They took a huge hit in their ranking when they lost to the Panthers, dropping them behind the Bucs and Saints in the NFC race.

They have to win all the upcoming matches somehow.

A loss to the Bears and/or Saints will make their chances for playoff directly to zero percent.

Also, only their winning is not sufficient, the Buccaneers will have to lose both their remaining games.

Atlanta will have to depend on the matches of many other teams and their wins and losses.

To make the wild card, the Atlanta Falcons would have to swipe one of the final two spots.

Finally, it can be said that it mostly depends on luck even after winning the remaining matches.
