The NFL sets prices for playoff games. Dates and times will be announced by the league at a later date.
“We are excited for our fans that we have qualified to return to the playoffs,” Falcons President Rich McKay said in a statement.
To address season ticket holders’ concerns about getting the season ticket renewal forms at the same time they may be buying playoff tickets, the team pushed the deadline back for and is offering an online “pay as we play” payment option.
The Falcons (10-5) could finish with the No. 2, No. 5 or No. 6 seeds in the playoffs. If they are the No. 5 or No. 6 seeds, they will open on the road.
If they are the No. 5 seed, they could potentially host just one game, the NFC championship only against the No. 6 seed.
If they are the No. 6 seed, they will not host any playoff games.
