Pressure: 2004 NFC Divisional Playoff Game: St. Louis Rams at Atlanta Falcons (24x40)

Udgivelsesdato: Jan 19, 2005

""Pressure"" is the operative word in any playoff game. Atlanta, hosting the NFC Divisional Playoff against the Rams January 15, 2005, had a pressure performer in Michael Vick. Just as pressure-tested for this playoff was the Falcons' defense, which shut down St. Louis in the second half. Jim Mora Jr. had, in just his first full season as a head coach, both a 47-17 victory in his first post-season game and a trip to the NFC Championship Game eight days later.
