The Falcons are aiming for its fifth victory in the current NFL season when they visit the Philadelphia Eagles on October 17.

Sporting an impressive 4-1 win-loss record the Falcons are picked to win their game against the Eagles 2-3 record,who is missing the services of its star quarterback Michael Vick and some other important players of the team.

The Falcons have a great NFL season this year due to the impressive performance of its stars quarterback Matt Ryan, running-back Michael Turner and wide receiver Roddy White.

Under the guidance of its coach Mike Smith, the Falcons have an impressive year in the current NFL season due to its superb offence and very tough defense.

In the 2010 NFL season, the Falcons leads in defense,with 10 interceptions while collecting three fumbles and holding opposing QBs to a 72.5 rating.

Smith was able to successfully incorporate to the team the importance of a good offence and reliable defense to get wins in the NFL.

With the odds on its side, the Eagles lead by back-up quarterback Kevin Kolb need to have an A-game if they wish to defeat the Falcons in-front of their fans on Sunday.

Kolb needs to seek ways to score and distribute the ball to his teammates so that they can upset the Falcons.

The Eagles also needs to play tough defense and frustrate Ryan so that he cannot properly orchestrate plays for the Falcons.
