Nobody is healthy this time of year, but the Falcons are a special kind of banged up ahead of Week 9, with just about every notable name on the roster featured on the injury report.

The bad news is 14 players are on the injury report, most of which are significant contributors. The promising news is they all practiced in some capacity on Thursday.

But in all likelihood, the Falcons are going to be short-handed on Sunday, and this injury bug couldn’t have come at a worse time. The Falcons are set to take on the Patriots, who have won five in a row, then travel to Germany to face the 7-1 Colts, the current owners of the best record in the NFL. The Falcons desperately need to find a way to split this two-game stretch at the very least, or their playoff hopes will be completely dashed by mid-November.
