It’s been eight years since the Atlanta Falcons played for an NFC championship, 14 years since their lone conference title and Super Bowl berth, with years of ups and downs in-between.Yet fans geared up for today’s NFC title game at the Georgia Dome say this year’s team has what it takes to go the distance.What makes today’s championship game against San Francisco different? According to Falcons fans at Crossroads Bar & Grill in Flowery Branch, this is a different team than the one that lost at Philadelphia in 2005, with better coaching and the Georgia Dome on its side.“I’ve lived in Atlanta my whole life. I’m going to the game, sixth row,” said 24-year-old Jordan Otting, bartender at Crossroads.
