Falcons head to Super Bowl after blowing out Packers 44-21 (Yahoo Sports)

While the raucous beats of ''Welcome To Atlanta'' blared through the Georgia Dome, the Falcons partied like it was 1999. Matt Ryan and Julio Jones teamed up for another dynamic performance, leading the Falcons to the big game for only the second time in franchise history with a 44-21 rout of the Green Bay Packers in the NFC championship game Sunday. The Falcons led 24-0 at halftime and tacked on another touchdown early in the second half, essentially turning the dome into the world's largest dance club for the rest of its final game, the deafening crowd relishing a shot at only the second major sports championship in Atlanta's history.
