First off, as has been mentioned already, last year's Atlanta game shut the door on the Jeff Fisher Era and ushered in the McVay Era.

Second, as has also been mentioned, the Rams last playoff game was against Atlanta. Kind of the end of the GSOT Era.

Then you can also say the GSOT Era truely began when the Rams beat, the then defending NFC champs Atlanta Falcons, in their 2nd game in 99' season, 35-7.

Throw in the Rams winning SB 34 in Atlanta, and the long time division rivalry with Atlanta, although they were only occasionally good, it is only fitting that McVay's 1st post season game is against Atlanta. Hopefully signaling the start of a long run of post season success under McVay.
