What I saw in that game was...
Shanahan did start play calling conservatively, but it was more about the defense not blitzing or putting pressure on Brady that lead to his comeback more than the Falcons offense.

We also saw the power of having a true franchise quarterback. You see it with Brees, Rogers, Stafford. I saw it in 2012 with the RG (only year that I saw it). When the players around Brady raise their game because of the confidence that they have in him to achieve.

Speed Kills. The skins should take a page out of Atlanta book for player selection. Because if they didn't take their foot off the gas they would have beat the Pats.
