The only other routing with a direct flight over the ocean from ATL would require a 8+ hour layover in Rome.
Depends on the security check. If the arriving & departing gates are in the same terminal, it should be enough. I had a 1:45 hour connection once and barely made it. Security check was longer than JFK cause Italian Police was slow and rude. The line was moving 1 person/minute so when I asked if I can jump infront of the line as my flight was about to leave, she said (in a broken accent) "This is Europe sir, not America."
