The Falcons are preparing for their first primetime game since Marcus Mariota became an internet meme throwing from his back on a rainy night in Charlotte against the Panthers. The Falcons are coming off an embarrassing loss at home to begin the Raheem Morris era in which the Steelers didn’t score a single touchdown. The
Generally speaking, it’s better to be even-keeled than up and down, never getting too high or too low; however, the Falcons don’t really have the luxury of telling people to relax. Following a deflating loss to the Steelers, the Falcons turn around and draw the Eagles on Monday Night Football. There are 16 games left
The Falcons were the only team in the NFL to not see a rookie from the 2024 draft class take a single snap on offense or defense. That’s right. From Atlanta’s rookie class, not a single player saw the field outside of special teams last Sunday against the Steelers, some weren’t even active, including their
The Falcons have had a revolving door at cornerback opposite of A.J. Terrell, and it continued last week with Mike Hughes getting the start before rotating with Clark Phillips III in the second half.

There were a lot of dissapointments around the NFL in Week 1. The Browns are wondering if Deshaun Watson is ever going to be the quarterback he was in Houston. The Bengals were the week’s largest favorites and lost outright, but the Falcons are right there among the most disappointing season debuts. After investing $180
This has been the season from hell for the Braves, and it continued on Tuesday, as Reynaldo Lopez left the game after just one inning. It was later revealed that he had right shoulder inflammation, and the club was optimistic. Well, we should know by now that Atlanta isn’t that lucky. Lopez was placed on
The Falcons are trying to forget about their Week 1 showing against the Steelers, but several questions needed answers, and Raheem Morris did that. However, there was something peculiar. Michael Penix Jr. answered for Kirk Cousins. In a conversation with Josh Kendall of The Athletic, Penix said Cousins was “calm and collected through the whole
The Falcons came into the season with many believing they were the favorites to win the NFC South, a feat they have not accomplished since 2016. With Kirk Cousins, that seemed probable. I mean, a Desmond Ridder-led Falcons team split with the Buccaneers and Saints last year. After Week 1, it seems Atlanta is no
