To nobody’s surprise, Carson Beck was highly sought after once he entered the transfer portal. According to Matt Hayes, Georgia wanted him back for the 2025 campaign, but they weren’t alone. Alabama was the second program to call. Some Georgia fans will question the validity of this report, but I’m not sure why. Beck went
With pitchers and catchers reporting to Spring Training in about a month, Braves Country is getting increasingly anxious that Alex Anthopoulos hasn’t made a single notable move, but a recent report Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic should put Anthony Santander and Jack Flaherty on Atlanta’s radar. Per Rosenthal and Sammon, the two
The top head coaching candidate this hiring cycle is Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, and it’s not particularly close, but former Georgia offensive coordinator and current Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken deserves more recognition. Mike Vrabel has already been hired, leaving Johnson as the candidate everyone else wants, but Monken is no consolation prize. Since
Every offseason, a disgruntled NFL star becomes available, and the next one could attract the Falcons if the Packers are willing to trade Jaire Alexander. The All-Pro corner had an injury-riddled season, and Alexander left Green Bay with a lot of unanswered questions… literally. According to Kelly Hallinan of NBC 26, the 27-year-old declined to
The Falcons have continued their search for a new defensive coordinator following the firing of Jimmy Lake, with the latest news coming from Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports, who reports that the Falcons are interviewing Wink Martindale.

With the Falcons searching for a Jimmy Lake replacement, I need fans to temper expectations. They’ve officially begun the process by getting Lou Anarumo on the books for an interview this week, but as fans usually do, a lot of people in Atlanta are aiming for something much higher. The hottest defensive coordinator candidate is Robert
The Falcons didn’t wait long to begin the process of finding Jimmy Lake’s successor. After firing the defensive coordinator on Saturday, the organization has already penciled Lou Anarumo in for an interview this week, according to NFL Network’s Colleen Wolfe. Anarumo was the Bengals defensive coordinator but was fired once Cincinnati’s season ended. The veteran
The Falcons offseason is going to be defined by two things — Kirk Cousins and the defense. They will have to explore ways of getting rid of the veteran while supporting their franchise quarterback in Michael Penix Jr. with a quality defense. Terry Fontenot discussed Cousins’ future with the organization in his season-ending press conference,
Nobody likes to waste time quite like the Atlanta Falcons, and this persisted in 2024 as the organization continued down a path with no cohesive direction. Arthur Blank’s desire to get out of quarterback purgatory effectively limited the club’s ceiling this year and next. The motivation to draft Michael Penix Jr. a mere weeks after
While Falcons fans watched the Wild Card weekend from the couch, there were plenty of old friends on the big stage. Most notably Commanders head coach Dan Quinn and Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, who experienced wildly different outcomes in the first round of the postseason. In Baltimore, Smith’s offense floundered. In Tampa Bay, Quinn’s
