Matt Ryan may be in the booth for CBS right now, but the former Falcons signal caller is clearly looking for an opportunity to return to the field. According to Jay Glazier on Fox’s pregame show before the Sunday slate, Ryan has “reached out” to the Jets to offer his services. Carson Wentz was also included
The Falcons travel to Detroit to face the Lions in what should be one of the better games of the Week 3 NFL slate. There are a number of storylines to watch in this one; Calais Campbell is on the cusp of history, and injuries could play a major role in accomplishing that feat. The
The Falcons have selected skill players with three straight top 10 draft picks, but the best of the bunch has only played two games thus far. Kyle Pitts and Drake London are phenomenal players, breaking rookie records in their first seasons, respectively, but what Bijan Robinson is doing puts their accomplishments to shame. In his
Winning is a cure-all, and there’s no better proof of that than on Sundays in Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Since its inception, the Falcons‘ home has been a place where opposing fan bases take over. The club has never played a playoff game in the Benz, and it’s been a ghost town on game days for the
In the NFL, it’s sometimes not about who you play but when you play them. That rings true for the Falcons, who will seemingly have another health advantage over the opponents as multiple Lions nurse injuries. Dam Campbell officially ruled out offensive lineman Halapoulivaati Vaitai and cornerback Emmanuel Moseley; both critical to the Lions’ success
The Falcons have been relatively healthy since the season began. The only significant injury came in the offseason when Avery Williams suffered a non-contact season-ending injury. Cordarrelle Patterson and Jeff Okudah have yet to make their 2023 debuts, but they seem to be trending toward playing against the Lions on Sunday. Though they’ve both been
The Falcons have been favorites in each of their first two games, but that’s changing as they travel to Detroit to take on the hard-nosed Lions. Dan Campbell‘s club is currently more than field goal betting favorites, but it’s giving media pundits a headache to pick the winner regardless of what Vegas is saying. On
The Falcons have a productive offense, behind their trio of top 10 picks and complementary pieces. The revolution has come on the other side of the ball. The defense, under Ryan Nielsen with a slew of new faces, is one of the best units in football, holding opposing offenses to just 17.0 points per game,
It seems the Falcons may have dodged a $230 million-sized bullet by not landing Deshaun Watson more than a year ago. In 2022, the Browns sent three first-round picks, a third-round pick, and two fourth-round picks to the Texans to acquire Deshaun Watson, who received an unprecedented fully guaranteed, five-year, $230 million deal shortly after
Terry Fontenot and Arthur Smith described drafting Bijan Robinson 8th overall as an easy decision. From an off-the-field perspective, it’s been a home run. He’s a role model, reliable, and extremely (maybe most importantly) marketable. The Falcons found the face of their franchise, regardless of who is under center. However, what has everyone across the
