The Falcons have shuffled up the QB room from last year considerably. Most notably, Kirk Cousins was brought in after signing a lucrative four-year deal that came with $100 million in guarantees, and Desmond Ridder was shipped out in a trade with the Cardinals for Rondale Moore. The Ridder trade was a bit of a
Despite all of the rumors and reports, nobody, not even the Falcons, is quite sure who will be joining the organization during the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday. Most expect the Falcons to take a defensive player because of their needs on that side of the ball, particularly off the edge and
The Braves are without three All-Stars, and the superstars that are playing every day are not performing up to expectations, yet they keep winning. After last night’s win over the Marlins, Atlanta sits at 15-6 on the season, the best record in the National League and a game clear of the Phillies in the NL
Coming into the season, one of the most attractive aspects of the Braves roster compared to previous years was the pitching depth.

Ozzie Albies fractured his right big toe last week after he was hit by a pitch. Initially, it sounded like he would miss at least a few weeks, if not over a month, but it’s become clear over the last few days that it may be much shorter than that. As of yesterday, he was
Somehow, Matt Ryan was one of the more polarizing athletes ever to represent the city of Atlanta. Many believe he should be a first-ballot Hall of Famer. Others could never accept that not only did he replace Michael Vick, one of the most beloved athletes in Atlanta history, but he also outperformed Vick at every
Ever since their run to the Eastern Conference Finals a few years ago, it has been all downhill for the Hawks. The team has taken a step back with each passing season, the head coach and general manager both decided to step away due to a dysfunctional culture, and the few big swings the team
The Braves are without three All-Stars right now, but positive updates came to light on all three of them over the weekend. Spencer Strider may be out for the entire season, but they are expecting a quicker recovery after undergoing internal brace surgery rather than the much more common Tommy John surgery. The cause of
