The show goes on for the struggling Falcons, who find themselves under water and running out of oxygen quickly, after suffering their fourth consecutive defeat.

Sitting at 3-6, the vibes could not be worse for this franchise and among this fanbase, as they gear up for a meeting against a Carolina Panthers team which is in the midst of their best season in years and who humiliated this very Falcons team 30-0 in Charlotte, in Week 3.

There’s not much to say about this season other than that we are in the midst of a slow moving car crash, and...

When the Atlanta Falcons worked out a trio of wide receivers earlier this week, the thought crossed my mind that Darnell Mooney was on the verge of getting the Ray-Ray McCloud treatment and being unceremoniously and inexplicably dumped during the regular season.

It seems far-fetched at first, but given the lack of production from Mooney thus far this year, it’s not as if the team would be losing much on the field.

Mooney’s 2025 fall-off has reached epic proportions

Mooney has been one of the league’s least reliable pass catchers this year, thanks to frequent drops, with the [highest...

The Falcons rekindle their rivalry with their little brother team that’s sort of been punching them in the face in recent times when they welcome the Carolina Panthers into their confines.

I use the term “little brother” because Atlanta has statistically owned this rivalry since Carolina’s inception in 1995, with a 37-24 all time lead in a series where both teams have met twice a year.

Despite the historic success, the Birds have not swept the Panthers since 2019, as both teams have split the series every single year from 2020 and on. Carolina has enjoyed some very recent success,...

Welcome back, Atlanta Falcons fans. It’s not even Thanksgiving, and Atlanta is already flirting with mock-draft season. Making things spicier this year: the Falcons’ 2026 first-round pick now belongs to the Los Angeles Rams after Atlanta moved up for EDGE James Pearce Jr.

I’m not here to re-litigate the trade. Pearce’s first full sack last week was one of the sparks that kept Atlanta in the fight against a strong Colts team, even if the defense also surrendered the most rushing yards in a single game in franchise history.

That contrast is exactly why this conversation matters.

With the sun...

I’ll admit, when I first saw reports about what Michael Penix Jr. said about the support he gets off the field, I was concerned. The way it was being reported made it sound like Penix claimed to not have support on the sideline — and let’s be real, if that were the case it would absolutely be malpractice and everyone should be fired.

But then I went to the tape, and that’s not really what he said at all.

He was talking about the support he has outside of the building; the mental and emotional support of his fiancée and...

After nearly knocking off the Patriots in Week 9, the Falcons are hoping to finish the job against the Colts and salvage a season that’s rapidly slipping away. They’ll have to do so across the Atlantic, and here’s how you can watch.

The Falcons return stateside with an albatross of a four-game losing streak in tow, where they will host the division rival Panthers at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday. Atlanta hung with Indianapolis in Berlin, but was ultimately undone by an abysmal passing game and costly special teams errors. Despite the loss, the Falcons are favored by 3.5 points over the Panthers on Sunday, per FanDuel Sportsbook.

When these two foes last met in Week 3, the Panthers blanked the Falcons 30-0 in Charlotte. It was the worst loss Atlanta had suffered in quite some time, which would be topped a month...

The Falcons return home in the midst of a four-game losing streak to face the Panthers with both teams fighting for their playoff lives. Can Atlanta get back on track and into the win column? Kevin Knight breaks down the injury report for both teams, the matchups to watch on offense and defense, and whether or not there’s still hope for the Falcons in 2025.

Morale seems to be at an all-time low around Flowery Branch. Press conference quotes reveal a team in turmoil that’s struggling to find its way out of the storm.

Are the Atlanta Falcons too far gone, and is this season worth saving? Let’s discuss this week’s biggest question.

A barrage of quotes and misquotes

Social media was set ablaze with Michael Penix quotes, and everyone seemed to leave with their own interpretation. One thing was clear: the quarterback sounded defeated and was no longer speaking with the confidence fans had heard in the preseason. Raheem Morris recited his mantras:...

The Atlanta Falcons want to win. This is not a team where the owner’s press conferences are more important than the product on the field, or a family operation where every penny must be carefully managed. Arthur Blank will spend, the team will pursue name free agents and swing big, dramatic trades, and coaching staffs will be juggled. The Atlanta Falcons want to win, but they don’t know how to win. They don’t know how to win because they never quite understand the moment they’re in.

What do I mean by that? It’s been obvious for some time now that...
