While the 2014 Atlanta Falcons displayed a lot of inconsistency throughout last season and spent the majority of the year under .500, they actually had a legitimate shot of winning the NFC South. In fact, at one juncture towards the end, they were the ones out in front who controlled their own playoff destiny, despite […]
The Atlanta Falcons parted ways with coach Mike Smith after seven seasons. This change in coaching came after two losing seasons, in which they finished third in the NFC South. Last season, Atlanta went 6-10 overall with a record of 6-6 vs. NFC opponents. Although they possessed the best NFC South Division record, 5-1, starting […]
The Atlanta Falcons are still waiting to announce what everybody already knows, that Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn will be their new head coach. Whilst the Falcons will have to wait until after the Super Bowl to officially announce Quinn, reports suggest that they have been putting together the rest of the coaching staff […]
Working on the assumption that the current Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn will be the next head coach of the Atlanta Falcons here is a look at who the front runners could be for the defensive coordinator position Ken Norton Jr (Current Seahawks linebackers coach) As a player Norton won three consecutive Super Bowls […]

Preseason projections commonly had the Atlanta Falcons hovering around the .500 mark. With everything they had to achieve on both lines alone that was probably a fair conclusion to come to, it may have even been out of the mind of someone see’s a glass half full. With 3 games in the book it’s fair […]
I want to highlight two things right off the bat… One, the cornerback position (at least since the NFL became so pass heavy) spits out a new ‘best at the position’ once, sometimes twice a season. They’re all deserving but there’s a lot of turnover for the title of ‘best’. Two, this is not a […]
It started so well for the Atlanta Falcons. We all went absolutely nuts, and to this day I’m pretty sure you all heard me yelling from my sofa in England as we squeaked past the Saints in overtime. Matty Ice lived up to his moniker and more. We bounded into Week 2, the Cincinnati Bengals […]
