  • Taco Mac Goes Crazy After Kick

    4 months, 1 week ago

    We all know what it looked like inside the Georgia Dome when Julio Jones intercepted Russell Wilson and the clock hit all zeroes, giving the Falcons their first playoff victory under head coach Mike Smith. Watch the video above to see what it was like inside the Taco Mac at Lindbergh, as the place erupts [...]

  • Game-Winning Situation Not New to Falcons

    4 months, 1 week ago

    Sunday afternoon around 3:55 p.m. felt like deja vu. The Falcons had the game in hand only to have the opponent storm back and take a lead. Matt Ryan hits the field. There’s not much time. There’s not much chance. There’s not much hope. Yet, somehow, someway, the Falcons find a way to win. We’ve [...]

  • Babineaux Sack Leaves Seattle Scoreless

    4 months, 1 week ago

    If you were watching the end of the second quarter Sunday, the chain of events probably looked familiar. The opponent was knocking on the door, our of timeouts and poised to score. This time, Russell Wilson dropped back to pass from the Falcons’ 11-yard line and was immediately met by defensive tackle Jonathan Babineaux. The [...]

  • Falcons Get Run Game Going Early

    4 months, 1 week ago

    The Falcons were supposed to struggle with the run and stopping it, but if that’s the way it was pre-written, no one told them. With less than five minutes left in the second quarter, the Falcons had already racked up 133 rushing yards, with Michael Turner running effectively and Jacquizz Rodgers providing ridiculous 45-yard runs [...]

  • Smith Updates Condition of Injured Falcons

    4 months, 3 weeks ago

    The last thing anyone — from fans to players to coaches — wanted to see in Sunday’s 22-17 loss to the Buccaneers was an injury, no matter how severe. The nature of football, however, sometimes has other ideas, and the Falcons lost two starters for the game in the process. Cornerback Dunta Robinson left the [...]

  • Falcons Get Back to Focusing on Themselves

    4 months, 3 weeks ago

    The Falcons have been in this situation before. They’ve been 13-3 heading into the postseason with the NFC’s No. 1 seed. We remember how that turned out. Head coach Mike Smith has been intent on making the bye week before the divisional round playoff game different than it was in 2010. That year, Smith gave [...]

  • Ryan Breaks Bartkowski’s Touchdown Record

    4 months, 3 weeks ago

    Quarterback Matt Ryan has broken a bunch of Falcons records already this season, and he added a big one Sunday. A fourth-down pass from the Bucs’ 8-yard line to Harry Douglas put Ryan in the record books as the Falcons’ all-time single season passing touchdown leader. Ryan came into Sunday’s game against Tampa Bay tied [...]

  • Abraham Leaves Game with Ankle Injury

    4 months, 3 weeks ago

    More bad news in a game that could use less of it on the injury front. Defensive end John Abraham was carted from the sideline in the fourth quarter with an ankle injury. The injury came when he was rushing Bucs quarterback Josh Freeman and it appeared like he was bent backward over his ankle. [...]

  • White Comments on Health Late in Season

    4 months, 4 weeks ago

    Surrounded by reporters after Saturday night’s 31-18 win over the Lions, a game which saw Roddy White catch eight passes for 153 yards and two touchdowns, the star wide receiver was asked about a knee injury that has either kept him out or limited him in practice the past two weeks. White injured the knee [...]

  • Falcons Notice Distinct Difference This Time

    4 months, 4 weeks ago

    The Falcons’ locker room after Saturday night’s 31-18 win over the Detroit Lions was the same as it had been all year after the previous 13 wins. Happy. Loud. Fun. One thing it wasn’t was celebratory. It’s a sharp difference from two years ago when the Falcons earned the NFC’s top seed only to lose [...]
