The Falcons aren’t going to scare many teams on paper. If they’re to upset a few opponents this year, it will come from some unlikely sources, including Arthur Smith and his staff out-coaching opposing staffs.

Atlanta Falcons rookie tight end Kyle Pitts was a force for the Atlanta Falcons offense and havoc for other teams’s defenses during his first year in the NFL.
The off-season for the Atlanta Falcons so far has been one to remember and not in a good way. Former quarterback Matt Ryan is now on the Indianapolis Colts.
The curl-flat concept is a pretty basic passing concept run at all levels of football, from high school to the pro ranks. Also known as the Hank Concept,
Even in his short NFL career, Marcus Mariota is a seasoned veteran. The 28-year-old quarterback is on his third team and playing for his sixth head coach.
For much of the 21st century, the NFL has been dominated by Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and other veterans. However, the lifeline of the league is based on the younger generation of stars like Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Justin Jefferson, and Nick Bosa.
The Falcons roster currently sits at 90 players but will quickly be trimmed to 53 by August 30th. While the front office and coaching staff rigorously evaluate the team’s personnel, I’m going to skip the hard part and go directly to predicting the final 53-man roster.

Your Atlanta Falcons have had quite a bit of stability at safety over the past decade, drafting two duos who held down starting...

The Falcons have made notable moves this offseason. Most notably, trading Matt Ryan to Indianapolis and selecting Drake London in the NFL Draft. On the flip side, there have been moves that don’t seem as notable.
Kyle Pitts is making a name for himself after a stellar rookie season with the Falcons. The former 4th-round pick in the 2021 NFL draft posted 1,026 receiving yards with 68 catches, followed by a touchdown as well as a Pro Bowl appearance.
Falcons Scott Bair of the team’s official site expects Falcons WR Bryan Edwards to make a “bigger impact than people expect” given he’s a large target, can make plays in traffic, and is a deep threat. Bair believes that the presence of WR Drake London and Edwards will help free up coverage for TE Kyle Pitts.
A new era is upon Atlanta sports. For the lifelong sports fans of the Georgia capital, it’s been a painful few years. Witnessing the departure of multiple sports legends, such as Matt Ryan of the Falcons, or Freddie Freeman of the Braves, fans are waiting for the next chapter of Atlanta sports.

The last time the Falcons had a winning record was back in 2017. The team was quite different during this time. Players such as Desmond Trufant, Keanu Neal, Brian Poole, Julio Jones, Devonta Freeman, and Matt Ryan were on the team.
The toss sweep is one of the most basic plays in football. In Cordarelle Patterson, Arthur Smith and the Falcons have a 6’2 227 pound hybrid running back/receiver who is perfect for the outside running and power needed when running the sweep.
