We’re kicking off our Falcons player profile series with a look at the projected starters. We continue our CB preview with second-year player and presumptive starter in the slot Kendall Sheffield.
We’re in the depths of the offseason here at The Falcoholic, and there has been little to nothing in the way of interesting news in ages. So, we’ll have to make some content of our own in the meantime. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be bringing you a...

Fact: When life hands Matt Ryan lemons, he makes orange juice
Franchise quarterback Matthew Thomas Ryan became the subject of a ridiculous Twitter debate this week. The subject: his Hall of Fame credentials. For whatever reason, the uninformed masses love to go after Ryan, notwithstanding his body of work. It’s illogical and frankly it doesn’t really matter if he’s cemented his Hall of Fame credentials yet, because he’s still one of the best...

In his very first game in Atlanta, the Burner set a mark that will be difficult to surpass.
We’ve been talking a lot about records lately, because it’s fun to see where players stand on the all-time NFL leaderboards. Now we’ll turn our eyes to some franchise records, and specifically the ones that I think could stand for a long, long time, if not forever.
Let’s kick things off with Michael Turner. The Burner is a...

Buckle up, because we are not having a good time.
We’ve taken a spin through history and discovered that Falcons players and even coaches rank surprisingly high on the all-time NFL leaderboards for a variety of stats. Those articles probably made you feel pretty good about having some true league greats on this football team, and they certainly made me feel that way.
Unfortunately, it’s time to look at how the teams ranks overall in NFL...

The Falcons have declared July 10th Julio’s day, so let’s celebrate #11 a bit.
It’s July 10th, and the Falcons have justly declared it JUL10 day. Get it? I hope you get it.
I’m sure the team will have plenty of highlights and interesting articles today to properly honor the greatest receiver in team history, a man who right after Roddy White and is somehow going to smash all the records Roddy set in his decade with the Falcons. I thought...

It doesn’t make much sense when you type it out like that, does it?
The NFL’s plans for a 2020 season are a work in progress, to put it mildly. Training camp is weeks away but there are major questions that are entirely unresolved, and the NFLPA is digging its heels in as the NFL sorts out how many fans can be in the stands, what kind of protocols will be in place to keep players safe, and much more.
It’s difficult to blame...

A young collection of skill with some intriguing additions this offseason.
Integral to the highly disappointing 1-7 start to the 2019 season was the abundant amount of defensive woes for the Atlanta Falcons. By the time the Falcons were on the road against the Saints in Week 10, the team had already relinquished five games of 360 or more total yards allowed, registered just seven total sacks, and four total takeaways. Simply put, things were brutal.
A...

Julio Jones can do it all at the wide receiver position
The Atlanta Falcons go into the 2020 season with playoff aspirations, as a side whose identity remains on the offensive side of the football.
Just like any other team, the Falcons boast a group of players who are more important than anyone else on each side of the ball.
The performance of every player on this list will be crucial to the team’s success in 2020. I would like to just note that this is not...
You probably guessed this isn’t pretty and sadly, you’re right.
We come to the end of our little series on where players and now coaches rank on the all-time leaderboards across NFL history.
I think what we’ve seen is that especially on offense, the Falcons have had some true greats and some forgotten, excellent players who made their marks on the history books in ways I didn’t fully appreciate. Tragically, the franchise hasn’t matched their success, but it’s still fun to take a...

Thursday links.
It’s Thursday, and like most of the days of the week unless we’re feeling unflinchingly lazy, we’ve got a new set of Falcoholinks. Read on for the latest.
Punters are people, tooMatt Bosher removed the soul from Kenjon Barner’s body in 2019, a hit so prodigious that it was sports show fodder for the ensuing week. This week we’re not tracking top hits by punters — because certainly there would be no debate in that regard...

Fact: Deion Sanders invented shoelaces
Welcome to “Pivotal moments in Falcons history,” a new series examining the most important moments in Atlanta Falcons history. This team has experienced its fair share of ups, downs, and embarrassing moments. Let’s re-live the mediocrity.
The year is 1989. The Falcons use the 5th overall pick in the NFL Draft to select Deion Sanders. Sanders is a dynamic Florida State product that plays both baseball and...

JC Tretter warns the season is on the line.
Only a few months ago, the NFL said the coronavirus will not impact the season. Surely, with plenty of time to prepare, things will all blow over. The conoravirus has since blown through every single NFL plan like Michael Turner running over defensive backs, and has thrown wrenches in their plans like Michael Turner tossing Eric Weems into oncoming defenders.
The early March timeline has changed a lot, with the Annual...

Matt Bosher is one of the most efficient punters in NFL history, to the surprise of few.
We’re on to punting! How fun.
You would likely expect the Falcons to have some punters on the all-time list, for reasons that range from the positive (Matt Bosher is really good) to the negative (the Falcons were really bad for a long time). You would be absolutely correct in that assumption, but maybe some of the names will surprise you.
Let’s get to it!...

Fact: Matt Ryan’s ears don’t contain any wax whatsoever
Happy Wednesday, Falcoholics! It’s an overcast day in the neighborhood, and I’m not sure if I want you to be my neighbor. I’ll think about it.
Also, just a heads up, our links will start to smell unless you refrigerate them.
