Some fans need to stop going to Mercedes Benz! AB is okay with the mediocre product because fans continue to spend money. Stop going to the game and buy Sunday ticket for like $50 now!

Just graduated college… Falcons haven’t made the playoffs since I was a freshman in high school. Over 1/3 of my life is this playoff drought. Disgusting.

Schefter: Michael Penix Jr.’s injury potentially season ending.
Will seek second opinion.
There is damage to Penix’s left ACL, which could mean full reconstruction, per RapSheet.
We’ve hit rock bottom.
Drake London will miss next week and potentially beyond with a PCL sprain.
Looking at Atlanta’s cap space for 2026, it’s not pretty.
They’re currently looking at ~$4M in space and not a lot of wiggle room.
But, they can open up ~$33M in cap space with one move: Trading Kirk Cousins after June 1.
Of course, that would be after free agency.
Not good.
Michael Penix Jr. during the Falcons 5-game losing streak (he didn’t play vs Miami):
+ 60% completion
+ 203 passing YPG
+ 5 passing TDs
+ 0 INTs
+ 93.8 passer rating
When the Falcons take the field next Sunday, it will have been 40 days since they last won a game.
Atlanta last won October 13 vs Buffalo.
The Falcons really interviewed Jim Harbaugh, Bill Belichick, Mike MacDonald, Mike Vrabel, and said “yeah actually we’re gonna re-hire the guy we fired a few years ago”
Michael Penix Jr. hasn’t thrown an interception since September 28
The Falcons are single handedly keeping Bryce Young’s career alive
