Atlanta Falcons 81 OVR

"Throw In The Damn Towel!" one Falcons fan who traveled from Logansville to LA to watch the team play could be heard screaming in the 3rd quarter.

This was supposed to be the test to see if the Falcons would be ready for primetime and they failed in epic fashion.

The defense was holding on for dear life, even getting a pick of J Herbert by LB F Oluokun, but the offense kept letting them down and giving the ball back to the Chargers.  Along with that, th...

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Raiders had to forfeit the Season opener to the Falcons.

The Falcons, instead of playing the game, had a light practice that turned into a team fun day at Top Golf.

At times the Falcons defense has been humbled this season.  Whether it was giving up big games to CMC, Miles Sanders or D Henry.

But the last two games the Falcoons have been able to keep oppoising running backs in check, last week it was J Taylor.  This week vs the Packers, they was able to hold J Carruthers to 33 yards on 16 carries.
