Latest blog entries from Atlanta teams across every league
The Pittsburgh Steelers were very active to kickoff the opening day of legal tampering, the unofficial beginning of the new league year. In total, Pittsburgh made six moves, ranging from re-signings, free agent signings, and trades. In light of those moves, these are my grades for every one of them. CB Asante Samuel Re-signing Samuel […]
The Atlanta Falcons were persistently linked to Tua Tagovailoa well before we knew the Miami Dolphins were going to release him. The thought of trading for Tua’s giant contract made me physically ill, especially with his history of concussions and lackluster 2025 season. But the Falcons, who were also linked to Joe Flacco, waited out […]
Don’t look now, but the Atlanta Hawks are picking up a bit of momentum as we enter the closing stretch of the NBA season. Atlanta has won seven out of their last eight games – including the last six in a row – and have opened up a commanding five-and-a-half game lead over the 11th […]
The Falcons have been quite busy during the opening salvo of legal tampering, with most of their reported/not yet official signings landing on the offensive side of the ball. That doesn’t mean they’ve ignored defense, however. Both of their signings thus far have been young players with some starting experience who look like rotational players […]
Shortly after releasing quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, reports came in that he could be bound to Atlanta. Instead, a different former Dolphin is now a Falcon.
On Monday morning, it was announced that the Dolphins were cutting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa with a post-June 1st designation at the start of the league year. On Monday afternoon, it was announced that the Atlanta Falcons are expected to sign Tagovailoa — as they were strongly pursuing the former number five overall pick from the […]
Spring Training tends to be silly, and that was perhaps best exemplified by Monday afternoon’s game against the Twins. The Braves won 9-8, but gave up a whopping five homers. I guess a 12/0 K/BB ratio is the saving grace when you give up five homers, but considering the Braves didn’t hit any homers, it […]
The Falcons have a reported flurry of signings on offense (QB Tua Tagovailoa likely, WRs Jahan Dotson and Olamide Zaccheaus, TE Austin Hooper) and special teams (K Nick Folk, P Jake Bailey), but hadn’t touched defense yet. That all changed with the signing of Cameron Thomas. That last statement probably landed less dramatically than intended […]
The Atlanta Falcons have clearly made it a point of emphasis to rebuild their pass catching options at the onset of free agency, signing former first round pick out of Penn State Jahan Dotson to go along with former Falcons making reunions in Olamide Zaccheaus and Austin Hooper. Dotson will sign a 2-year deal with […]
There’s still a bit of uncertainty as to what the Eagles’ wide receiver room will look like in 2026, but one player we do know WON’T be back in Philadelphia is Jahan Dotson. The Birds’ WR3 is reportedly heading to the Atlanta Falcons on a two-year deal worth $15 million and includes $10 million guaranteed, […]
The 2025 season had many problems for the Atlanta Falcons, but kicker was certainly one of them. After Younghoe Koo faltered and Parker Romo followed, Zane Gonzalez lent some stability to the position. Despite that strong finish, however, it appears Gonzalez will not be the team’s kicker in 2026. That will be 41-year-old Nick Folk, […]
After two seasons with the New England Patriots, Austin Hooper will be returning to the organization that filled out his draft card. The veteran tight end has agreed to terms on a one-year, $3.25 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons, NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport reported as the league’s tampering window opened on Monday. Hooper, 31, […]
As the WBC rages on, the Grapefruit League plods along as well. Today, the Braves will give Carlos Carrasco a chance to eat some more exhibition innings as they give their regulars a few hacks in a home game against the Twins. Minnesota is sending a mixed bag of starters and not-starters, and will be […]
The Dolphins have informed Tua Tagovailoa that he will be released once the new league year officially begins this week, and word on the street is that the Falcons are highly interested in the quarterback. According to NFL insiders Mike Garafolo, Tom Pelissero, and Ian Rapoport, the Falcons are signing Tua. Tagovailoa spent the first […]
That did not take long. The Miami Dolphins on Monday announced they would be releasing quarterback Tua Tagovailoa when the new league year begins on Wednesday. Just a few hours later, at it looks like the former Pro Bowl quarterback may already have a landing spot. According to multiple reports, including from NFL Network’s Tom […]

A mix of game types happened on Sunday — some close (and maybe surprisingly so), some where a team obliterated another. If you’re only here to read about the Braves, well: Japan 4, Australia 3. Who had Japan beating a team in pool play by a run or less? After not quite smashing Korea, this […]
On Sunday, the Braves lost to the Rays 9-8 in a game that was no too enjoyable if you like good pitching. Bryce Elder was rocked from the start, while Joey Wentz left the game due to a knee injury (early indications are it is not serious.) Overall, the Braves have got good production from […]
Maybe one day the Sixers can have nice things. Tyrese Maxey suffered a sprain of his right pinky in the team’s loss to the Atlanta Hawks Saturday night. He will miss the next two games and undergo additional testing, per the Sixers. The play occurred with 16.2 seconds left in the game. Maxey and Adem […]
Bryce Elder had a rough one on the mound at Charlotte Sports Park against the Rays, as he ended up conceding more runs than innings pitched in what turned out to be a battle of the bats between the Atlanta Braves and Tampa Bay in spring training action. It was clear from the jump that […]
It’s time for another Bryce Elder spring training start, as the Atlanta Braves continue to make their way through the Grapefruit League. For those keeping track at home, the Braves are actually sitting on top of the Grapefruit League standings, which is surely the greatest achievement that this team has accomplished in quite some time, […]
Friday was a day for blowouts. Saturday was a day for comebacks, and featured the first two walkoffs in WBC history. If you’re only here to read about the Braves, well: On we go to the games… Japan 8, Korea 6. These two teams played a bit of a barnburner while you were sleeping. Korea […]
The Braves 2025 season was.. yeah. Let’s go with unpredictable. Not fun for sure. The staff’s predictions was definitely not in the 70ish win range. But we had some decent submissions from last year. I mean, we were on our game. Blame the injuries and the HR/FB monster. Hey, let’s look at last year’s predictions […]
Didier Fuentes looked absolutely dominant on Saturday, drawing 7 whiffs on just 25 pitches and pumping up to 99 MPH with his fastball. He did so, however, throwing only two pitches and throwing his four-seamer 80% of the time. It will be interesting to see what additional pitches he adds to his arsenal this season, […]
