I said repeatedly this week that this was a game the Falcons couldn’t afford to lose. That had very little to do with big picture standings and upcoming schedules, though obviously those mattered to, and much more to do with how bad the Dolphins had looked thus far in 2025. If they got right against […]

Theoretically, Sunday’s game against the Dolphins should have been a win for the Falcons. The Dolphins are in shambles. They’ve lost to every team they’ve played except the still-winless-in-Week-8 Jets. But as we know all too well as Falcons fans, it’s any given Sunday in this league. And the Falcons’ inactive players for Sunday’s tilt […]

The Miami Dolphins are heading north this week to face the Atlanta Falcons. Despite the Falcons’ 3-3 record, few (meaning almost none) fans or talking heads give the Dolphins a chance to win this afternoon.

With the Atlanta Falcons set to face the Miami Dolphins in Week 8, there is plenty of intrigue involving this matchup.

Following another frustrating offensive performance and Ray-Ray McCloud’s release, there are growing conversations about the Falcons’ lethargic aerial attack. It’s not challenging defenses as it should be, given the significant investment at quarterback and across the pass-catching unit.
