The Atlanta Falcons are the only team remaining in the league that hasn’t announced who their starting quarterback will be, and it looks like they’re not close to making a decision. It’ll come down to Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Jr., and it’s uncertain who has the lead in the race at the moment. General […]

Real football is almost here. The preseason has come to an end, and we’re just 11 days from the Steelers kicking off their season at home against the Atlanta Falcons.

The Atlanta Falcons seemed to be taking a major gamble by waiving Zach Harrison, a talented player who has dealt with injuries over the last couple of years but has been consistently effective on the field. That gamble went well, though, as Harrison was not claimed and the Falcons were able to add him back […]

Now that training camp and the preseason are in the rearview mirror and the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 53-man roster appears set (for now), the focus shifts to the start of the regular season. Pittsburgh will open the regular season on Sept. 13 at Acrisure Stadium against the new-look Atlanta Falcons under a familiar face in first-year […]
The future may be now for Steelers rookie RT Max Iheanachor – specifically Sept. 13. Labeled a project – labeled, mind you — after the Steelers drafted him with the 21st overall pick in late April, Iheanachor could start in their season opener against the visiting Atlanta Falcons. Heck, he probably should. That seems absurd. […]

Cornerback Kyler Gordon’s status with the Chicago Bears is murky at best. The franchise added some extra depth at the position when they acquired Clark Phillips III in their Gervon Dexter trade with the Atlanta Falcons.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are under two weeks away from taking the field for their season opener at Acrisure Stadium against the Atlanta Falcons.

The Chicago Bears took a major gamble when they traded defensive tackle Gervon Dexter to the Atlanta Falcons. But Chicago did so knowing the depth they currently have on the roster.

For about two decades, the Falcons seemingly forgot it was okay to hit the quarterback. They rarely invested in their defensive front, and the result was an anemic pass rush that likely cost Matt Ryan a couple of Super Bowls. Finally, in 2025, that changed. The Falcons spent not one but two first-round picks on […]
