This week, Blogging Dirty decided to pull back the curtain and highlight some of its staff writers real-time reactions to the Atlanta Falcons vs. Denver Broncos game.
Twitter has become a very prominent form of social media over the years. A very popular facet of twitter is the ability to see people’s reactions to certain events.
The Falcons went into Denver on Sunday and beat the defending Superbowl champions, 23-16.
Here is how the Blogging Dirty staff reacted in real time to the Falcons-Broncos game. These tweets are obviously from the perspective of Falcons fans.

DQ should really consider converting Ishmael to a hybrid LB full time. He's excellent in run support
— Matt Karoly (@mattkaroly) October 9, 2016
Halfway through the second, four possessions for each team. The Falcons are up 10-3. Defense is stepping up today. #RiseUp.
