Atlanta Falcons: Hype video released to get fans pumped for 2017 season
By Randy Gurzi
After ending the season just shy of their Super Bowl dreams, the Atlanta Falcons released a 2017 hype video fittingly titled “Unfinished Business”
The Atlanta Falcons may not have ended the season the way they wanted to after losing Super Bowl 51 in overtime, but they aren’t giving up. Head coach Dan Quinn is trying to get the team to embrace how bad the loss “sucked” as they try to use the heartache as fuel for the upcoming season.

Atlanta also went out and improved on defense by drafting defensive end Takkarist McKinley and linebacker Duke Riley. On top of that they signed one of the best defenders available in free agency in former Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Dontari Poe. If those moves weren’t enough to get fans pumped up, then maybe their recently released hype video “Unfinished Business” will do the trick.
In the video there are shots of downtown Atlanta as well as the soon-to-open Mercedes-Benz dome. After that there are several highlights from their explosive 2016 season.
Surely all the fans feel like things were left on the table from last season, so the video is fittingly titled and has to get everyone ready for the season to kick off. The first game for the Falcons is a road trip to face off with the Chicago Bears on September 10. They will then host the team they throttled in the NFC Championship game to open their new home. The Green Bay Packers come to town on Sunday Night Football for the Dirty Birds home opener.
