The Atlanta Falcons are the laughing stock of the NFL
By Joe Beasley
Missed tackles, horrible blocking even being involved in a fight with the NFL’s most feared defender, the Atlanta Falcons have officially blown up.
Each game, the fans of the Atlanta Falcons lose more and more hope but can you blame them? With a team like this, you wouldn’t expect them to be 1-6 and in contention for the number one overall draft pick.
This isn’t a team like the Miami Dolphins or the Washington Redskins, teams that more than likely will be outclassed every week because there aren’t as talented as the opposition. The Falcons can’t use that excuse.
They have Matt Ryan, when upright, is one of the best quarterbacks in the league but that’s the problem he hasn’t been able to stay on his feet. Devonta Freeman who has a solid game last week took two more steps back today and his frustration led to him being ejected from the game.
Not to mention that Ryan was knocked out of today’s game as well as Ito Smith. We now see why the Falcons drafted all those running backs…
The Falcons have become the laughing stock of the NFL. With a fan base that’s so passionate and expects the best game in and game out, they’ve let a whole city down. The Falcons have the city looking forward to basketball season and it’s only week 8.
It won’t happen during season but this team needs a culture change and that starts from the top. TD and Dan Quinn need to go and the Falcons need to hop on the wave and find someone who can reinvent this team because the talent is there.
The Falcons have some of the best collection of talent at the skill positions yet they have the same record as the Redskins and the worst record than the Cardinals not only a team that’s rebuilding with a rookie head coach and quarterback but a team that handled the Falcons one of their many losses.
dark. Next. Everyone for the Falcons is tradable
You can count this season as a loss but that doesn’t mean they have to tank. If they have any type of heart, they would still show up to work and put some effort. A lot of fans have readily given up so this Falcons team doesn’t need to a reason for the very few that are sticking around to do that same.
