  1. I mean, cool? We barely beat the third worst team in the league, playing a journeyman QB, with a decimated defense [due to injuries] including their star DE getting knocked out in the first half.

    I say we won this game **despite** the bad coaching from Zac and Morris. Those fourth down play calls were horrendous.

  2. Blank to Raheem after the falcons win yet another meaningless game against a bad team

  3. Whoopee a win? Always glad they won and the pick we gave the Rams is worse but I really hope this doesn’t factor into Blank keeping Raheem

  4. Nice win I guess, but please don’t use this as an excuse to keep this shit coaching staff (besides Ulbrich he can stay).

  5. Super…just another lame meaningless win to ensure another year of that clown Heem🤢🤮

  6. Such a sloppy win, im tired of this team. Just knowing im gonna be here next season and the seasons after makes me depressed and stressed.

  7. There’s no debate at all, Kirk is still much better than Penix which sucks given his extensive injury history, age, and already he’s pretty bad

    Waste of a pick

  8. the worst part about this is the Kirk lovers who will say bring him back to game manage. I love when they ask “who else can you get” — like game managers should cost $50Ms. The only way he should sniff being brought back is if his contract is restructured to where it makes sense.

    A smart staff can compete with a Malik Willis type next year.

  9. Glad to see us win. But winning by 7 points over team that’s basically on their second string along their whole roster is just unacceptable. Too bad all Blank sees is a number in the win column meaning we are going to have to endure another full season of our clown head coach 😒🫩

  10. I like seeing my team win football games. We probably keep Raheem regardless because we won’t have a QB. But at least we aren’t helping the Rams draft position.

  11. Only way Kirk stays is a contract restructure/pay cut. But I think he wants to go somewhere else, so he won’t help the falcons out at all, just gonna wait to get released. No way he’s staying on the roster at his cap number.

  12. Falcons have a chance to pass the Chiefs and Cowboys in draft position if we can put together a couple more wins, which would put us around 14th pick. The one season that I am absolutely dying to win meaningless games late in the year.

  13. Off topic, but I’m watching The Simpsons for the first time in years since it came on after the game…who is this show even for anymore?! I remember the Simpsons being somewhat edgy, this is godawful ‘safe’ comedy…

  14. Bro if Raheem is our coach again next season I don’t care what sort of rebrand and new uniform shit we’re supposed to do, I’m not buying anything. Glad to see us win tho either way haha

  15. The falcons special! Win once your seasons over. At least we dont have a draft pick that we’re ruining this time

  16. Unbelievable that we still can’t figure out 4th down and my dick size to go… Bijan and TA avaiable, the Franck tank and hell even Kirko doing sneaks. Yet we still fail at it over and over again.

  17. For all of yall saying “winning is better so the Rams pick won’t be top 10”. Yall do realize the rest of our picks are falling down as well when we sorely need more talent throughout the rest of our roster??? Winning for pride is one thing and being happy about a win is cool. But being happy about winning so another team doesn’t have a better pick is asinine and shows where we’re at as a franchise.

  18. I will never complain about a win, but this is such a Falcons thing to do, wait til the playoffs are out of reach then get some stuff figured out, and win enough games for the HC to keep his job. It happened with Arthur Smith, with Dan Quinn the year before he got fired, and on and on. If they could just win the games that they should win, Dolphins and Jets, earlier in the season we wouldn’t be in the situation year after year.

  19. I was listening on the radio… was Bijan even on the field for the 4th and one where Algier got stuffed?

  20. It feels bad to realize that we would have been playoff conversations had we not botched two game winning FGs (Koo, Romo).

    Silver lining is that Gonzalez looks like a sure thing

  21. Don’t apologize for wins, but that game was a LOT closer than it should have been considering the team the Cards were trotting out there.

    Wins are wins but damn was that ugly. 

  22. Kinda wish they lose to solidify Raheem’s future, so we have something to look forward to next year. Winning now wont change a damn thing.

  23. Living in Phoenix for 13 years and been to 3 games prior to this, Falcon losses everytime. 4th times a charm!🥹❤️🖤

    Falcons once no longer a threat to the Lombardi
