The Falcons are set to take on the Colts in Germany, for what will be the first NFL game played in the Olympiastadion. This game will feature two young quarterbacks going head-to-head in Berlin.
Both Michael Penix Jr. and Anthony Richardson are raw talents who have not proven themselves just yet, and this game will be an entertaining one for fans. Both teams are also coming off mediocre seasons and both selected a top 10 player in the middle of round 1.

The Falcons signed Kicker Lenny Krieg who is a Berlin Native recently and that could have fans rooting for the Falcons in this game. The fans will have a lot to root for as both teams are young and exciting.

Falcons President Greg Beadles is grateful for the opportunity of the team playing in Germany. He mentioned how important this is for expansion of the NFL globally.
This is only one of the few games already out there as the schedule is fully released on May 14. This will be one of the Falcons most entertaining games going against Richardson and the offense that has Jonathan Taylor.
As the schedule launch prepares for the 14th, the Falcons already know their opponents but will soon find out when they play who. They will look to improve this season with their new key additions from the draft and their young stars gaining more experience.
The Falcons and Colts will be a game to look out for as both teams look to jump into the playoffs this season.
