Curse of the Falcons

Send us Fan MailA new day dawns for Atlanta as we welcome Thomas Dimitrov, Coach Mike Smith, and Matty Ice, Matt Ryan.

Send us Fan MailIn addition to our discussion, Rest Easy Dolly Parton, who passed today at age 80.

Send us Fan MailWe’re not going to write his name, and we only say it once just to get it on record, so let’s put it like this —— An alleged offensive genius replaces Jim Mora as head coach and burns the place down, our star quarterback goes to prison, our new starting quarterback’s claim to fame is that he’s related to Padraig Harrington, and more! In short, we hit bottom.

Send us Fan MailJim Mora, Jr says some stupid things, as does his dad, and Mr. Blank puts a stop to it. Next?

Send us Fan MailAnother 6-2 start has us anticipating the first consecutive winning season. Then the bottom fell out. This is a long, agonizing trip through Dante’s Rings… and it begins here.

Send us Fan MailEarly training camp

Send us Fan MailA young, brash coach with a familiar name takes over as Head Football Coach and it’s honeymoon time!

Send us Fan MailVick breaks his leg, Coach gets canned, and all sorts of Falconing and so forth.

Send us Fan MailIn his first year as our starting QB, Mike Vick becomes Superman.

Send us Fan MailEnter Arthur Blank, Warrick Dunn, and new starting QB Michael Vick.

Send us Fan MailWe finagle a brilliant first rounder for the Smith family’s final season at the helm.

Send us Fan MailOur Super Bowl XXXIII heroes have gotten old very quickly. This was not our favorite year. 

Send us Fan MailWhere we’ve been, where we’re going, and a very sad goodbye.

Send us Fan MailHopes are sky high for the Dirty Birds following their first trip to the Super Bowl. But then…

Send us Fan MailChuck, Dan, & Sonny catch up a bit.

Send us Fan MailThe road to Miami was long and full of terrors. 

Send us Fan MailIS THIS REAL???

Send us Fan MailThe Falcons break through and earn their first-ever trip to the NFC Championship Game with a win over the 49ers.

Send us Fan MailNo words do it justice. 1998.

Send us Fan MailThe Falcons win. A lot.

Send us Fan MailStuff that happened this week. Discussing the combine, our draft pick, and what might happen to our team both good and cursed. 

Send us Fan MailAfter 31 seasons of utter futility, the Atlanta Falcons hire a football coach.

Send us Fan MailPitts gets franchised, Cousins gets cut, and the Combine starts in Indy

Send us Fan MailUnequivocally one of the Falconest seasons of all time.

Send us Fan MailJames Pearce unleashed the curse (along with his personal stupidity), plus potential free agent targets for the birds.

Send us Fan MailThat one time June Jones got us into the playoffs.

Send us Fan Mail1993- A year that was forgettable for those who remember.

Send us Fan MailA new coach is hired! Kevin Stefanski becomes the 20th head coach of the Atlanta Falcons. The fellas discuss this and several more organizational hires.Link to Falcons Today by Chat Sports YouTube channel.https://youtube.com/@falconstv?si=BlYzwUa6ed2ZL3u9

Send us Fan MailBig changes for  the Falcons. President Matt Ryan is in charge! The search is on for Head Coach and General Manager with quite a few promising young prospects being interviewed. Once again there is hope. 

Send us Fan MailWhen people talk about the great times with the Jerry Glanville Falcons, they’re talking about this right here.

Send us Fan MailThe end of the 2025 Season and the Coach/GM firings. Plus, we sweep the Saints for the first time since 2016 and eliminate Tampa in the process. All in all, a damn fine week. Damn fine.

Send us Fan MailThe 1991 season, when success started and stopped a couple of times, sees us finally winning more than losing — the whole season pivoting on one great key play (if you know, you know).

Send us Fan MailChuckie drops Hot Takes, Sonny has long-term concerns for Bijan, and Dan worries that we’re winning too much.

Send us Fan MailMerry Christmas and happy holidays from Chuck, Dan, & Sonny. Dan has a brief message for the forlorn Falcon faithful.

Send us Fan MailAnother coaching change & a uniform change results in what could be the most exciting 5-11 team in NFL history. Plus, Dan doesn’t abort an ill-fated Fredo Corleone imitation in time. Not good.

Send us Fan MailEliminated last week, win this week. Stop me if you’ve heard this one.

Send us Fan MailThe Seattle debacle.... 

Send us Fan MailAs our beleaguered and beloved Birds bottom out, we see a brief, bright flash of a legend being born.

Send us Fan MailJ! E! T! S! Boy! We! Suck!

Send us Fan MailDan Henning takes over a team that has won two division titles in three years and completely wrecks it.

Send us Fan MailOne Saints win down, one to go. Chuck, Dan, and Sonny dig into where the Falcons are and what they think should or might happen moving forward.

Send us Fan MailAfter the Falcons miss the playoffs for each of their first 12 seasons, Leeman Bennett leads them to their second division title in three years and their third playoff berth in the last five… and is summarily fired. Nice going, Rankin.

Send us Fan MailWe went to Germany... and then we left Germany... The only thing we won was frequent flyer miles :( 

Send us Fan MailComing off of the first playoff victory in 1978, the Falcons’ progress retreats in ‘79. But then, in 1980, what many believe to be our best team ever gets a first round bye in the playoffs and a home game against Dallas. What could possibly go wrong?
