The Atlanta Falcons have cut Ray-Ray McCloud, per the team. This concludes a brief and deeply confusing saga that saw McCloud go from a 2024 career year to light involvement in the offense early in 2025 to not suiting up for the team the past two weeks. Now he’ll be looking for a new home. […]
Sunday night’s 20-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons for the San Francisco 49ers was a masterclass performance from both Kyle Shanahan and Robert Saleh.

So, apparently, you can push the ball carrier forward, but you cannot pull them. In my decade of doing this, I was unaware this was even a rule until Sunday night when the 49ers solidified their 20-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons. If you push (READ: The Tush-Push), it’s fine—at least through 2025. If you […]
Well, the 49ers beat the Atlanta Falcons. This was a not just a pallet cleanser for that ho-hum showing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but it also gave some legitimacy to the 2025 49ers. They were able to hold one of the better offenses in the NFL (well, at this point, anyways) to 10 points, […]

The San Francisco 49ers beating the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday Night Football has given the Seattle Seahawks some extra pressure on Monday Night Football against the Houston Texans.

The San Francisco 49ers pulled off a big 20-10 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday Night Football, improving to 5-2 as they got tight end George Kittle back for the first time since Week 1.

Here are some numbers that will be important shortly. These concern a few players on the Atlanta Falcons after their two-game win streak over the Washington Commanders and Buffalo Bills, respectively.

Week 7 in Atlanta, consecutive game number 88 for me, was everything the personal side of me wanted but everything the fan side of me did not. I flew in Sunday morning, where my friend LeShawn graciously picked me up from the airport and dropped me at my hotel so I didn’t have to deal with […]

Jones made $400,000 since that was his fourth win of the season. Jones can continue to earn more incentives, so long as he remains on the field. Of course, […]
The San Francisco 49ers beat the Atlanta Falcons 20-10 at home on Sunday Night Football, improving to 5-2 on the season and 4-1 with backup quarterback Mac Jones at the helm. It was expected to be a tough game for the 49ers, as the Falcons had just beaten the Buffalo Bills 24-14 and seemed to […]
The Buffalo Bills entered their bye week on a two-game losing streak that included disappointing losses to the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons. Quarterback Josh Allen and company now have to try and get back on track in Week 8, but their opponent has been on a bit of an unexpected win streak. The […]
The pervading narrative about the Buffalo Bills is that recent stumbles have thrown up some red flags about this year’s team. The 4-0 start against losing teams wasn’t very impressive, and the back-to-back losses against the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons exposed vulnerabilities in a defense that’s regressed and an offense that’s lost its […]
The Atlanta Falcons like things to go smoothly, but when they don’t, they often struggle to look like a competent NFL team.
