Team Overview

The Atlanta Falcons enter the 2025 NFL season under head coach Raheem Morris and GM Terry Fontenot, aiming to break a seven-year playoff drought. After finishing 8-9 in 2024, Atlanta added offensive depth through the draft and reinforced its defense in free agency. The big storyline this year is whether the Falcons can finally turn potential into results in a wide-open NFC South.

Offensive Line Analysis

The Falcons invested heavily in protection for their quarterback. The offensive line remains anchored by Chris Lindstrom, but depth behind the starters is still a question. Rookie additions are expected to compete for starting snaps, especially at tackle.

Defensive Line Analysis

Atlanta’s defensive front showed flashes in 2024 but lacked consistency. New acquisitions at defensive end should boost their pass rush. The key will be Grady Jarrett’s health and leadership in the trenches.

Week 1 – vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Result & Key Stats
The Atlanta Falcons fell 20–23. Rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. threw for 298 yards with one TD and a rushing score. The offensive line allowed just one sack, but special teams struggles proved costly.

Key Moments & Injuries
Penix capped a 91-yard drive with a goal-line dive to briefly give Atlanta the lead. However, K Younghoe Koo missed a potential game-tying FG. WRs Darnell Mooney and Drake London both exited with injuries.

Looking Ahead
The Atlanta Falcons visit the Minnesota Vikings. With WR depth uncertain, expect more reliance on the run and quick passes.

Week 2 – vs. Minnesota Vikings

Result & Key Stats
The Atlanta Falcons beat Minnesota 22–6 on the road, leaning on the ground game and five field goals from K Parker Romo, including a 54-yarder. Atlanta piled up over 200 rushing yards behind RB Bijan Robinson, while the defense smothered the Vikings.

Key Moments & Injuries
Romo went 5-for-5 to keep the scoreboard moving, and Atlanta capitalized on four Vikings turnovers to pull away late. CB A.J. Terrell exited with a hamstring issue; his status is one to monitor. QB Michael Penix Jr. managed the game as the defense and special teams controlled field position.

Looking Ahead
The Atlanta Falcons visit the Chiefs in Week 3, with red-zone efficiency and Terrell’s hamstring as key storylines.

Week 3 – vs. Carolina Panthers

Result & Key Stats
The Atlanta Falcons were shut out 30–0 in Charlotte. Rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. struggled under pressure, finishing with 138 passing yards and 2 INTs. The Falcons’ run game never found rhythm, totaling just 56 yards.

Key Moments & Injuries
Carolina’s defense dominated from the opening drive, forcing turnovers and limiting Atlanta to 9 first downs. WR Drake London was held to 3 catches. No major injuries reported, though frustration was evident on the sideline.

Looking Ahead
The Atlanta Falcons return home to host the Washington Commanders in Week 4.

Week 4 – vs. Washington Commanders

Result & Key Stats
The Atlanta Falcons outlasted Washington 34–27 at home, evening their record at 2–2. Rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. rebounded with 3 passing touchdowns and over 250 yards.

Key Moments & Injuries
A late interception by CB A.J. Terrell sealed the win after Washington threatened to tie. WR Drake London added 85 yards and a score.

Looking Ahead
The Falcons have bye week on Week 5.

Week 5 – BYE WEEK

Looking Ahead
The Falcons return to action in Week 6 with a primetime clash against the Buffalo Bills. The focus will be protecting Penix against one of the league’s most aggressive pass rushes.

Week 6 – vs. Buffalo Bills

Result & Key Stats
The Atlanta Falcons earned an impressive 24–14 home win over the Buffalo Bills at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. showed great command, completing 20 of 32 passes for 250 yards and a touchdown. RB Bijan Robinson was unstoppable on the ground, posting 170 rushing yards and a long 81-yard touchdown that set the tone early.

Key Moments & Injuries
WR Drake London had a breakout performance with 158 yards and a touchdown on 10 catches, while Tyler Allgeier added a short rushing score in the second quarter. Defensively, CBs Dee Alford and DeAngelo Malone each grabbed an interception as the Falcons’ front line, led by David Onyemata, produced four sacks. The team was without several starters, including Ta’Quon Graham, LaCale London, and Darnell Mooney, but depth players stepped up effectively.

Looking Ahead
Now 3–2, Atlanta travels west to face the San Francisco 49ers (4–2) in Week 7. If Bijan Robinson maintains his explosive form and the defense continues to create turnovers, the Falcons could solidify themselves as real contenders in the NFC South.

Week 7 – vs. San Francisco 49ers

The Atlanta Falcons fell 20–10 at home to the San Francisco 49ers in a physical matchup dominated by the trenches. Rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. showed flashes of promise, completing 21 of 38 passes for 241 yards and one touchdown, maintaining poise under pressure despite being sacked twice and hurried throughout the game. Bijan Robinson continued to be a dual-threat weapon, totaling 92 yards from scrimmage (40 rushing, 52 receiving) and scoring Atlanta’s lone touchdown.

Defensively, the Falcons held strong for much of the first half before Christian McCaffrey took over on the ground. Kaden Elliss intercepted a key pass and added four solo tackles, while Zach Harrison and Ta’Quon Graham combined for several quarterback pressures. However, the defense struggled to contain the 49ers’ rushing efficiency, allowing 174 yards on the ground.

Looking Ahead: Now 3–4, Atlanta enters a crucial stretch that will test its ability to finish drives and protect its young quarterback. With Darnell Mooney questionable and the offensive line still dealing with injuries, the Falcons will need a sharper offensive rhythm and improved red-zone execution to bounce back next week.

Week 8 – vs. Miami Dolphins

Result & Key Stats
The Atlanta Falcons were outmatched at home, falling 34–10 to the high-powered Miami Dolphins. With Kirk Cousins stepping in at quarterback, Atlanta’s offense struggled to generate rhythm, as he completed 21 of 31 passes for 173 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. Running back Bijan Robinson faced one of his toughest outings of the season, limited to just 25 rushing yards on nine carries while losing a costly fumble early in the game. Tight end Kyle Pitts was the lone bright spot on offense, leading all receivers with nine receptions for 59 yards, showing consistency despite limited opportunities.

Key Moments & Injuries
Atlanta’s only touchdown came in the second quarter on a Tyler Allgeier 4-yard run, capping a rare sustained drive. However, turnovers and poor field position crippled any comeback hopes as Miami’s offense built a 24–3 lead by halftime. The Falcons’ defense, led by Kaden Elliss and Mike Hughes, combined for 13 tackles and a sack, but the unit couldn’t contain the Dolphins’ explosive passing attack. David Onyemata added five tackles, while Dee Alford recorded the team’s lone sack. Injuries continued to pile up for Atlanta, with Billy Bowman Jr., Divine Deablo, and Jalon Walker all sidelined, while several key starters such as Michael Penix Jr. and Drake London were limited in practice during the week.

Looking Ahead
Now sitting at 3–4, the Falcons will look to regroup as they prepare to face the Patriots in Week 9. To get back on track, Atlanta must reestablish the run game with Robinson and tighten pass protection for Cousins. Defensively, improving on third-down stops and generating takeaways will be essential to avoid slipping further in the NFC South race.
