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.
