Why Your Team Sucks 2026: Atlanta Falcons

Some people are fans of the Atlanta Falcons. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Atlanta Falcons. This 2026 Defector NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Read all the previews so far here.
Your team: Atlanta Falcons
Your 2025 record: 8-9, which is less of a win-loss record than it is a manifestation of the spirit of mediocrity that inhabits this franchise. It’s been almost 10 years since 28-3 happened, and the Falcons have gone a combined 65-84 with zero playoff appearances since. This team’s never good enough to care about or bad enough to pity, and therefore it is something much worse: a team that might as well not even exist.
