The Falcons are one of the dominant teams in the NFL, they’re just waiting for someone to notice. ESPN certainly didn’t notice when it ranked the Falcons #4 in their weekly Power Rankings, behind the Colts, Giants, and Ravens. Perhaps they didn’t notice how lucky the Giants and Colts were to pull off wins in the final minutes in their respective week 2 games. I know I shouldn’t care, because power rankings mean nothing and divisional standing means everything, I’d just like the media to show us a little respect once in a while. We’re more than just Matt Ryan and Michael Turner highlights. We’ve got a whole team here, and they’re actually quite good.

Falcons v. Bears tickets on October 18


After spending nearly a month away from the Georgia Dome, the Falcons return home to face Daaaa Bearsss on October 18. This is a Sunday night game with a 8:20 start time, so tickets are selling at a premium over normal daytime game prices. You can still find some decent seats on the resale market for under $50, while the luxury seats and the 50-yard line tickets are selling for $200 and up.
