• Falcons coach Dan Quinn get fired?

    Atlanta Falcons Fire Dan Quinn, Thomas Dimitroff

    2 Min Read

    The Atlanta Falcons have fired head coach Dan Quinn and General Manager Thomas Dimitroff hours after their loss to the Carolina Panthers, the team confirmed late Sunday.

    Falcons President and CEO Rich McKay will assume day-to-day operations for the ball club, which had high hopes for this season.

    “Decisions like these are very difficult,” owner Authur Blank said in a written statement. “But the previous two seasons and start to this one have been especially hard for me because of the deep love, respect and admiration I and my family have for Dan, Thomas and their families.”

    If you would have told Atlanta Falcons and Quinn that his team would begin the 2020 season 0-5, no doubt he would not believe it. But that’s hole the Falcons have dug for themselves.

    As the season progresses, here are their remaining opponents, which will do all they can to continue the Falcons’ losing ways. Can Atlanta rebound? They have to. Let’s look at the schedule to see their chances.

    Who Do The Falcons Play This Week?

    The Falcons entered the season with big hopes, but coaching issues and a penchant for folding in the second half have haunted them.

    Why The Falcons Fired Dan Quinn

    Falcons Head Coach Dan Quinn started the season on the hot seat after failing to avenge his team’s Super Bowl loss to the New England Patriots two years ago.

    Criticism reached a fever pitch when the Falcons lost at the last second in Week 2 to the Dallas Cowboys. The noise got deafening after a similarly brutal collapse against the Chicago Bears. 

    In both games, the Falcons lead by double figures in the fourth quarter and nearly three scores at halftime. But Quinn managed to find a way to lose both games.

    The Georgia Bulldogs begin the 2020 season with some major questions on an uneven playing field in more ways than one. Not only has COVID-19 severely limited the number of games, fans and everything else, but the Dawgs have some holes to fill.

    If you’re looking for a place to watch UGA games, these bars have the big screen TVs and great food you need.

  • Atlanta Falcons new uniforms

    Here Is The Atlanta Falcons’ New Uniform Design

    2 Min Read

    The Atlanta Falcons debuted new team uniforms on Wednesday with updated designs that build on the team’s main red and black colors.

    One departure from past jerseys is that the uniforms have the word “ATL” printed on the front. Typically that’s where the actual name of the team would go, but this is groundbreaking.

    Atlanta Falcons Debut New Uniforms

    The Atlanta Falcons Twitter account shared the new fits with the caption: “New day, new drip.”

    The jerseys add some spice to the squad’s 2020 season, which will be like no other, given the global health crisis going on. 

    The Falcons likely aren’t the only team with new outfits this year. It remains to be seen if any other franchises will follow suit.

    Falcons Coach Dan Quinn says the team has had to adjust to the new normal by learning how to teach online. He says with the technology they have and the planning they’re putting into place, they’re learning “how to throw a hell of a virtual offseason.”

    Inside Atlanta Hawks Star Trae Young’s Very Good All Star Day

    2 Min Read

    And there were some who didn’t even want Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young to even be in the NBA All Star Game. But of course, they were wrong.

    Young proved them wrong not only at the game but long before it. Here’s how his All Star day went:

    The 22-year-old rookie was perhaps the most busiest player in the history of All Star Weekend.

    Young is the only player to play in three events on separate nights. Here’s what he accomplished:

    • Friday night: NBA Rising Stars Game
    • Saturday night: Three Point Contest
    • Sunday night: All Start Game debut

    Before The Game, Young Admired His All Star Threads

    After he tried on his new jersey, he got a biiiig All Star introduction.

    MR. BIG SHOT!

    Young had his highlight moment when he jacked it up from the logo to end the half. Of course, it was nothing but net!

    Here’s a crazy Twitter stat from Kevin Keneely: “85 players have attempted buzzer beaters from 40+ feet away to end the first half this season, totaling 110 attempts. Of those 110 attempts, only four have gone in… Trae Young has made half of them. Young is now 2-for-2 (100%) on such buzzer-beater attempts this season.”

    Total Stat Line: 10 Points, !0 Assists

    I’d say Young had himself a very good All Star day.

  • What Anton Walkes Can Bring to Atlanta Utd in the MLS in 2020?

    What Can Anton Walkes Bring to Atlanta Utd In The MLS In 2020?

    3 Min Read

    (Editor’s note: This is a sponsored post. Read more about our sponsored content.)

    Atlanta United have prepared for the upcoming MLS season by reacquiring a familiar face recently: English right back Anton Walkes.

    MLS Soccer explains how the 22-year-old defender has signed back on at the Mercedes Benz park, having been on the books of English League One side Portsmouth.

    He previously played for the Five Stripes on loan back in 2017, but returned to his parent club Tottenham Hotspur, who loaned him to Portsmouth before selling him.

    Anton Walkes Joins Atlanta United For 2020 Season

    Portsmouth couldn’t make use of the defender as they hunted promotion from their division. His transfer has divided fans at Fratton Park.

    Throughout this season, bwin states that Portsmouth have had problems at the back making Walkes’ transfer all the more baffling for some. However, journalist Mark Catlin explained how letting him leave made sense as he wanted to play regular soccer.

    Portsmouth’s loss is Atlanta’s gain ahead of the new season in which they’re hoping to push on in the Eastern Conference.

    Capturing Walkes represents something of a coup for Atlanta. His brief stay back in 2017 was a success and he slotted in comfortably at right back during that time. Having finished second in the Eastern Conference they lost in the semi-final of the MLS Cup, but as they’re boasting crowds in excess of their rivals, there is a feeling they could be on the cusp of further success. So, what will Walkes bring to add to that hope?

    Manager Frank de Boer is an experienced European soccer player and coach who played in defense himself so he knows the modern game, and how players at the back also need to be able to attack. On the right side of Atlanta’s defense last year was Franco Escobar and whilst he was solid enough at times, he doesn’t have the same attacking attributes as Walkes.

    The Englishman is more of a wing back, able to break down the flank at great speed and help the attack.

    The Five Stripes played a variation of three at the back last season which is only effective if the full backs overlap and add value to the attack. Julian Gressel can operate as a winger, but with Walkes being added to the roster it gives De Boer far more flexibility in his approach.

    Signing a young and exciting player from a major European country is also a big bonus for Atlanta in terms of further recruitment.

    The fact Walkes, a player likely coveted by several clubs in his own domestic league, chose to join is a real boost.

    That’s been further developed by Manchester United taking Efrain Morales on trial recently. If Atlanta is seen as a club fit for developing talent that can excel on the world stage, they’re more likely to be trusted with loan players from big European clubs.

    De Boer’s side finished third overall in the MLS last year and if they’re to catch up with New York City and Los Angeles FC, they’ll need to be able to tap into whatever vein of talent they can. Luring Walkes Stateside is a huge step towards asserting themselves as one of the top MLS sides in the eyes of the soccer world.

  • Peach Bowl 2019 Results In Atlanta: LSU 63-Oklahoma 28

    Peach Bowl 2019 Results In Atlanta: LSU 63-Oklahoma 28

    3 Min Read

    LSU whipped the Oklahoma Sooners 63-28 in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl on Saturday evening. The game was played at the enormous Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

    Here are five things to know about the game, which sets up an LSU-Clemson national championship game.

    1. Peach Bowl Attendance Sets Record

    The 2019 Peach Bowl broke an attendance record, with 78,347 counted in the stadium.

    2. Peach Bowl Win Puts LSU In Record Books

    With the win, LSU improved to 14-0, a win total they have never reached before. But the Tigers broke several records behind the Heisman-winning quarterback Joe Burrow.

    3. Tale Of Two Quarterbacks

    On paper, LSU and Oklahoma were statistically identical, but the game really came down to the two quarterbacks.

    “What a tremendous job by everybody,” Orgeron said. “One team, one heartbeat. Everybody in our organization. We got tremendous play by Joe Burrow and have a great coaching staff.”

    4. ESPN Reporter Among 5 Dead In Plane Crash

    Carley McCord, a Louisiana sports reporter and the daughter-in-law of LSU OC Steve Ensminger, was among those who died in a plane crash while en route to the Tigers game in Atlanta.

     

    Atlanta has been a college football oasis for the LSU Tigers. Burrow has thrown 11 touchdowns there just in the month of December alone. But will he win the ‘chip?
