An international game update from the @Disney upfront: the Cincinnati Bengals and Atlanta Falcons will play week 9, Sunday, Nov. 8, in Madrid, Spain on NFL Network.
@steakshapiro What an insane thing for anyone in the state of GA to root for New England. Because Payton is an asshat we should root for the Patriots? In the state of Georgia? For an owner that is a total POS scumbag & the team that crushed our hopes of a Lombardi in ATL? Yeah, no thanks.
From Matt Ryan: "Arthur gave me the chance of a lifetime almost twenty years ago, and he's done it again today. While I appreciate the time I had with the Colts and with CBS, I've always been a Falcon. It feels great to be home. I could not be more excited, grateful, or humbled by this new opportunity. I began my career with a singular goal: to do right by the Blank family, the Falcons organization, the City of Atlanta, and especially our fans. My commitment to the success of this franchise has not changed. I'm beyond ready to help write a new chapter of excellence."
Per @JayGlazer: The Falcons have had conversations with Matt Ryan about potentially returning in a significant front office role.
Talks are ongoing and Ryan is said to be seriously considering it. Could Matty Ice save the Falcons?
@chrisdimino@AtlantaFalcons They need to lose every game. I have been a loyal fan, even when others have said what a waste it is & how they've quit over the years. It is so bad & needs to be blown up. Total reconstruction, no sign of resemblance from the original setup. No Blank, McKay, Fontenot, Morris
I hope Falcons fans use the only power you have this Sunday.
Don’t show up…stay home. Let Arthur Blank see an almost empty stadium and maybe he will realize he has to make massive changes and make them now.
