Falcons' elite pass-rush sent Packers scrambling for answers in the trenches (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I'm not sure if you had this one on your NFL bingo card, but the Atlanta Falcons' defensive line has been one of the best units in football this year. Without Jalon Walker and James Pearce Jr., they've turned a pass-rush riddled with red flags into a group that currently leads the league in pressure rate. The moment we really got to see this Falcons' defensive line shine was in the Week 3 victory over the Green Bay Packers. The 35-14 blowout win only saw them sack Jordan Love once, but they pres
Falcons' Week 4 matchup with Saints will be the ultimate test for C.J. Henderson (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the Atlanta Falcons' Week 3 win over the Green Bay Packers, it's fairly easy to highlight who the biggest surprise was: C.J. Henderson. With A.J. Terrell on IR, the Falcons had no choice but to roll with Henderson as a starting cornerback opposite Mike Hughes--and it's clear who the weak link was. While Hughes spent all night getting torched, Henderson looked like the best cornerback on the field in the 34-15 win. The veteran corner logged a team-high eight tackles, but also was making plays
Falcons' Gervon Dexter extension complicated the Brandon Dorlus discussion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Despite acquiring him just a month ago and only playing three games with with the Atlanta Falcons, general manager Ian Cunningham saw enough out of Gervon Dexter.

That ensures one pi
Kevin Stefanski's main coaching philosophy with Falcons is already paying off (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Outside of just returning for the playoffs for the first time in almost a decade, the Atlanta Falcons had clear intent when they hired Kevin Stefanski. The intention was to play more physical, smash-mouth football in order to improve on both sides of the trenches and control the line of scrimmage more. Dating back to their opening pressers, this new regime has made it clear the vision between Stefanski, Ian Cunningham, and Matt Ryan is a shared one, and that level of toughness up front (on both
Falcons addressed Gervon Dexter's contract situation before it became an issue (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Through three weeks of the 2026 season, Gervon Dexter has been one of the best defensive tackles in football. He's been living in the backfield and is the main reason why the Atlanta Falcons are currently leading the NFL in pressure rate and are third in pass-rush win rate. So of course, this is someone the Falcons want to ensure sticks around long-term. When Atlanta acquired him from Chicago a couple of weeks ago, they knew this could happen. He was entering a contract year, so the idea of havi
