- You can’t win games when you continually lose possession of the ball, which is what the Falcons did today against the Seahawks. THREE TIMES!
- The Seahawks went 2 of 4 in the Red Zone. The Falcons went to the Red Zone four times and got…nothing!
- The Falcons have lost more games in their own Mercedes-Benz Stadium (39), then won (33).
- The CFB Playoff-bound Georgia Bulldogs won two games in the last two weeks at MBS. The Falcons only won 2 at their home stadium this season.
- Today’s loss was the widest margin of defeat at said stadium in history. It was their worst home loss period since their 34-3 faceplant to the Panthers. (info via Mike Conti, 929 The Game)
- Conti also adds that season eight of sub .500 seasons is the longest such stretch in franchise history since the 1983-90 Henning/Campbell/Hanifan era.
- When Falcons owner Arthur Blank assesses keeping coach Raheem Morris in place after this season, he will have Morris’ 16-25, 3-season record staring back at him. What will he decide?
- This is the sixth game this season that the Falcons have lost by a deficit of 10 points or more.
- Converting on third down continues to be a hardship for the Dirty Birds. They are 1 of 13(.077) today on 3rd down, their worst performance in a 10-plus attempt game since 1991, playing the Saints. (stat via Tori McElhaney, Falcons Senior Reporter)
