Atlanta Falcons
Georgia professional football
The Atlanta Falcons are a professional American football team based in Atlanta, Georgia, competing in the National Football League's NFC South division.
Founded in 1966, the franchise has reached two Super Bowls but never won a championship—most infamously squandering a 28-3 lead against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LI.
The Falcons blew another fourth-quarter lead.
