The Falcons’ season is a few months away, but that doesn’t mean it’s too early to look at the schedule and try to figure out how this year is going to go. To that end, we’re taking a game-by-game trip through the 2022 slate and trying to figure out whether the Falcons win or lose each week.
We began with the season opener, naturally. The Falcons will host the hated New Orleans Saints in Week 1, pitting a work-in-progress Atlanta roster against a Saints team with a new head coach and plenty of new faces. Will the Falcons be improved enough to start the season off right at home by humiliating the most annoying football team in the world, or will they get the sadness started early?
