Crumpler, Dunn ready to visit Vick
ATLANTA - Atlanta Falcons tight end Alge Crumpler wants to visit imprisoned quarterback Michael Vick soon.
Seahawks hope to stay sharp against woeful Falcons
ATLANTA - The Seattle Seahawks are expected to be watching the scoreboard as they wait to see if they'll host Washington, Minnesota or New Orleans in the playoffs. The Atlanta Falcons may be more interested in paying attention to the traffic reports, eager to leave town quickly following the end of a disastrous season packed with equal doses of losses and controversy. But what's the motivation for ...
Happy ending: Falcons end season with win
ATLANTA - The Atlanta Falcons proved that a season of hard knocks didn't break their will, while the Seattle Seahawks say a meaningless loss won't dim their hopes for a successful postseason. Chris Redman threw four touchdown passes, including two to Alge Crumpler, and the Falcons rode three fourth-quarter touchdowns to a 44-41 victory over the playoff-bound Seahawks on Sunday. Seattle coach Mike Holmgren rested quarterback Matt ...
Leftwich, Harrington want to stay in Atlanta
FLOWERY BRANCH - Joey Harrington and Byron Leftwich both think they have a bright future in Atlanta.
Singletary interested in Atlanta job
ATLANTA - Mike Singletary would not elaborate Friday on his interest in pursuing the Atlanta Falcons head coach position for a second straight year. One year ago, Singletary - the San Francisco 49ers' assistant head coach - was a finalist in the Falcons' coach search. The Falcons instead hired Louisville coach Bobby Petrino, who this year quit after only 13 games to take the job at ...
Falcons itching to end the season
FLOWERY BRANCH- Todd McClure spent the last three years feeling good about his job. The Atlanta Falcons' ninth-year center was the leader of an offensive line that blocked for the NFL's No. 1 rushing attack.
Loss in finale could improve draft pick
ATLANTA - A loss is surely not the way the Atlanta Falcons want to end their disappointing season. But if Seattle beats them at the Georgia Dome on Sunday, the Falcons could get a consolation prize: a higher position in the next NFL draft.
Dismal year one game away from end
ATLANTA - Whether it's a close game or blowout, the Atlanta Falcons can't find a way to win. The latest setback, losing in overtime at Arizona, was the Falcons' sixth straight defeat. Players are so beaten down emotionally and physically that interim coach Emmitt Thomas gave them Monday off. Promoted to replace Bobby Petrino two weeks ago, Thomas told the team to focus on what went right ...
Falcons lose in overtime
GLENDALE, Ariz. - The Arizona Cardinals blew a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter. Boos echoed through the stadium.
Dismal season nearing an end
GLENDALE, Ariz. - This disjointed, dysfunctional season can't end fast enough for the Atlanta Falcons. The Arizona Cardinals at least have a goal of finishing .500 if they beat the Falcons on Sunday and follow that up with a season-ending win at home over St. Louis. Atlanta, on the other hand, is like some battered prize fighter going down for the count. No wonder. The ...
Hall: 'I will not be a part of a losing team another year'
FLOWERY BRANCH - If owner Arthur Blank hires a coach whose personality is directly opposite from Bobby Petrino's, DeAngelo Hall wants to return to the Atlanta Falcons next year.
Parcells won't be joining Falcons
FLOWERY BRANCH - Bill Parcells will not be joining the Atlanta Falcons as head of football operations. Parcells turned down the position, Falcons owner Arthur Blank said Wednesday in a statement. Blank said the team had an agreement in principle with Parcells, but after he told the Falcons he was considering an offer from the Miami Dolphins, negotiations fell through. "We gave it our best shot, and ...
Falcons' VanGorder headed to SEC
COLUMBIA, S.C. - Steve Spurrier brought in new leaders to fire up South Carolina's defense and special teams. And the Gamecocks' head ball coach put himself on notice to improve, too.
Blank seeks to hire new coach and GM
FLOWERY BRANCH - Owner Arthur Blank has to wonder if the Atlanta Falcons' run of bad news will ever end. Bill Parcells' rejection Wednesday of Blank's offer to oversee football operations capped an embarrassing 10-day stretch for Atlanta.
Not Dunn yet: Falcons' veteran running back has no intentions of retiring at season's end
FLOWERY BRANCH - Warrick Dunn doesn't want his career to end with a whimper. The three-time Pro Bowl running back, who last month became just the 22nd NFL player to rush for 10,000 career yards, has too much pride to leave the Atlanta Falcons in such disrepair.
