Falcons Lose To Bengals, Fall To 3-6
November 8th, 2026
“Thanks for losing, Kev.”
Unlike last week in Tampa, the Falcons looked like a real professional football team this morning in Spain.
Atlanta, however, was no match for the Bengals’ defense, which had no visible flaws as Joe enjoyed the game with a bowl of Fruit Loops and a few perfectly ripened pears.
The Bengals won 34-17 and jumped their record to 6-2 as the Falcons fell to 3-6.
That means the Bucs (3-5) are alone in second place in the NFC South, a half-game behind the Panthers (3-4), which host the Broncos at 1 p.m. The Saints (2-5) are a half game behind the Bucs. They’re coming off a bye week and will host the Browns at 1 o’clock, with quarterback Shedeur Sanders making his first start for Cleveland.
Could the entire NFC South landfill lose today? That would be so on brand.

Good chance panthers and saints don’t win also

Saints are the only team favored so we could end :
CAR 3-5
NO 3-5
TB 3-6
ATL 3-6

Good start to the day. Penix looks average at best. Saints may be able to handle the Deshawnless Browns but doubt the Panthers stay with the Broncos (although their offense has been offensive lately).
Can our Bucs hang with the Bears. I think so and we’ll see a good game. Might not win but we’ll fight. That would be a big change from the second half of last year.

Nice!!

let’s hope that Jacoby Brissett and Matthew Stafford don’t figure things out by the time we play them – CHI DET BAL LAR losses would give the Bucs nine losses and as Ira has stated the Bucs have never swept the division so add one more loss –
but 7-10 in the NFC (Stagg Bowl) South could result in a home playoff game – wow

Enough of BACKING in the Playoffs
And…. WILDCARD is not the Playoffs in my book
Folks!

Get a grip on reality!

Pennix was awful , people like to ride baker but give him london, pitts. , and bijan(no disrespect to Bucky)
November 8th, 2026 at 12:55 pm
Playoffs…. weather you have 12 wins or 8 doesnt matter youve made the tournament!! Ask the bills 35 plus wins the past few seasons
Then getting bounced!
November 8th, 2026 at 12:55 pm
What’s funny is how the Bucs can be in first place when they kick off tonight.

You are part of that fanbase that can go

Watching the Falcons Bengals and you have to appreciate the way we shut down Chase and Higgins. Burrow is the early MVP. And I hope Stefanski has a great flight back to Atlanta.
November 8th, 2026 at 1:05 pm
I was impressed with secondary vs bengals. Even the pass to higgins that sealed the game was well covered by mcollum. it was just a great pass and catch
November 8th, 2026 at 1:09 pm
Food for thought!
Williams 6’1
Mayfield 6’1
The only thing short are brain cells
In most fans…

baker isnt caleb but hes just as good if not better than darnold
November 8th, 2026 at 1:36 pm
Even IF big If we beat the Bears some how we will loose one to saints ,Falcons and Panthers…
November 8th, 2026 at 1:53 pm
Man falcon CBs got it handed to them today. Double teaming Chase, and still can’t stop it. Terrell not looking 100
November 8th, 2026 at 2:13 pm
This division is a joke, it’s why the season can still be a failure even if we make the playoffs. If we get bounced in the first round in a home game full of away fans again I want Bowles fired!!!

It is no longer the landfill division. It is the sewer division. NFC South Sewer.
November 8th, 2026 at 2:16 pm
Caught the end of it, love seeing the Falcons lose.
Watching the Redskins game rn… Rachaad White is such a unique weapon.
November 8th, 2026 at 2:17 pm
And as bad as the NFC Soutg might be, the NFC East is even worse
November 8th, 2026 at 2:46 pm
Did Joe single-handedly cleanse this site of Rod Munch?
November 8th, 2026 at 3:02 pm
To all you folks for whom 9-8 or 8-9 ain’t good enough:
It can get worse. It can get a lot worse.
Have y’all forgotten?
Or would you rather see a lousy home team, so you can go, “look at the Yuks”?
November 8th, 2026 at 3:22 pm
stefansky is horren-dye…
he’s like the worse ever…
been sayin’ it forever…
#horrendye
and let’s not forget penix is a super-scrubb

Panthers still suffering after losing to us, because 1st & GL and you throw a pick? Did Canales not learn anything in Seattle?
November 8th, 2026 at 4:14 pm
We could end the day looking like this
Bucs 4-5
Panthers 3-5
Falcons 3-6
Saints 2-6
November 8th, 2026 at 4:46 pm
We are in first place in the NFC south. 👍👍👍Pun intended.

Sanders looked like an NFL QB today, almost pulled it out
