As the NFL prepares for the start of training camp, very few analysts are buying into this year’s Falcons team. In fact, most have a hard time envisioning Atlanta winning five or more games this season.
Despite posting a 7-10 record in 2021, the Falcons traded away 14-year veteran QB Matt Ryan, while letting LB Foye Oluokun and WR Russell Gage walk in free agency. But not everyone expects the team to regress in 2022.
CBS Sports’ Emory Hunt isn’t buying into these low expectations, saying it was “disrespectful” to predict five or fewer wins for the Falcons this season.
