The Falcons are crushing fans' confidence
"Last week, Falcons fans' confidence was about where I would have expected it to be. Sure, the Falcons beat the Saints, and that's always fun. But one of the real kicks in the ass about this season is that the Saints are terrible! That win would have been much more fun if the Falcons weren't also terrible. Unsurprisingly, the win didn't move the needle much in terms of confidence."
"Now the team's coming off of a loss against another team that's currently slated to pick in the Top 6 in the 2026 draft: the New York Jets. I dread seeing the results of this week's survey, but we're doing it anyway. You know the drill: Take the survey, and tell us why you feel the way you do in the comments."
SB Nation Reacts is a survey of NFL fans that invites Falcons fans to sign up for weekly emailed surveys. Falcons fan confidence remained roughly unchanged after a win over the Saints because the Saints have performed poorly this season, reducing the win's significance. The Saints' weakness and the Falcons' own struggles limited any boost in optimism. The Falcons then lost to the New York Jets, a team projected to pick in the top six of the 2026 draft. Anticipation and concern accompany the release of the latest survey results, and fans are invited to take the survey and explain their feelings in the comments.
