Falcons - Panthers recap: The winds of change become a maelstrom as Atlanta sinks to 0-5

The Falcons were pissed, as we’ve been reminded to the point of parody. Atlanta needed to show that they were a capable football team and that the season wasn’t over, and everyone from Matt Ryan to Isaiah Oliver needed to show that so-so or worse years in 2020 were not going to continue after an ugly 0-4 start. We’ve heard nothing but “we’ve just got to take this one game at a time” from this team this season, but each game has brought more misery and new depths of despair for a team that wanted to believe they were going to contend in 2020.
