The Atlanta Falcons have had some great players come through the franchise and make an impact. These players had a significant effect on different teams and different eras.
Because the Atlanta Falcons haven’t had the best success over the history of the franchise, some of the great players that have played for the Falcons never get talked about outside of the very few who witnessed their greatness on tv or in person.
At the end of the day, a player’s greatness shouldn’t be defined by the success of his team, football is a team sport, right?
Everyone likes to assume that the quarterback, running back or star pass rusher was always the best player on the team which isn’t always the case.
