In 1986 we played the Bears here in ATL, it was the big TV game of the week. I separated my shoulder in the 2nd quarter. After the game John Madden and Pat Sumerall sat on the tailgate of my truck with me and drank a beer. Great memory. RIP to the best broadcast team ever!
I have been fortunate enough to call every
@M_Ryan02
game and talk before and after every game of his 14 yr career. No one has represented the
@AtlantaFalcons
with more class, dignity and excellence on and off the field. The numbers speak for themselves, on and off! Thanks Matt.
I know it's hard Falcon Fans but be patient.
@desmondridder
grew in the game Sun. Antsy early on but settled in, did a lot of good things at the line of scrimmage pre snap, ultimately didn't turn the ball over and when needed made a clutch 4th down play. Give him some time.
Did we,
@AtlantaFalcons
, win today by 2 touchdowns? I can’t tell by the reactions by so many of our great fans. We struggled some on offense in game 1 but made plays when we needed to. Cashed in on the defenses takeaways and beat a divisional opponent by 14 pts. We’re 1-0!
Congrats
@CycloneMBB
on another Big 12 Tournament Title, Hilton South was at full throat! Way to go
#CyclONEnation
, we could hear you all the way down in here in Georgia.
The rule states that if you go to the ground on your own that when the knee touches you’re down. So the mark was correct but the hit he took should have been flaggged. Matt’s unsportsmanlike penalty and the illegal hit would have offset and ATL should have had the ball on the 1.
I understand the business but hate to see
@Mo_12_Sanu
leave. Thanks Mo for all you did for the team from your play to your leadership. A big thanks for your honesty and willingness to always share a moment with me. I’ll look forward to our next opportunity for alittle “Bean Talk”
Congrats to
@CycloneATH
and
@ISUMattCampbell
signing a 6 yr extension. With all the crazy stuff going in college football firings and hiring. Iowa State made the best move in nation.
#CyclONEnation
Man it kills me to hear that
@GradyJarrett
is out for the year. The man embodies work ethic and relentless effort. It will be difficult without Big Grady but this defense must surge forward. That’s what
#97
demands. “You Shall Not Pass”, you will be back Big Man!
Congratulations to
@ISUMattCampbell
and
@CycloneFB
for a hard fought victory over
@TexasFootball
. It was classic old school football game with all 3 phases of the game contributing for both teams. There’s still work to be done this season but proud as always to be a Cyclone!
I don’t use the word great often but it applies perfectly to Tommy Nobis. I’m saddened today to hear of his passing. I had the opportunity to spend a good bit of time with Tommy, and he was a very giving person and a hard nosed football player.
#RIP
Thank you all who reached about our broadcast today. I really appreciate all the kind words. We found out fairly late that
@WesDurham
wouldn’t make it to the game.
@squidbilly929
was unbelievably valuable for me today as was
@millsradio
. Thanks to all who listened.
Tremendous effort tonight by

@StanfordWBB
in OT at Stanford. As entertaining a game as you’ll ever see. No reason to hang your head ladies, we are proud of you! You’ll be back!
My son Jimmie is moving to Arizona and I’m helping him get out there. After a tearful departure from Atlanta, we begin day 2 with a nice early start across Louisiana and a quick stop at, you guessed it, Chick- Fil- A. He’s promised me he’ll remain an
@AtlantaFalcons
fan.
Thank you to you all for the Anniversary and Birthday wishes! I was overwhelmed by all of your messages. I’m so grateful for our continued contact. All the best to all of you! Thanks again! Here’s to you🍺
Congrats to
@ATLUTD
. MLS Champions!!! Congrats to Mr Blank, no one deserves it more! And congrats to the fans of Atlanta, no group deserves it more. Go crazy you’re Champions!
Honored to be named one of the 5 finalists for “Georgia Sportscaster of the Year “ by
@NSMASportsMedia
. Realizing that this state is a hotbed for sports broadcasting makes it tremendously humbling! Congrats to all that have been also honored.
You get “Griddy” when you know the preseason is over and know your looking directly at the regular season! Can I get a “Hell yeah!” my version of course😂!
@AtlantaFalcons
@929TheGame
Happy Birthday to my partner on
@AtlantaFalcons
Radio for the last 20 yrs
@WesDurham
! Simply the best in the business. Thanks Wes for carrying me for so long😂😂. Have a glass of wine 🍷 on me!
We made it! My son and I set out a couple of days ago from Atlanta to Phoenix, he’s moving there for a work opportunity. He drove the entire 1868 miles. I was in charge of beef jerky and comedic relief. He did a far better job than I did. But what an incredible time together!
Happy Birthday to my man
@WesDurham
. The best in the business, I’ve had the great honor to share the broadcast booth with him the last 18 yrs on
@AtlantaFalcons
Radio Network. There’s nobody better as a broadcaster but a amazingly a better friend. Here’s to a few more🍺!
Thank you to all the great fans that ride with us every week. I appreciate you beyond words. Thanks for listening and for all your outstanding comments and thoughts. Have a tremendous offseason and get ready to rise next season.
@AtlantaFalcons
@929TheGame
Love hearing from all the Falcons Fans that listening to the Falcon Radio network.
@WesDurham
and I appreciate you all of you. It was a rough season, no doubt, but we enjoyed being with y’all every weekend. Thanks for ridin with us each week.
@AtlantaFalcons
Congrats to
@GradyJarrett
on a new contract with his home town team
@AtlantaFalcons
. Great deal for both! Not only is Grady a force and an important part of the defense, he’s a classy guy that is a face of the organization. Congrats big fella! Well deserved, now let’s go ball!
Definitely doesn’t feel right that Buffalo doesn’t get a chance to touch the ball in OT. Too good of a game to be decided by a coin toss especially in the playoffs and this isn’t the 1st time. Needs to be looked at NFL.
I was blessed as a young player to have the opportunity to be around Steve Bartkowski. Great player, best passer of the ball I’ve ever seen,and unbelievable human being. He was so kind to me, this young guy country kid that had so much to learn. Please watch and enjoy his story.
Congrats to
@CalvinRidley1
, explosive , stop and start on a dime, big play addition to our offense. Fear not Falcon fans, there’s still a wealth of talent available in this draft. TD and DQ are just gettin started.
@AtlantaFalcons
@929TheGame
@MarkZinno
Matt Ryan with Jones, Ridley, Gage, Hurst and Gurley to distribute the ball to. 9 consecutive 4000yd seasons, 321 Career TDs, and 65.4% completion(6th NFL history) and 67 career 300 yd games. Based on the criteria you laid out. The list sucks!
Fun night in Miami! Cool to see the guys that are battling to make this team carry the core principles that this ‘23 team is about to the game. 5 sacks, 4 takeseats and stingy in the redzone on D. Run the rock with Some play action success on Off. PR TD by Alford. Good start!
Meant to get this out yesterday, Happy Birthday to the very best play by play guy there is in the industry, my Falcons broadcast partner
@WesDurham
. Great friend and an amazing talent! Thanks Wes for dragging me long for 15 seasons, here’s to a few more!
In the house for
@Big12Conference
media days in Dallas. 5 teams today and 5 teams tomorrow. My boys

@TraversWDSU
Via my man
@MikeBellATL
from
@929TheGame
. Remember this no call New Orleans? Wow looks awfully familiar, get over it, it wasn’t the only blown call in the game that would have impacted the game, example the Goff face mask at the 2 yard line that wasn’t called. Move on!
Like the pick of
@ajterrell_8
, I believe he’ll be outstanding in the Falcon schemes. Excellent press cover man, I believe he is the best corner in the draft when mixing press and off coverage. He’s a winner, local kid from Westlake HS.
In reading all the reports of my statements about Grady Jarrett’s contact situation, I realize I grossly over stated the situation. I don’t have any knowledge of what his agent is seeking for him. Reference to another player and his deal was bad judgement on my part. Apologies
Please send your thoughts and prayers to my good friend
@WesDurham
and family as his dad Woody passed. Woody will live on because of the great person he was, his Iconic broadcasting career, and his 2 outstanding sons, Taylor and Wes.
#HeyWoody
RIP
The news of Keith Jackson’s passing hits me hard. The iconic voice of College Football. I couldn’t wait for Saturday afternoon to hear him call the game. He had the ability to make every game big. RIP “Hoss”
Thanks to all that have reached out and told us that you were listening. We love it! You’re right there with us! Let’s do it again Saturday night, LA, we love it! Have a safe and Happy New Year!
As you go about your day today, send a thought and prayer to my good friend
@WesDurham
and his family as they celebrate his father’s life with a memorial in Chapel Hill.
#HeyWoody
A tremendous player and a better human being. One of the best I’ve had the privilege to be around. Good luck Kee, I will always be pulling for you! All the best.
Really cool to visit with
@BreeceH
today on
@SXMCollege
. THE best RB in the draft! He’s going to make one fan base in the NFL very happy! “Breece Lightning”
Happy Birthday to my guy and the Best in the business
@WesDurham
! Thanks my man for holding my hand the last 20 seasons. Here’s to running it back for several more 🤞
Love the direction and commitment by TD and DQ to solidify the OL both thru free agent vets and and nasty in your face Rooks. Falcons are much better and deeper at a pivotal group that determines whether you win or lose. And they aren’t done yet.
@AtlantaFalcons
Championship Saturday

#CyclONEnation
enjoy the fact they deserve to be here
Always hate losing a game. Certainly the
@AtlantaFalcons
did not play anywhere near their capability, but you can cry about it and play the blame game or get to work to be better next week. Having been around this team enough, I have a strong feeling it will be the later.
Enjoy your Memorial Weekend with you’ve family and friends. Let’s not forget how we got here, this is a time to reflect and remember those that provide our opportunity to enjoy this weekend. God bless our veterans both past and present! Here’s to you! God Bless America 🇺🇸

#CyclONEnation
Devastating news to hear of the loss of Coach Greg Knapp. He was an outstanding football coach but so much more than that. A tremendous father and husband. He was a friend and an incredible person. RIP my friend, you will be missed. God bless this family.
Because of broadcast responsibilities, we delay our annual Turkey Bowl to today. It was worth the wait I love being with these guys, they mean everything to me. Hope all of you had some family time!
#blessed
Congrats to my man Beau Morgan or as you probably know him
@squidbilly929
on being a part of
@929TheGame
new morning show. He has work long, tireless hours behind the scene as a show producer and executive producer for the Atlanta Falcons RN. He made us better. He’ll be awesome!
Hate to hear about of the injury to my fellow Cyclone
@BreeceH
. In case you weren’t paying attention he was ballin out, including a 60 yard TD run this weekend! Hang in there “Lightning” you’ll be back better the ever!
