3+ min ago (415+ words) The Atlanta Falcons gave themselves several chances to beat the New York Jets in Week 13, but found a way to lose another heartbreaker in the final seconds. The 27-24 road loss saw the team look passable on both offense and defense, but special teams turned out to be the common denominator. Jamal Agnew's muffed punt in the first quarter all but gifted the Jets a touchdown, while an 83-yard kick return again set Gang Green up in the red zone. And those short fields turned out to be the difference, which Raheem Morris was quick to admit while addressing the media following the defeat. Special teams have been a sore spot for Atlanta all season long, while it proved to be their true undoing in East Rutherford. After a strong showing in New Orleans, Zane Gonzalez missed a 55-yard field goal…...

40+ min ago (452+ words) It's become abundantly clear that Raheem Morris' future with the Atlanta Falcons is in jeopardy. He looked like a shoo-in to be fired earlier this season, but this question comes with legitimate debate now, especially when you consider that the Falcons are rolling with Kirk Cousins the rest of the way. However, it's become clear what Morris needs to do to keep this job: fire Zac Robinson. In Week 13's 27-24 loss to the measly New York Jets, the Dirty Birds' offense looked shaky following a strong showing against the Saints, which made the calls for Robinson's job grow louder than ever before. At this point, the 49-year-old's own days are numbered, but his OC needs to go far sooner. Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts were the only offensive players who showed up against the Jets, while Cousins looked like the…...

50+ min ago (1001+ words) It took two overtimes, but the Hawks were able to pull out the win. The Atlanta Hawks were in action on Sunday evening to face the Philadelphia 76ers. After a big win on Friday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Hawks were looking to continue that momentum against another team that has played well this season. The Hawks were once again without Kristaps Porzingis as he deals with an illness. As for the 76ers, they were able to get Joel Embiid and VJ Edgecombe back in the starting lineup as they've dealt with injuries. The Hawks lead the league in assists, and there's no surprise when they're making plays early in the game like this. Zaccharie Risacher made his presence known early as well, getting back on defense and blocking Embiid at the rim. Dyson Daniels took his chances against Andre Drummond in…...

1+ hour, 11+ min ago (298+ words) Clint Capela returned to the Houston Rockets this offseason after a five-year sabbatical as an Atlanta Hawk, but his time in Houston could come to a close. The Rockets are in win-now mode, as Kevin Durant is 37 and could begin his age-related decline at any time. Capela cannot be traded until December 15th, but he will be shopped after this date. While Durant still has the gas in the tank to compete this season, Capela looks done as a productive NBA player. He's averaged just 3.5 points and 4.7 boards in his 11 minutes a game, which is essentially replacement-value production. If the Rockets moved on from Capela, they could easily replace those lost rebounds with a younger player who has greater vertical pop and energy." The problem is that he was just signed to a fully guaranteed three-year, $21 million deal this offseason. This…...

2+ hour, 35+ min ago (444+ words) WCLK announcer Riva Blue and General Manager Wendy Williams (right) greet a listener at a broadcast earlier this year at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. To help recoup part of that gap, the collaboration is holding a "Back To The Roots" benefit concert on Wednesday, Dec. 3, 7 p.m. at Central Methodist Church, 501 Martin Luther King, Jr. Dr., in Atlanta. The church is located between the Morris Brown College campus and Mercedes-Benz Stadium. In July 2025, a Trump Administration decision to eliminate over $1 billion in national public broadcasting funds left stations across the country, including WCLK, facing sudden and severe budget shortfalls. The loss represents about 13% of WCLK's anticipated budget and jeopardizes quality programming, staff retention, and vital paid media training stipends for CAU students. According to WCLK General Manager Wendy Williams, the station has raised $175,000 of the shortfall. Listeners and supporters can still donate…...
