That girl dancing with the bandana at 6:27 was too HOT! I just loved the Falcons image back during this time or the 90s with these uniforms. They really were trying to be like the Raiders of the NFC and the Falcons should've never removed themselves from this image with the black jerseys and silver pants. MC Hammer was so hot in the early 90s so this was an excellent celebrity mascot they had along with Deion Sanders. Just such a cool team with a lot of swag cool gimmick from Jerry Glanville.
I imagine Jerry Glanville's style, alone, made waves and sold tickets. He was good for football, good for the game, win, or lose. His teams were exciting, at times, flamboyant, and his defenses were gang-tackling and sometimes, on the edge.Those early Falcon defensive units, coached by Glanville in the late 70s/early 80s, were not talkative, to my knowledge, but were notorious hitters. They drew lots of boos in Dallas, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh (1978), and San Francisco, for their bruising style of play.
This was perhaps the most fun team in NFL History, but their issue was that they lost in the playoffs to one of the greatest single season teams ever. As an outsider I have admit, this was the team that put hip hop on the NFL Map.
Despite having one of the nfl's toughest schedules, atlanta still finished 10-6, including a sweep of the very talented 49ers, 2 wins in New orleans, and a trip to the divisional round for only the 2nd time in team history
If that team was gift wrapped the NFC Western division in 1991 by the Saints second half season collapse in my opinion that wild card with the Saints would've been at Fulton County Stadium and the playoffs would be All AFC Saturday on ABC Raiders vs Kansas City 12:30pm Jets vs Houston 4:00pm All NFC Sunday Dallas @ Chicago 12:30pm CBS New Orleans @ Atlanta 4:00 NBC
In 1991, Mike Kenn #78 of the Atlanta Falcons shut down the NFL's top sacker and Defensive Player of the Year Pat Swilling, who did not register a sack when facing Kenn. His pass blocking allowed the Falcons to set a team record by giving up only 31 sacks in 531 passing attempts. Kenn only gave up one. He was voted first-team All-Pro by the Associated Press.
1991 Atlanta Falcons was magical year finish second place NFC West Division 10 - 6 they beat New Orleans Saints NFC wildcard playoff and finally they lose to Washington Redskins NFC divisional playoffs 🏈 will always remember known as Too Legit to Quit
The Saints had the best banner of all....TOO LEGIT BULLSHIT! And those banners turned out to be right the next two seasons. Of course, all of the blame rests with Glanville the Genius thinking Chris Miller was better than Brett Favor or Fayvre or whatever his name was.
Had he been able to stay healthy Chris Miller could been in the conversation for best QB in the league at that time. Young, Elway, Aikman, Marino, Miller could’ve been right there with them. But what if they have given Favre a chance?

I watched the NFL Network Timeline episode on this team. Very fun entertaining team for sure.
I ❤️ this falcons team
I still have this on VHS.
This was a good falcons team

I love this channel ESPECIALLY the Falcons videos.
the 1991 atlanta falcons was about doing shit their way too.

I feel like Deion is more known for his time in Dallas but he was most dominant with Atlanta.

Mike Kenn would be in the Hall of Fame if he participated in more than six playoff games in 17 seasons.

Could you have imagined how good they could have been had Chris Miller not gotten hurt and deion had stuck around?

@@Paul8820 farve in Atlanta was gonna be a disaster. He needed a place like green bay to flouish
33:53 a crime Nobis is not in the Hall. Those two reasons are exactly right. Falcons continue to be a joke
The name of the game is winning not dancing save that for the dance floor not on the football field
Too much hip hop come Playoff time , they were hip hopped out of the playoffs by the Redskins
