Locked On Falcons
Independent daily show from the Locked On network: local beat talk, not the club’s official audio. About 25 minutes; good once you have picked a side.
Stadium
Mercedes-Benz Stadium
Atlanta, Georgia
Listed capacity 71,000 · opened 2017
Retractable petal roof; shares the building with MLS’s Atlanta United.
Founded
Expansion club, 1966. NFC South since the 2002 realignment.
Names and nicknames
Officially the Falcons. Fans and headlines often say Dirty Birds after a late-1990s play-off run. That is a nickname, not the club name.
Key achievements
- Two Super Bowl appearances: lost XXXIII (1999) and LI (2017).
- Super Bowl LI is the 28-3 collapse: still the first fact many UK viewers learn about them.
Notable names
A handful of all-time or iconic figures, not this year’s roster.
- Julio Jones
- Matt Ryan
- Deion Sanders
- Michael Vick

Stadium names and listed seating capacities are for the 2026 NFL season, mainly from Wikipedia’s current NFL stadiums list (cited there to club media guides and reporting). Super Bowl counts are after Super Bowl LX (8 February 2026). Naming rights, renovations and new builds change: treat figures as a snapshot, not a deed.
