The Atlanta Falcons were founded in 1965 and play their home games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, with team headquarters in Flowery Branch. The franchise is owned by Arthur Blank, with a minority ownership group that includes Dominique Dawes, Warrick Dunn, Rosalind Brewer, and Will Packer, among others. The Falcons reached the Super Bowl following the 2016 season after posting an 11–5 record, and returned to the playoffs in 2017 at 10–6. The years since have been leaner: from 2020 through 2023, the team went 7–10 three consecutive times, bracketed by a 4–12 campaign in 2020. The 2024 and 2025 seasons each finished 8–9. Kevin Stefanski now serves as head coach, with Ian Cunningham as general manager, Tommy Rees coordinating the offense, and Jeff Ulbrich running the defense.
