PLAYERS: Corey Peters
TEAMS: Atlanta Falcons
Hear Falcons DT Corey Peters LIVE on "The Sports Craze" Atlanta Falcons defensive Tackle Corey Peters will be joining me on my BlogTalkRadio show, "The Sports Craze".  We'll be talking to Corey about the NFL documentary film "Late Rounders" which he is featured in. Late Rounders follows graduating college football players as they attempt to take the next step in their careers and make the 53-man roster on an NFL football team.

Bobby Petrino Gets What He Deserves

Via 60 Max Power O  |  April 11, 2012
Up until last week's car crash, most people had forgotten about how Bobby Petrino left the Atlanta Falcons unceremoniously following just 13 games with the team back in 2007. The recent revelations that Petrino was having an illicit affair with a 25-year-old assistant caused every Falcons fan (like myself) to have the same reaction... "I'm not suprised, Petrino is...

Have The Falcons Peaked Under Mike Smith?

Via Grits Blitz  |  April 08, 2012
I was browsing google "news" for the Atlanta Falcons and came across an interesting article from a website called ThePigskinReport.com. The author basically states that he feels that the Falcons might be at their peak. His reasons for the feeling? The major players got one year older (Roddy, Turner and Gonzo), Matty Ice threw for more yards but also increased his turnovers...

Falcons still counting on tackle Baker

At the NFL meeting, Falcons coach Mike Smith reiterated his position that he made at the NFL Scouting Combine about the team being committed to Sam Baker as the left tackle. The offensive line was hurt significantly by back and elbow injuries to Baker last season. Smith believes the unit will be stronger if Baker, who had back surgery during the season, can return healthy. Will...

Via Football Nation  |  April 08, 2012
Going to a “small school” might hinder your first big NFL paycheck, but it doesn’t mean you can’t ball. From Falcons running back Michael Turner (Northern Illinois) to perennial Pro Bowl defensive end DeMarcus Ware (Troy),  many big names come out of these small schools and have impacts that will forever be remembered in the NFL.   The next potential small school, big...

Why It’s So Hard to Humble a Guy Like Bobby Petrino

Via Player Perspective  |  April 09, 2012
I might be the only Atlanta Falcons fan on earth that still has somewhat of a soft spot for Bobby Petrino. Yes, I think his cowardly ditch of the Falcons when Michael Vick was carted off to face dogfighting charges was epically wrong. But Petrino entertains me with his slick (slimy?) ways–even his press conferences can be things to remember. You know, the kinda things that get...
