Falcons’ Disastrous Loss to Eagles Raises Questions About Raheem Morris’s Future
The Atlanta Falcons' 34–10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on October 26, 2025, has cast a long shadow over head coach Raheem Morris’s future, with many questioning his ability to lead the team to the playoffs. After a promising start to the season, the Falcons are now facing back-to-back defeats, including a disappointing loss to the San Francisco 49ers the week before.
In a post-game interview, a visibly frustrated Morris said, “It’s frustrating. We didn’t execute when it mattered most, and that’s on me. We’ve got to get back to the fundamentals and figure out how to play smarter, especially in critical moments.”
Morris also addressed the performance of his quarterback, Michael Penix Jr., who had been playing through a foot/ankle bone bruise. Despite his injury, Penix completed 21 of 38 passes for 241 yards and a touchdown in the loss to the 49ers.
The Falcons’ offensive struggles have been a major point of concern, with the team ranking 28th in points per game (18.3) and tied for 29th in red-zone efficiency (44.44%). Morris acknowledged the need for improvement in these areas, stating,
On top of the offensive struggles, the team’s recent internal issues added to the mounting pressure. Wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III was sent home due to a personal matter and was later released by the team. Morris called the situation a “distraction” but didn’t offer further details, leaving the media and fans speculating about the nature of McCloud’s absence.
As the Falcons’ playoff hopes start to fade, questions about Morris’s leadership are growing louder. The team’s inability to maintain consistency on both sides of the ball and internal turmoil have put his job security in jeopardy.
With crucial games ahead, the Falcons will need to address both their on-field execution and off-field distractions. Morris will have to prove that he can get the team back on track or face the possibility of a change at the helm.
Tucker Kraft Makes Crazy Packers History With Unstoppable Week 8 Performance Against Steelers
The good times keep on rolling for Tucker Kraft and the Green Bay Packers. On Sunday, Green Bay spoiled Aaron Rodgers’ mission to beat his former team, as the Packers took down the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium to the tune of a 35-25 score.
Kraft, who dealt with a knee issue earlier this season, had a big role in Green Bay’s fifth win in the 2025 NFL campaign. The former South Dakota State Jackrabbits star repeatedly tormented the Steelers’ defense on his way to a historic evening in Pittsburgh.
Tucker Kraft had a night in Packers-Steelers
Kraft got down to work early for the Packers, as he scored the game’s first touchdown. He took a pass from quarterback Jordan Love with just a little over five minutes left in the opening quarter and took it to the house for a 16-yard score.
He did more than just that, as Kraft also made tight end history in the same game.
“Tucker Kraft is the only TE in GB history w/ 300+ rec yds & 4+ rec TD through first 6 games 🫡,” shared NFL+ on X, formerly Twitter during the first quarter of the contest.
Overall, Kraft lit up the Steelers’ defense for 143 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He did all that efficiently, as he caught seven of nine targets to lead the way downfield for Green Bay, which has now recorded three wins in a row since a bye in Week 5.
