The Atlanta Falcons football team has still yet to win a Super Bowl. Their latest appearance in the Super Bowl was during the 1998 season. The team lost to the Broncos 34-19. The team’s latest win-loss record was 7-9, finishing third in the NFC South Division. The team is riding on the hopes of their famous quarterback Michael Vick who has led them in the past, appearing in two playoffs and in the past six years.

The drafting of Michael Vick in 2001 has deeply influenced the offense. From a record of 4-12 Michael Vick helped the team finish with a 7-9 record and a playoff appearance next season. The reason for a lower-than-expected performance of the team is due to numerous injuries especially during the 2003 season where Michael Vick broke his leg and missed twelve games. The Atlanta Falcons puts their fate in the hands of Michael Vick. Even so, the team currently struggles to get on their feet for a better record.
