Atlanta’s full 2024 slate is here.
We’ve been waiting on the Atlanta Falcons schedule for a while now, and with free agency quiet and the NFL Draft over, it’s the ideal time for the NFL to crash through the plate glass windows of our consciousness again. They’ve done so by releasing the 2024 schedule this evening.
As is custom, the Falcons unveiled one of the league’s better schedule videos to do so.

The team is lined up for four primetime games, and a slate that looks pretty manageable overall. You have four out of the first five games at home for Atlanta, a soft closing stretch featuring the Raiders, Giants, maybe-solid Commanders, and Panthers, and no more than two straight games in a row on the road in any given stretch. The Falcons have one more home game than they do away games, a Week 12 bye that’s fairly well-placed, and only a couple of standout, extremely difficult matchups.
If Atlanta is worth their salt this year and their improvements have meant anything, this looks like a schedule that should help them get out of the 7-10 purgatory they’ve found themselves in for years.
Here’s the full schedule. How many wins do you see here?
