[@ATLtheCity]

The boys got Falcons fans eating good this week

[@brennan-]

We been eating backups this offseason😭, glad to see some bijan n raheem content

[@user-jz5ts8dg1i]

& Kirk

[@jasonsmouse6570]

Defenses aren't going to dare Kirk to throw like they did with Desmond. Bijan is primed to take a huge leap forward with his production this year.

[@blanejohnson9045]

The Arthur smith/ridder falcons was the most embarrassing period as a falcons fans with what you mentioned. It’s hard to win in the nfl. But you pair a dunce of an offensive coordinator running te3 jet sweeps, with a qb like ridder and you get defenses just chilling knowing their job can’t get easier.

[@dominiclyles6344]

Dang, I’m a huge Bijan fan now. Dude seems super cool

[@BussinWithTheBoys]

He's the man!

[@blickpantheraj9029]

So happy these boys have God in their lives. Penix, Kirk and Bijan. I’m not a perfect Christian, but in a city like ATL having that moral compass will keep these guys focused.

[@datoxic]

Lol what the hell you mean "a city like ATL?" Bible belt bozos have such a weird idea of what ATL is like.

[@Rubberglass]

“Perfect Christian” doesn’t exist.

[@grimeythree4294]

This shit is so laughable

[@codyamerson6975]

Bijan still beating the TEXAS drum! Get pod Boys, Hook’Em🤘🏼

[@BigRobEnergy]

Love how you guys are getting right into the interviews with the guests now and not bringing them in after 75% of the video is over. Probably makes your watch time on each vid 500% higher too than usual which helps push vids out way more. Just a W all-around boys.

[@sojinkim5887]

I can tell he's an authentically great human. Hope he has the BEST season this year!

[@retrojordans41]

Love the ATL content #RISEUPBIHHHHH

[@snoopysands4230]

Great interview boys

[@zackandspennygolf]

Everyone who says Gibbs is better than Bijan needs their heads checked.

[@ATLfalcons808]

Facts!!!! If bijan had a qb last season like Gibbs did bijan would have been 10 times better….. all our 1st string offense players better than all lions guys…,, pitts better then laporta and drake better then st brown…. People saying we last year lions but if I’m being honest we going be better!! Rise up ATL!!!!!

[@zackandspennygolf]

@@ATLfalcons808 Serioius, bijan wont have to deal with 8 people in the box every game anymore. Dudes gonna have 7 receptions a game and 16 carries

[@Keith_No_Sweat]

Don't nobody say that shit but Detroit fans. Hell he know he ain't better than Bijan

[@Keith_No_Sweat]

​@@ATLfalcons808this year is gonna be the year Bijan shows out

[@ATLfalcons808]

@@Keith_No_Sweat amen brother ATL about shake the NFL by beating Steelers and the eagles

[@Keep1tMoving]

well done boys, keep it pushing

[@tricdaddy55]

The boy Bijan is really as awesome off the field as he is on it

[@robsargeant4737]

This was awesome he’s a good interview

[@darrenfritz6033]

Would pay to see Bijan give Arthur Smith some mustard at Heinz Field😂

[@TheBigshot789]

Shouts out the Boys!!!

[@1638whatsuphello]

Camp gagnon has for sure made my top 3 for podcasts rn, bros guests are top tier

[@IowaRealtor]

Bijan’s personality reminds me of Jonathan Taylor

[@yigyountry]

interesting take

[@ericicopini4955]

The Boys!!!

[@cryptomaniac5200]

Respect

[@jaxamop]

bijans my guy

[@joecarnazola3739]

shout out bijan for watching golf

[@philgod420]

He's right. Ricky Earl, then ya Charles was a stud as well. But it's gonna be hard to ever be better than Ricky and The Tyler Rose. HOOK 'EM!!!!!!!🤘🏼

[@yigyountry]

i’m a bigger football fan than basketball BUT there’s definitely an nba player than could play in the nfl. the roster sizes and body types are the main reasons

[@cfngetemgutta56]

Bijan should have his break out year this year. Last year was a good start but if his 2nd year turns out like it was for UT then the nfl is fina have some real problems on their hands.

[@zb9494]

just let will do the interviews. hes so so so much better

[@dken1149]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ChuloVeniVidiVici]

*Screen Shot This* London, Penix, Pitts and Robinson will be here when its all said and done. Terry has set this offense up for the next QB, how many teams are built this way, we can say whatever about the defense, but how many good vet QB's and top 10 rookie QB walk into a situation like this.

[@TheKickenWING]

This is disrespectful to Alabama RB’s! Ever heard of Derrick Henry, Mark Ingram, Shaun Alexander, Trent Richardson, T.J Yeldon, Eddie Lacy, Kenyan Drake, Josh Jacobs, Najee Harris, Alvin Kamara, Bo Scarbrough?

[@karsonturpie1560]

When you leave your team, the coach will say anything to keep you. "You were gonna start" "We had big plans for you next season" Maybe they mean what they say sometimes

[@gav5501]

Should’ve asked him if he was excited for year 10😈

[@bnice8959]

My dog great player

[@ajpierre]

He talking like Michigan is a powerhouse.. one and done championship with an asterisk

[@brennan-]

i stg😭😭

[@NathanBrewerYWFMS]

Only the national champions and one of the most historical college football programs in the nation but whatever lol

[@ajpierre]

@@NathanBrewerYWFMS 1st uncontested national championship in 75 years. Stop it. And they won because they played a bad Bama team a bad an ok washington team. let see what they do going forward. UGA would have obliterated them like they did in 2022.

[@Smartriide]

The media destroyed the Falcons over the Penix Jr pick , said it was the worst because we have Kirk , BUT THIS WAS THE WORST PICK EVER , we already had a 1k rusher, Bijan didnt increase any thing on the team , Jalen Carter is on a HOF track and Bijan is just a good player that’s it a good running back. Nothing more nothing less.

[@alex.p2194]

True y’all front office is terrible. Draft all this skill position players really early

[@Smartriide]

@@alex.p2194 I putting more blame on Arthur Smith , but yes this front office is horrible

[@7878robert]

Can someone remind Taylor that Michigan added more transfers last year than Ohio State did this year. He seems to forget that sometimes

[@therockoutboys6563]

bijan look more buff

[@Kevbot24]

That vision and processing speed are key for running backs, he's gonna be a dog this year

[@bigmacola9]

Dawgs have best backs. Obvious.

[@CarlosBoozeCruise]

Algo hack

[@stephenqueen2235]

Jordan mailata???

[@silverknight876]

Our issue wasn’t just with Bijan’s workload, it was in Arthur Smith’s blatant middle finger to the fantasy football community that was COSTING ATLANTA GAMES. BS like goal line jetsweeps to Jonnu Smith did not belong in the playbook and I trust Zac Robinson to get rid of stupidity like that. Arthur smith was trash and we’re glad he’s gone

[@nickl5383]

First baby

[@BrothaKays]

If Bijan gets traded to the Steelers cuz Arthur smith ima stop watching nfl lol jk but damn I might

[@cryptomaniac5200]

Atl takeover coming soooooon

[@stevenselleck5460]

Bijan would've gotten STUFFED by Michigan's defense🤣🤣🤣

[@stevenselleck5460]

Dude's a bum

[@jrfirefiher]

He’s not getting stuffed in the nfl

[@stevenselleck5460]

@@jrfirefiher not even top 10 YPC he's even behind a few qb's. And he's way behind Jahmyr Gibbs an all around better player and back. Sounds like he's getting stuffed to me lmaoo

[@alejandrotellez2962]

​@stevenselleck5460 cause no pass game lmao you don't know ball 😂

[@a-t-lheatsquad5029]

Troll in the dungeon!! You don’t know sh*t about fu*k my man. Rise up outta here👋🏾

[@Axel2992]

Jesus man this guy is boring

[@Randy4me]

Tyler Allgeier runs for 1000 yds and over 5ds/carry and they draft Bijan and their team sucked. The next year they sign Cousins to a massive contract and then draft Penix without addressing bigger needs. Sounds like the GM is looking to get run out of town.

[@Johnny_Bravo_]

Jahmyr Gibbs is better

[@limbs2468]

It's true

[@user-vn3uk9qm3h]

This dude is so boring
