Based in Atlanta, the Atlanta Falcons are a professional American football team. The Falcons are a team in the National Football Conference (NFC) South division of the National Football League (NFL). After the NFL granted then-owner Rankin Smith a franchise to prevent him from joining the rival American Football League (AFL), the Falcons, who were established in June 1965, became an expansion team in 1966.
The Falcons have played in two Super Bowls: Super Bowl XXXIII in 1998, where they lost to the Denver Broncos 34–19, and Super Bowl LI, where they fell to the New England Patriots 34–28 in overtime. Having never won a title, they are the oldest major professional sports team in America. They play their home games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
