The unholy NFL whoopee cushion now sits in Flowery Branch. As if blowing a 28-3 lead in the freaking Super Bowl didn't confirm it enough, the Falcons are unquestionably the NFL's butt of the joke, pro football's grand punchline.

The Atlanta Falcons could not have lost in more brutal fashion than they did in Sunday's 34-10 blowout at the hands of the Miami Dolphins. Several factors contributed to the team's fourth loss of the season, including a sleepy offense headed by an underperforming Kirk Cousins.

With time running out for NFL teams to make moves ahead of the Nov. 4 trade deadline, Kirk Cousins reportedly wants another chance to start.

The Vikings, Panthers and Falcons all took blowout losses in Week 8 of the NFL season, and it may mean more than just one defeat for them.
