My first favorite player was Paul Warfield. Would say Jimmy Brown but he retired when I was 3 years old, so he was mainly my favorite because he was my Pops' favorite player. Oh, and because of the Dirty Dozen, which still chokes me up at the end.

Deion Sanders. Reason why I started watching the Falcons back in like 91.

Deion was my first but really despised him after he left and still not a fan anymore.  

If it were not for the Falcons, I would not even watch football. But, Deion is the only player I ever followed after he left the Falcons. 

The man was such a great play maker.  Hated to see him come back to Atlanta, kick the Falcon's ***, and proclaim it his house.....but man....such a great play maker.  

You have to admit, he was entertaining.  Were you not entertained when him and Rison started fighting....that was fun to watch.

Mike Vick

[Iowa irdfan2 4]

William Andrews is the reason I am Falcons fan.

 

Earl is the first Jersey I remember having

[Beast-N-Da-Sheetz 2,545]

Bo because he was the biggest, fastest, most athletic freak at the time. Plus my name is Bo lol.

Deion because he was so fast and shut down half of the field and took punts to the house with swag. Still greatest Falcon.

Before I went to a game in person it was Cliff Branch but after my first Falcons game it was Claude Humphrey then when he was traded Alfred Jenkins till #31 hit the scene.

ALFRED JENKINS

Prime.

Any person who can step on a NFL field make an impact then jump on a plane and play MLB on the same day is some sought of talent.

To me that’s just special.
