'End for Marcus Mariota': Atlanta Falcons quarterback slammed as 'worst passer in NFL history'
FLOWERY BRANCH, GEORGIA: The Atlanta Falcons could not get going in the fourth quarter against the Carolina Panthers but a little ray of hope shone when Marcus Mariota hit KhaDarel Hodge on a 25-yard TD pass after a 97-yard drive. The Falcons could have gotten the ball back but they ended up turning it over in their own territory. Throughout Thursday night, November 10, Mariota was under immense pressure. He was sacked multiple times. His poor performance is now being slammed on social media.
As the Falcons prepared to play division rival Carolina on Thursday night, Mariota's future was unknown. "When I was going into free agency, I kind of understood that if I got a chance to play again, it was really going to be probably my last shot," Mariota said, according to ESPN. "Most guys don't even really get a second shot."
