Follow the AJC in Berlin: Bergeron, Norton out vs. Colts, plus German dinner
It’s off to Berlin for Falcons beat writer D. Orlando Ledbetter for Sunday’s matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.
Make that Sunday morning football — maybe the high point of the NFL’s international games.
Ledbetter checks in with daily updates on his journey to and around Berlin — no, he won’t wear any lederhosen — and keep up with the Falcons during the week.
Falcons vs. Colts
Kickoff: 9:30 a.m. Sunday, Olympic Stadium, Berlin
TV: Fox 5, NFL Network
Records: Falcons 3-5; Colts 7-2
Line: Colts -5.5
Outlook: The Falcons are on a three-game skid and they need a win to stop the season from going further into a spiral. They had a spirited second-half comeback but fell short against the Patriots. The Colts are tied for the best record in the league, after losing to the Steelers last week.
