Atlanta cleaning house....

Fallout from the biggest choke on turf...

Falcons are firing DC and DL coach.

This means they will start the season with two new coordinators and at least one new positions coach.

I guess they were not happy with getting zero pressure on Brady when it mattered?

Anywho, Atlanta is in real danger of a multi season superbowl hangover it seems.

ATL defense played well IMO.

Not their fault they had to defend 90+ plays against the GOAT and had no legs in the 4th and in overtime.

This whole thing reeks of Arty Blank.

Well, if your defense allows the offense to methodically move down the field and rack up those 99 plays, then that defense is at least partially their fault.  New England is not a big play team, that is how they play.  I do agree though that both the offense and defense were at fault and that passing the ball at the 25 or so yard line was a ridiculous call.

Young team gets to the Super Bowl and loses the game in the 4th qtr.  Nerves, youth?  Who knows

But, they were good enough to get there and good enough for 3 qtrs to win.  The owner however, seems to be one who also looks youthful and nervous by wiping out most of his staff.  Temper tantrum for a team within 1 qtr of winning the Super Bowl.  30 other teams could not get anywhere close to that success.

For the Panthers, we could use a bit more of the accountability and for the Falcons, a bit less.  No reach vs over reach

    • I would say that he's pulling things out of his ass to get people to visit his site.
    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
