Quinn was a good man, but his tenure has been a roller coaster, and I'm glad it's ending. Hopefully Blank will hire the right man.

This. I really like DQ the person but this team is plainly a train wreck. The fact we aren't 3-2 right now is a joke - even the FOX NFL panelists after the game were at a loss for words.

Thanks to DQ for his efforts, and for his involvement in the Atlanta community. But his time has long since passed.

We're a long ways away from our ultimate goal, but we took the first step in getting back there, today.

As bad as all those other losses
were,this one was the worst.

It was a horrible performance and clear that the team had lost all focus and when that happens the team is lost

Quinn was a nice guy, but he's a used car salesman that conned Blank for too fricking long. GTFO, and take Thomas and Rich with you.

Falcons need a new owner.

Honest question: Do you guys really trust Arthur to make the right hire? I sure as hell don't. He has no idea what he's doing. He needs to sell the team.

TD needs to go as well.


Need to bring in successful front office people that know how to not trade away tons of assets for short return in drafts. Patriots rarely trade up in drafts and still whip every bodies arse. Its weird because Dimitrioff came from them and he had a total opposite draft approach. He hit on some good players and even Julio but overall his draft misses were brutal.

Front office firings should be next

As long as they don't hire Eric Bienemy. Dude is fool's gold IMO.

Last thing I want is some unproven clipboard holder like Bienemy. We could’ve had McCarthy last year.

This is lunacy. He's widely considered one of the best owners in sports by his peers and media pundits alike.

The Falcons job is considered the #1 available job in the off-season because of Arthur Blank.

You clearly don't remember the Falcons under the Smith regime. My lord. It was hopeless.

AB is the reason I do think things will turn around. He's been successful at everything he's done.

This is likely the worst opinion I've read on the Falcons in 2020, in a year where there are a flood of them.

It's been a disaster for Dallas. He's past his prime.

Bucs fan here...

Y’all would wreck shop if you hired Joe Brady and drafted Lawrence. A good GM for you would be either Edd Dodds or Mike Borgonzi.

Please don’t do this

Don’t worry. Falcons will win 7 of 8 down the stretch and draft 15th
