Worry about your own coach leaving.

You've got to be kidding. Falcons are a dumpster fire. Why would Kirby want a demotion?

Good. Maybe I'll draft Bijan next year. Absolutely criminal how they used him and Pitts.

Atlanta is in Georgia. Relax pups.

Articles are saying Smith made somewhere between $2-5 Million a year. That's not remotely close to being where the Falcons could even money-whip Kirby into coming.

Perhaps the Falcons will rehire Mike Smith so they can turn around and fire him an hour later. That idiot hasn't suffered enough for losing the way he lost the Superbowl.

Rumors are that Todd Monken is on the short list. That'd be ideal...Falcons, being the dumpster fire they've always been, hire Monken, fire him in 3 years and he returns to Athens for a few years.
One thing you can count on is the Falcons will botch the hire. Smith's base salary was $500k his first year. He was apparently earning somewhere between $2 and $5 million a year. Kirby Smart is making somewhere in the neighborhood of $12 million a year. Highly doubtful Falcons come close to that number and even more doubtful Smart would leave an established program that is built and about as close to auto pilot as a program can get for a dumpster fire with as shitty a history as the Falcons have. Falcons do not need a coach of any quality, tickets are sold and the money is like a printing press in the NFL...you do not have to win, all you gotta do is have a team.

I don't think Kirby leaves either. He has the job he wants and is probably close to Dooley status in Athens (you Georgia guys can confirm that).But, does he have the itch like Nick did or did he learn from that experience?
How far will Blank go to get what he wants? If he wants Kirby at all.

Gumps are so damn stupid

Why are Dawg fans even dignifying this? Quit taking the bait!

Why wouldn't they? Arthur Blank has never had a problem spending/wasting money.
Highly doubt it happens or Kirby would be interested but Blank has got to make some type of splash with the next hire.

How many more yards was Bijan supposed to have? He had nearly 1000 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards.

No wonder Smith was so upset after the game . He knew his arse was getting fired.

Saban to the Falcons will be the greatest curveball yet.
Posted on 1/8/24 at 7:13 am to TideTurf
That would piss off most of their fanbase.
Posted on 1/8/24 at 7:13 am to TideTurf
Kirby saw what happened with Saban going to the pros. He probably stays right where he’s at.

Failed and still landed at a top cfb job? Bbad argument.
With that said, Kalen Deboer would be a college coach to look at.
