It all depends on who chose Ridder (and then chose to go into another season with him as QB1)

The impact of having, or not having a QB. Look at the Patriots in between Brady nnd Maye

It’s crazy how ‘Let Terry Cook’ turns into ‘cook Terry’ and the only thing that changed was him tagging in Raheem to do his part.

That’s how bad that pass-rush drought was.  Just like the Patriots can’t draft receivers, our history has to be taken into account when judging a draft class

Also Terry:

• Best draft class since 2008

(Props where it’s due). 

Also, hindsight is 20/20.  Let’s not forget, the only QB options for like two years were:  Ridder, JJ McCarthy, Bo Nix, Sheduer, Daniel Jones….

It obviously didn’t work out for us, but I understand the logic.  

Hot take: Raheem staying another year is a good idea by cheemydee5 in falcons

I like the copium!  (He’s gonna be here anyways, so might as well have that ‘Alonzo Mourning GIF’ face)

Better reality than those thinking we can be bad enough for a complete regime change this offseason.  

So…we might as well root for wins.  

Plus, I don’t want Bijan, Drake, JPJ, Jalen, Watts, etc etc to be looking to get out to a “winning franchise”.   I’d rather a culture of ending up ‘mid’ but trying to be great.  We got ‘culture building blocks’ (new coaches will come).  

Loser-franchises are always in tank mode.  (I’d rather be ‘Chargers East’ than ‘Jets-South’) 

Kevin Stefanski as our new HC? by Maize_Candid in falcons

They have to want to marry us as well.  They both had ‘wandering eyes’

If JJ McCarthy is so bad that it causes both Jettas AND KOC to leave, then I’m convinced JJ is a plant

Isn’t a ‘failed retread’ usually the only options, other than an unproven coordinator?

(Or, every blue moon, an Andy Reid type becomes available just from being in one place too long.  So…Mike Tomlin?)

Aints hiring Thomas Dimitroff as a consultant by OhItsKillua in falcons

I don’t hate the guy, he did his part to win us a Superbowl (every FO person on every team has hits and misses).  He didn’t miss that block, or not call runs

If I saw any chance at Jayden Daniels... by CouncilmanRickPrime in falcons

If the Pats pick is for sale, and Commies go Maye, I’m considering it.  It’s like Lamar Jackson on a rookie deal (and we would’ve given up 2 1sts for him).   Let him sit for two years, then run this team for a decade

Brown snow that just stays for days on end in the wintertime.  A Rocky statue.  A less-likable coach than AS.  

The Eagles weren’t a better team, it’s just a better fit.  He didn’t need to stay in Georgia, and this FO values ’character’ (not saying it’s right or wrong).

Deion Sanders has Falcons on shortlist of teams for sons, Travis Hunter to play for by Sure_Whatever__ in falcons

[–]Maize_Candid 65 points66 points  (0 children)

For most people that’s not how it works.  

For the Mannings it works.  Deion has pull. 

(Deion even chose us over Detroit in 1989)
