The Atlanta Falcons have looked into a number of options since dismissing head coach Arthur Smith earlier this month after three years in charge. The Falcons are reaching far and wide in their hiring process, from FBS National Champion Jim Harbaugh to young offensive masterminds Bill Callahan and Ben Johnson, and even the GOAT himself.
Who Will Take Over As The Atlanta Falcons’ Next Head Coach?
According to Falcon former GM Thomas Dimitroff it appears the Falcons have made significant progress in selecting their future head coach.
Belichick Bill The Head Coach of the New Atlanta Falcons?
Even though it hasn’t been publicly or even subtly decided yet, Belichick appears to be ahead in the competition to become the Falcons’ next head coach. It would be more accurate to state that the Atlanta Falcons are ahead in the Bill Belichick sweepstakes.
Are Head Coaching Positions With The Falcons Among The NFL’s Most Desired?
This Falcons club, with the exception of the crucial quarterback position, appears to be exactly what Bill Belichick is said to prefer: a talented but underachieving team.
In addition, he is the first individual to have been given a second interview by the Falcons brass, headed by owner Arthur Blank, according to the NFL’s coaching tracker. It’s likely that Blank wants someone who is not only on the defensive end of the ball but also someone who has been tried and proven (and has had incredible success) after failing miserably with a young offensive guru type in Arthur Smith.
We’ll have to wait and watch whether Belichick actually takes over as the Falcons’ new head coach. If that’s the case, it will undoubtedly draw fresh attention to the organization, whose Super Bowl dreams he once dashed, seemingly forever ago.
