Did you have to bring up the Falcons?

"The Falcons interviewed Macdonald, then the Baltimore defensive coordinator, for the head coaching opening Jan. 12, 2024, before hiring the recently fire Raheem Morris."

And the Falcons just went from one losing coach to another.

Of course they did. And now to fix that mistake…wait for it…they hire an asst coach from the powerhouse program Cleveland! Go FalCants

Great tribute to a Georgia student, grad student, and grad assistant.

Just more proof that the Falcons couldn’t make the right choice for a head coach if it bit them in the rear. I don’t think they made a good choice this time either. He probably knew he could be more successful in Seattle than Atlanta.

about 2 minutes left in AFC snow globe championship game and Tony Romo says New England has a distinct advantage bc they are wearing snow ghillie suites. I added the ghillie suit part but he did say they are blending in with the snow. Lmao.

He simplifies the defense for the pros . Surely that wouldn’t work in college .

Don't forget..Rams HC Sean McVay also played HS football in Georgia, at Marist.

Great article. I honestly had no idea that he’s a Georgia grad. Very cool. I’m still pulling for Stafford and McClendon Jr. to win, but if the Seahawks get to the Super Bowl I’ll certainly be happy for Macdonald. That said, what stood out to me was the part about the Falcons passing on him. OF COURSE they did. That makes so much sense. But I’m glad for Macdonald it turned out that way lest his obvious coaching talent be wasted on such a sorry franchise like the Falcons.

And the Falcons passed on him! Arthur Blank made another mistake!

And in the offseason he tours with the Doobie Brothers!
