Falcons seem clueless in coaching search



Terence Moore / Atlanta Journal-Constitution

When it comes to decision-making involving the Falcons bosses, it’s about to get uglier. Uglier than staying with the overmatched Rich McKay too long as general manager. Uglier than hiring the coaching disasters that were Jim Mora and Bobby Petrino. Uglier than allowing Bill Parcells to play them for suckers to get a better deal in Miami.

Uglier than anything you’ve seen from an NFL franchise in recent years, or maybe during any year.

They’re clueless. I mean, what are the Falcons doing? Their clumsy, convoluted and comical search for a head coach and general manager is even bizarre for what historically has been a goofy franchise. In other words, something outrageous is on the way, and it won’t be the hiring of Southern Cal’s Pete Carroll, another overmatched college coach. That’s because Carroll will save the Falcons from themselves by pulling a Bill Parcells by saying, “No,” on his way to somewhere else in the NFL or back to the USC campus.
