I took a different viewpoint. I don’t wanna make anything about race solely cause Morris is a hell of a Defensive Coordinator, but I think Arthur Blank wanted a “ Cultural Fit “ kind of coach. Younger than BB and can relate to where the majority of these young men are coming from. I think Blank has had a problem with “ Buy in “ from a player and fan standpoint and I don’t see that being a problem with Morris at the helm. Atlanta has long been a proud black city, with HBCUs and many prominent leaders of the black community. I think Blank sees that it may be a black coach that gets the buy in from the not only the players but the city as a whole.
He could’ve been done that as he has to interview a black or minority coach to satisfy the Rooney Rule , but I think he’s found the coach that checks the other boxes as well.
I coach youth football in inner city Atlanta. The kids say they want Cam Newton , Lamar Jackson , a Michael Vick at QB. I think that’s what’s to come next for them a la Justin Fields.
Hell id say this much , I might attend a few Falcons games this year should they pull it off.
They have the potential to be entertaining at the very least 🤷🏾♂️
