Wow. I mean, its not like the defense collapsed and let Rex Grossman drive the field all night on them. Tom Brady is considered the best for a reason, and they held him in check well enough to reasonably expect that it would lead to a victory.
Also, Freaking Grady Jarrett is a only a second year player selected in the fifth round with no pass rush skills to speak of when he came into the league, and he tied a Super Bowl record for sacks. Their defensive line was all over Brady for three quarters. And you fire the guy who helped develop that?
This really seems like a case of misplaced blame, and is a very surprising turn of events. Say what you will about Blank, but he seems to be a decent guy and loyal to his people. Dan Quinn did too. I'm really curious what led to this, and who's decision it was to pull the trigger.
Dan Quinn mean business. Atl got a good coach in Quinn. He dont play favoritism like other coaches. Do your JOB.

Very dumb move if true. That defense is legit...and just needed two things.
1. To play four whole quarters, which could be solved easily in training camp, practices, extra gassers...surprise addition at the end of practices to make them mentally tough.
2. Instill a run game that eats up clock and helps them hold the ball more when they have a lead like they had against us and NE.
Blowing it up seems like an overreaction, and may come back to haunt them, unless Quinn is trying to bring some if his folks from Seattle in there. If that's the case, we better not roll-out the same nonsense we put on the field each year now...bc we won't be able to compete.

Does anyone think that Atlanta waited until after we hired our D-line coach before they released Cox?
BTW, am I mistaken or isn't Cox the one who knocked our T.E. in the head with a bag of coins back in the 90's( at our training camp) ?
Its Quinn's system so the names and faces in those positions can change. Its like Payton can get rid of Carmichael and all of the offensive assistance, and it won't matter because the system remains.
