Falcons hire Kyle Shanahan

WalterWhite

Boo that man. Enjoy Matty Ice ya phony.

Falcons are hiring Kyle Shanahan as their OC, per league source. Shanahan and Dan Quinn planned to be package deal.

The Gipper

Well, he had "mobile" QBs with Wash. in RGIII......and he had Hoyer and JMZ here.

How about this question: Why was Shanahan not able to ever get Brian Hoyer out of his late season funk after Hoyer being so good to begin with?

Was it all Hoyer.....or all the loss of Kevin Mack.....and why could not the coach adjust to the loss of Mack?

He will now have a pure pocket passer......can he adapt to that style?

Westside Steve

He did adjust to the loss of Mack. Kinda. McDonald took a couple games to get used to the position and he was out. Seymour was working at Burger King or something. If I'm not mistaken. And Brian Hoyer wasn't particularly great ever. He didn't shit his pants when we had a hell of a running game. He was still unable to perform at an NFL level against the Colts when the defense gave him everything they could. None of that makes any difference. The quarterback matters, yes, but it's not everything. Fuck Shanahan and fuck the Falcons.

Kevin Mack?

ATL had a window to talk to Quinn last night? Must have him locked up and his blessing if Shanny's announced already.

Poor inglorious bastards. Best of luck Falcons, you're gonna need it.

Kyle will definitely not have anyone texting him during games in Atlanta.

Those bootlegs with Matty Ice are going to be fun to watch.

I think Shanahan is a smart guy and he'll figure something out. The Falcons have a horrible D though and not sure how that will improve.

LOL.. Ryan will get killed in the Pistol sets..

Falcons don't even have a HC yet, but Shanny ran away there...interesting.

mangini promoted to DC in niner land. one step closer to being a HC again.

I'll wager Atlanta wins division and Matt ice has career year.

miktoxic

i'll take that bet.

six pack says atlanta sucks again. ryan is good but no way shanahan makes that much of a difference. getting some defensive talent might though.

And I'll wager that shanny finds a way to run a play that gets another QB hurt. He's better at that than anything else other than mirror watching.

And JM will text him during a game telling him that it's nice to have a QB friendly OC for a change that doesn't hang him out to dry on an unsupported QB sweep around left end.

Good to see... SF's new HC looks passionate; good contrast with Mangini.

HA!

maybe mangini is passionate in a way that he doesn't show.

note: bill belichick. his mentor. that coaching tree really sucks, from parcells down.

I've no doubt that a fire burns inside Mangini, but it is hard to see...

I'm going to start a pool on how long your trolling bitch ass will be around. Will it be over or under the longevity of Stockton ShittyShorts?

Mangina has an ego bigger than Lake Erie.. He's a control freak and a douche nozzle on top.. He does nothing but alienate people around him..
