Five things that are on our Atlanta Falcons Christmas Wish List

The Atlanta Falcons have had quite the 2020 to forget as they currently sit at just 4-10 overall heading into the last couple of games of the season.

The Falcons fired head coach Dan Quinn and GM Thomas Dimitroff after a putrid 0-5 start to the season and, honestly, things haven’t gotten much better.

As we head into Christmas, here’s a look at five things that should be on every Atlanta Falcons’ wish list for the franchise moving forward.

5. The right GM & Head Coaching hires

If you want to be a successful franchise, it all starts with your front office and your head coach.

The Falcons made the decision to fire Quinn and Dimitroff because they weren’t getting the job done and now it’s time for them to make a big-time hire in both positions.

There have been rumors of interest in a name like Eric Bieniemy for the head coaching position and there have been several candidates thrown around for the GM.

No matter who you think should take those two spots, one thing is for certain: They have to be filled by winning names. It’s no longer good enough to sit in mediocrity. The new GM and Head Coach need to have a winning mentality and bring a breath of fresh air to this organization.
