NFL Week 14, 2019: 5 Coaches on the hot seat
By Dan Parzych
2. Dan Quinn
A few weeks ago, the Atlanta Falcons seemed to finally be on the right track as a result of impressive wins over the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers before going on to lose their next two games.
Since Week 3, Dan Quinn has become quite comfortable being on the hot seat just about every week since this has turned into another wasted season for the Falcons with the talent they have to work with on both sides of the football.
It was one thing for Quinn and the Falcons to come up short of reaching the playoffs last season, but to do so for a second year in a row makes it seem like Atlanta needs to start fresh with someone new at head coach.
Similar to the situation with Garrett, a coach like Quinn can only be provided with so many opportunities to prove themselves worthy of a job before it’s time to realize that it’s time to part ways.
No one needs to explain the frustration this fan base is dealing with since the Falcons looked like a playoff contender following their Week 2 win over the Philadelphia Eagles, only to watch it all go downhill for the most part afterward.
If Quinn is let go a few weeks from now, no one would be surprised at all.
