I still strongly feel that they go outside of the team for the next one.

It's of utmost importance to hire a new HC and make him have to hire a whole new coaching staff. Don't even hint that he can interview those that were here under Lewis. In fact, make it seem like he can't (don't say that he can't, but strongly imply that he needs to bring in all new guys). Give the new coach FULL control over who to hire with ZERO influence.

If they did this, it would make hiring Guenther a little bit more palatable (though I still would rather it be someone from outside the organization).

As far as I am thinking I believe the season is already over and the world knows they do not have a chance in hell to whip the packers at their joint.This season could be a 500 season or worse.The players will pack it in as soon as the weather gets bad knowing they no chance of the post-season and I could see the stoolers taking it all the way as bad as I hate to say it.I just hope the Falcons are in it again and finally get a ring.I am so so ticked off at this coaching staff and how they are ruining a lot of good players.The players are already losing respect for the staff and that is as bad as it gets.

Do those of you that do, do you not remember that he USED TO BE THE QB COACH in the 90s? Back when we had such luminaries at the positoin like Klingler and Akili. While he might not be the cause of the poor QB play during his time here, the fact remains he was on the coaching staff during one of the worst decades a pro sports franchise can have.

I don't hate the guy, but I don't want ANYONE from that era on this team.
