I will GLADLY eat my crow if I'm wrong, but there is nothing on my Atlanta Falcons fan card that says I have to like who the Falcons hire at offensive coordinator.

I honestly don't think you'd say anything different if we hired the guy who played the coach from Friday Night Lights. His resume does not give anyone any confidence. I;m sorry, I'm usually a good soldier, but I despise this hire, and I'm not going to shut up.

Resumes are overrated. Would you hire this guy?
