Anyone else expect the Falcons to stink next year?

Lost game
Lost OC to be head coach
Fired DC
Hired guy that was drunk at USC as OC

Crazy week post Superbowl for them.

I have started listening to the book "How We Decide" by Leher and it was talking about When Brady and NE won their first super bowl and Brady's decision making. They were 14 point underdogs to another guy nobody was heralding when he came out of college Kurt warner. What seems like a lifetime later Brady and the Pats who were sort of the favorites because of their franchise history just pulled off one of the biggest comebacks of all time in sports. Nobody knew in that NE vs Rams Super Bowl that Brady would end up as the QB in history with the most Superbowls. That's just part of what makes sports great.

I wouldn't be completely shocked. One of the great things about the NFL is parity. You can also end up with some really good even great players that weren't top draft picks etc.
