The Atlanta Falcons defense isn't particularly popular. In fact, if you follow this team on a regular basis, then you've probably thrown an inanimate object or two at your living room television while watching members of the Falcons defense flounder on the field. It ain't easy watching them play. But we don't worry, because we have no choice but to watch the future looks bright.
Dan Quinn's arrival in Atlanta was supposed to pay immediate dividends. His brilliant defensive mind would translate into immediate results on the field. Or so Thomas Dimitroff promised us we hoped. In truth, it's been more of a process, and there's been growing pains.
