Well, with 2018 already a fluttering memory of pain and agony in all of our collectives, the Atlanta Falcons are expected to make some changes to the coaching staff come January.
The most likely fellow to fall on the sword, so to speak, would be offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian. Sark had a strong first half of the season, but saw his number-hungry offense fade down the stretch.
The team would be more than justified to bring the former college coach back for another year, considering the blocking has been what primarily ails this offense. But then again, the team didn’t exactly play any great defenses when it was averaging 30 points a game.
