Rise up!
Not mad at us going younger and more athletic. Don't be mad at Worrilow, he's still gonna see the field a ton for us this yr

True I just want to see what the young guys can do because we already know what Paul and the others give us. They add much needed speed and explosiveness to a very lackluster LB corp. Worrilow is just too slow for my liking. He's one of those old school LBs that can't do anything but tackle.

Of course the ATL
Minus the injury to Neal, Arthur Blank got his wish.

''I want 3 starters out of this draft'' - AB

That mandate never made sense to me...a more effective mandate would've been "make the playoffs" or a demand to consistently field a championship level team. Not getting 3 starters on a mediocre defense...sometimes I just wonder how committed Blank is to building a world champion

Hes very committed

Early stages when AB bought the team (Vick era) AB would sleep with
the player as flowery branch. You have to remember up until the 2009
season the Falcons never had back to back winning seasons in franchise history.

Excluding the one season that coward coached the Falcons, AB has hit his
strike with the team, 5 straight winning seasons 4 of those 5 Falcons went to the playoffs
and a NFC Champ game birth

My biggest gripe with Arthur Blank is he has only brought in defensive minded coaches
with no prior HC experience for for the HC job. and **hes never given a black coach the job

**2004 Arthur passed up Lovie Smith for Jim Mora
