Dan Quinn happy with Atlanta Falcons' playcalling despite red zone woes

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons coach Dan Quinn said Friday that "yes," he was happy with the variety in offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian's red zone playcalling despite the team going 1-for-5 in the red zone during Thursday night's 18-12 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Falcons managed just nine points on those five red zone opportunities, with a 9-yard touchdown run by Tevin Coleman and a 21-yard field goal by Matt Bryant. Bryant missed the extra point on Coleman's red zone score.

"I was pleased with the variety in terms of calling plays, especially down in the red zone," Quinn said Friday after watching the tape.
