Before the season, we made predictions about Atlanta’s final record in 2020. The highest prediction was 10-6 and the lowest prediction was 7-9, and technically both of those records are still possible, even if one seems extremely unlikely.
Now is a good time to re-visit those predictions and see if they need adjustment, because the Falcons did exactly what we all feared and once again came out of the gate limping. After the Falcons made the risky decision to keep Dan Quinn and Thomas Dimitroff around after a second consecutive 7-9 season that saw the team start 1-7, they went 0-5 to start this year and cleaned house.
