Falcons somehow managed to dodge a Bill Belichick-sized nightmare

Almost two years ago, Bill Belichick came eerily close to becoming the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, but ultimately lost out to Raheem Morris. After a year-long hiatus from coaching, the the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach is currently serving as the lead man at North Carolina, which has resulted in unfathomable disaster.

Belichick is regarded as possibly the greatest coach in NFL history, yet his success hasn't carried over to the college ranks. Through five games with the legendary Browns and Patriots coach at the helm, the Tar Heels are sitting at 2-3, but his time in Chapel Hill could be coming to an abrupt end.
