One small Arthur Blank decision could have damning ramifications for Falcons' future

Longtime Atlanta Falcons' owner Arthur Blank has received his fair share of flack for the team's lack of success over the years, but not all of it is warranted. He's one of the more beloved owners in the game by the players, and it appears like he's ready to make genuine changes to the organization.

As he evaluates the futures of Raheem Morris and Terry Fontenot in Atlanta, the 83-year-old is taking a long look in the mirror. Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer reported that Blank has brought in the consulting firm Sportology to conduct an overall health check on the Falcons' football operations.
