Will Steve Sarkisian improve, just like Kyle Shanahan?

I’m just going to say it. Steve Sarkisian isn’t going anywhere. It’s not what you want to hear, but it’s reality. After venting out your frustration, let’s accept that fact and ask ourselves an intriguing question. Can Sarkisian improve in his second season with the Atlanta Falcons, just like Kyle Shanahan did?

In 2015, Kyle Shanahan was brought in by coach Dan Quinn to be the offensive coordinator. In his first season, Shanahan quietly had success in the passing game, ranking sixth in the league. Where the Falcons struggled was the rushing attack, ranking 18th. They also managed to score just 21.
