Falcons coach Dan Quinn not over Super Bowl collapse

INDIANAPOLIS -- The sting of the Atlanta Falcons' epic collapse in a Super Bowl defeat to the New England Patriots has hardly subsided.

For coach Dan Quinn, it's something he'll never forget or entirely get over. And how could he and the Falcons' players after squandering a 28-3 lead and running out of gas amidst numerous strategic blunders in an unprecedented 34-28 overtime loss at NRG Stadium.

Yes, Quinn has watched Super Bowl 51 numerous times. "I have a lot," he said. No, he's not necessarily going to be haunted by the crushing defeat forever.

"I am past it, I am not over it," Quinn said Wednesday at the NFL scouting combine.
