Do you think that most of the Falcons players are hoping Raheem Morris comes back next year as Head Coach?

Or do you think that many Falcons players are hoping someone like Eric Biemeny comes in for a fresh start?

It matters not what the players want it’s about what Arthur Blank wants.It’s certainly looking likely he wants change across the board.

For Raheem Morris Jeff Ulbrich and co I see this as an audition for jobs else where is what  it’s looking and sounding like.

Beginning of the end for these guys I think.

[etherdome]

Yes.  No one really likes change.  Uncertainty

[Killing Floor]

Hard to guess.  It honestly looks like some of the leaders are bought in.  From the first half, the DQ games, you could tell at CAR and GB games the guys were hanging their heads and looked like the didn't give a crap from the opening kickoff.  Total 180 now.  Yeah, season is over early but the starters and the bench look like they have a lot more fire.  Do you give credit to Morris or just that DQ is out of the way?  Maybe it's different for each player.  

Morris has a better record than DQ but it's also fair to say we need more than a HC.  

I think quite a few players would be happy to have Morris stay.

If the players got to choose, Quinn  would be back.

Not so sure about that anymore. They sure as **** didn't play like they wanted him there at the beginning of the season.

Quinn, Raheem.....same same.  We need new leaders, that's why the old ones were fired.   Raheem is a band aid.

I think a lot of the players are more concerned whether they will be back next season...

I feel like it's both.

People don't seem to realize how much one person can influence the culture of a team. Yes, there are some x's and o's that need to be addressed, but the culture change people are clamoring for has already happened.

[Killing Floor]

What @JohnnyFranchise said.  Sharpen the tools in the off season.  Fill some gaps.  But I would have hated to be in that locker room a couple months ago.  They just looked miserable.  The Falcons players look like they can feel the trend up.  Go out with heads up, heal and work in the summer, come back with your teeth showing.  Rise Up!

[Spts1]

Morris? Morris? Most of those players are worried about whether THEY themselves will be  back...

[Herr Doktor]

In all honesty, that locker room has a poor environment from years of bro.  They need real coaching.  Raheem is a place holder and nothing more.  Blank is far too loyal IMHO and will give all the coaches a chance to make their case.  It literally is all based on who the GM is and how much power he will have.  My guess is that our front office is poison right now and we will end up taking a major boom or bust type candidate.  

[OrthoPTSD]

Imagine locker room knows this is a flawed team, looks around and knows that big changes are coming, staff and player wise.

If anything they see a dead man walking.

Boom.  Definitely.  This season was over week 4.

If Heem wins three of the last four I’d definitely hire him. If not? State Line.

No way, he has been infected by Quinn.

True... didn't we go thru this last year also time for a change.

[marvinthemartian]

Whether or not they stay here, I think both Morris and Ulbrich have acquitted themselves well enough here that they will both land on their feet.

I can't think of any other head coaching candidate that I know for sure would be better than Raheem.

[FalconFanSince1970]

Heem's gotta win 3 of 4 for me. We shall soon see.

[Exp]

Raheem is probably the player's pick, but we may need a new HC to shake things up; someone with little to no loyalty to the existing staff and players. 

I would be okay with Raheem next season, though, so long as DK is gone.

Think a lot of guys would like to coast. They could stand to be a little uncomfortable imho

I think that most if not all of the offensive players want a new OC even with the growing pains.

Yup, the defensive players prolly do too! Those constant 3 and outs are a killer on the defense.

[octoslash]

Obviously yet another impossible-to-answer question, but I can imagine half the players want Morris to stay, a quarter of them want him gone, and a quarter of them don't care either way.  

It's a good thing they don't make the decision because Morris and everyone else from this era needs to be dismissed.  

I would hope the players want the same thing as the ownership and fans...someone who can get them to the Super Bowl.   And that ain't Raheem Morris.  He's a .500 guy at best.
