Bowles/Quinn will be Falcons HC.
Someone will pull the trigger on Bowles because they'll get nervous waiting on Quinn.

Bowles set for Falcons interview #2 this week.
I really wanted Rex, but looks like this is probably our guy. I would also still take Del Rio, looks like he is going to the Raiders though.
Yeah, not thrilled by ATL getting Bowles. Think he'd be a great fit there
Atlanta is by far the best opening. Injuries have undone them the last couple of years. That and a lousy defense. I don't know who was more to blame for the thin roster, especially on D, as to whether it was Smith or Dimitroff. But bring in some help through FA and the draft, and they're immediately competitive in that division.
The only thing that jeebs me out about Bowles is that it has been reported that he wants current AZ QB coach Freddie Kitchens to be his OC.
Dimitroff did us no favors. 2 years ago we had a bottom 10 pass rush with Abraham getting 11 sacks a year. We let him go and did nothing in two subsequent seasons to replace him or otherwise bolster the pass rush. Except sign Osi, who has been just okay.
The front office is a mess right now. They have stripped dimitroff of all of his duties, and given them to Scott Pioli, the guy who drafted Tyson Jackson at like #5 overall, is now going to run our draft.
Bart Scott had me really pumped up with this article on Rex being a great fit in ATL.

Basically our offense is going to be a top 10 offense no matter who you bring in. Rex would have gotten the D to at least middle of the pack.

Bears set to interview Jerry Glanville.
If he brings Sam Wyche in as his OC, that could be a great combo!
How about Wyche as the Cleveland OC :
