6. Dan Quinn isn’t saving his job

After a 1-7 start, most people assumed the Atlanta coach would be fired during or immediately after the season. But, then, the Falcons won two straight games impressively. The talk suddenly shifted that Atlanta would win the rest of its games, perhaps make the playoffs and keep Quinn safe. But forget all that because it’s not going to happen. The Falcons got blown out by the Bucs at home to fall to 3-8. There’s nothing Quinn can do now to convince owner Arthur Blank to keep him.
