The Atlanta Falcons are making big structural changes following their eighth consecutive losing season. While head coach Raheem Morris and general manager Terry Fontenot were both fired on Sunday night after the team's win over the New Orleans Saints, the organizational shakeup began behind closed doors months ago, according to a letter from team owner Arthur Blank.
In Blank's letter he revealed a number of changes to the front office and gave some insight into the upcoming coach and GM searches. Sportsology Group, an outside consulting firm which will assist in the GM search, has been doing a "deep, thorough and intentional health assessment" of the football operations for the last two months.
