Falcons fire Mora after disappointing 7-9 season
Associated Press


FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta fired coach Jim Mora on Monday, just two years after he led the Falcons to the NFC Championship Game.

The decision to dump the fiery coach followed two straight disappointing seasons. The Falcons lost six of their final eight games in 2005 to miss the playoffs, and they finished 7-9 this season by losing seven of the last nine contests.

Owner Arthur Blank made the announcement at the team's suburban training complex

Have to think him saying he would love to coach the Washington Huskies had a lot to do with this one.

I wish they would have fired him on the spot when he did that stupid interview.

Aurthur Blank, smart businessman, but out of his element, chose Mora Jr when better options were available, now choosing his Armless Running Back over his Head Coach..sh!t organization looking to stay the same course!
