I'm personally not overly enthusiastic about this hire. What's intriguing is how many Falcons content creators appear to be actively attempting to persuade everyone, and perhaps even themselves, that this is a positive move.
It is what it is. Moaning about the hiring isnt changing anything. Honestly, it cant be any worse than last year. Ulbrich is a competent coordinator. The change after the bye was definitely Raheem getting involved. Lets use the offseason to add through draft, free agency and guys coming back from injury. Im hoping for the best. Good luck Jeff.
He's learned more about the position with the jets former head coach Robert Salah. Through dealing with a terribly ran football operations throughout history. Which we are not💪🏾. Good hire. I think he's ready to go 🏈
starting over in 2026. That simple. I'm so tired of hearing we have no talent. Coaching matters y'all. It's why they get paid too. We have enough talent on defense to be way better than bottom 5. Coaching matters. Maybe 2026 will be better. I'm here for the ride because I am a huge fan. I watch all these shows and I feel like I'm at a used car lot being talked into something that in my heart, I know is not a good idea. I'm not buying but I am pulling for you.
This coach originally with falcons was thrown in roll ,he has experience now and just left top 5 defense 3 yrs in a row ,how do you think we're not going to be better ,especially with the familiararity he has with the team an coach, there may be a better coach out there but i guarantee we're gonna be way better on d
Doug Pederson is out there. He’s a Super Bowl winner and took a terrible Jaguars team to the playoffs. 69-69-1 as a head coach. I mean I hope Morris doesn’t coach his way out of the playoffs again. If we don’t win the division this year……
It’s funny, we still have Raheem on the sidelines when Pete Carrol just got picked up by the Raiders. Pete Carrol, Robert Saleh for DC, just about anyone is better than what we have.
His first year as DC with the Jets his defense ranked last in the NFL. To his credit the following year they improved to be a 4th ranked defense. It’s as hard to sustain that level as it is to reach so the defense dropped to 12th in his 3rd year as DC. That’s not a huge drop off. If his history repeats itself the first year will be rough. But hiring him is what should be expected from the Falcons Coach Recycling and Rehabilitation Program. Plus it gives the Falcons brain trust a good scapegoat. They’re not likely to be able to be competitive in the free agent market for top defensive talent because the team ranks 28th in available cap space. The team will restructure contracts and cut some players they should probably keep in order to generate more cap space. In order to fill as many holes as they need to fill they still won’t have the money to sign the best. While I don’t necessarily believe that Ulbrich is the best choice the ones responsible for the mediocrity of this team is Rich McKay and Fontenot. All of the fans should be glad that they don’t manage their finances.
This is why i love tori shes the only person thats saying the same thing as me we need cb at 15th overall if we can secure good enough dbs (cb2,cb3,mlb) the pass rushers we have can get the job done..if we dont tj watt would’nt help us because theres always someone open running across the middle of the field
Don't even have to watch the video to know that Will would defend the move. The guy has never met a Falcon move he didn't like. Thank God for Tori for actually giving us her honest opinion instead of starting out trying to defend the decision and working backward. We all understand why the Falcons did what they did...we just don't think Ulbrich was the best candidate out there...he was the guy w/ the best relationship with Morris.
Will claiming the defensive results of Rah and Ulbrich being “not too bad” is laughable. 2020 d ranks Ypg 398 ranked 29 Ppg 25.9 ranked 18 Sacks 29 ranked 22 STOP LYING FOR THIS TEAM
Players make the plays. Not Coaches. Sacrificed Jimmy Lake to make up for other teams to walk down the field on us. Good players don't get disrespected like that.
Radio Raheem is gonna get himself fired this year anyway for being a trash head coach. We are gonna be hiring a new GM, a new HC & all new coordinators in 12 months regardless. 😂 And for the "Jeff had a Top 5 defense" crowd... is Ulbrich bringing the talent that Jets defense had with him? This franchise is such a joke. Tori Thickelhaney is the only good thing this organization has going for them. 🎂
Rusty take that negativity somewhere else bro, you comment bs too often. If you aren’t gonna apply for the job, support your team or switch sides. No, every move they make isn’t gonna sit well with us but what’s the point of bashing these guys like you aren’t gonna root for their success next upcoming season. Rise Tf Up bro. Players make plays. Coaches are here to put them in those playmaking positions. If Kirk didn’t fall off the map we would have been exactly where we wanted despite the poor defensive performance for most of the season.
@ which I definitely understand but not being excited and jus hating on the organization. I’m not 100 percent in on a lot of decisions but the decision has already been made so at this point it’s our job as fans to support and try to lift the team in positive ways. None of us have coached or played at the level. So how can we be so judgmental about things we have the least knowledge. Guys like Rusty just kill me because he’s acting like he wasn’t all behind the organization when Kirk was balling. The main 2 things that made the team suffer last year was the defense scheme and Quarterback play. Both of those seem to be getting put in better positions so why are we rooting against the team. We gotta use our heads. Like I said before, if you just gonna pray for everybody to lose their how are you better than other fans wanting us to lose. Because talking ish about the people that are in control of your destiny is just stupid to me. What makes you a fan?
You're worried about the defensive coordinator hire, and yet we have a coach who doesn't know basic time management !! Gtfooh 😂😂😂😅😅 If Blank sells the team, i won't be mad...just saying.
The fact that you had to put “Is Jeff Ulbrich the right pick for Defensive Coordinator?” Just shows what this franchise is. Failed, incompetent, and hopeless.
Is this new to you? Look what we did with Matt Ryan. He had 1 decent defense back in 2012. He was one of the greatest QB’s but was under appreciated cuz he wasn’t given a defense. Look what we’re doing with penix, idk if he’ll be as good as Ryan was. But he showed he can be a franchise QB unfortunately this team doesn’t do good for their franchise QB. They don’t give them a defense.
I'm personally not overly enthusiastic about this hire. What's intriguing is how many Falcons content creators appear to be actively attempting to persuade everyone, and perhaps even themselves, that this is a positive move.
They’re delusional
just wait
@@Brownishcows10Jeff knows what a top 10 def is
@ cannot wait for ANOTHER 8-9 or less season.
I respect the hell out of this podcast because it doesnt sugar coat things and addresses fans concerns despite being an offical falcons podcast.
They absolutely sugarcoat things.
Will McFadden is the chief sugarcoater. He’s been wrong on many occasions.
@@Brownishcows10why are you subscribed to the un?
I'm not sure I'm liking this hire but I was wrong about the penix pick, so hopefully I'm wrong again and he makes the defense not laughable
Were you right about Kirk cousins? Were you right about Jimmy lake?
We need to be looking at the Jets defensive roster we going to get some of those guys

That’s what I said. Rather have Ulbrich than Lake

U got 2 all pros in the secondary it shouldn’t be that hard to fix that. The focus needs to be on a consistent pass rush.
It either works out and we make the playoffs. Or the coaching staff and FO will be out. Win win for me lol
Making playoffs is way overdue. That isn’t the bar anymore.
Nah bro, we'll go 9-8, miss the playoffs, and Blank we'll keep the staff around for another year cause its still technically an improvement.
Troy will benefit huge, I think Ulbrich will love Eliss

Kinda crazy to praise a dude saying “Once xyz player left and had different coaching, he became an all pro” 😂
Its easier to run a scheme with talent
Move back to a 4 to 3 and try to have a Grady Jerry save my job..
Don't even have to watch the video to know that Will would defend the move. The guy has never met a Falcon move he didn't like.

Our run defense is puddin
Players make the plays. Not Coaches. Sacrificed Jimmy Lake to make up for other teams to walk down the field on us. Good players don't get disrespected like that.
So did the players change right after the bye when the scheme was tweeked and the defense began to play lights out???
Why are we bringing him back really out of all the other coordinators? Baffled 😕 5 steps forward 10 steps back…
Radio Raheem is gonna get himself fired this year anyway for being a trash head coach. We are gonna be hiring a new GM, a new HC & all new coordinators in 12 months regardless. 😂 And for the "Jeff had a Top 5 defense" crowd... is Ulbrich bringing the talent that Jets defense had with him?
