This time the joke’s on Jim Mora; Atlanta fires head coach
Atlanta fired coach Jim Mora, 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.
