In addition to that, the likes of Todd Gurley, WR Julio Jones, and QB Matt Ryan have all been impressive over the last couple of weeks.
Morris has been in Atlanta since 2015. He started his tenure with the Falcons as an Assistant Head Coach and defensive backs coach. He started the 2020 NFL season as a defensive coordinator before his promotion. He could be in line for a permanent role if the Falcons continue to play like this over the next 6 weeks.

The impressive rise of NFC South franchise Atlanta Falcons was the topic of debate on the latest segment of GMFB. Co-host Peter Schrager heaped praise on interim Head Coach Raheem Morris, who has been decisive for the Falcons over the last 3 weeks.
He said, “2020 has been a crazy year for the country, for the world, and for the Atlanta Falcons. They lost games in, like, historic fashion to start the season. Well, guess what they have now won three of their last four games.
“They’re playing really good football and they are a fun team to watch again. I believe Raheem Morris should be the Falcons coach of the future….this team turned things around.

“They’re playing hard for Raheem Morris. And personally, I think Raheem Morris should be the head coach. There’s a lot of reasons, one, he’s got experience.
“Two, he was too young maybe to be the Buccaneers head coach when he had that shot. Now he’s matured and done things with other franchises Washington, now Atlanta has been offensive coach, defensive coach,” Schrager said on the show.
The Falcons are on bye week right now. On their return, they will go up against reigning NFC South champions New Orleans Saints in Week 11. A win against the Saints can spur a last-gasp comeback for the Falcons in the latter half of the season.
