- Despite interviewing Bill Belichick twice, the Atlanta Falcons hired Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris as their new head coach. Morris was previously with the team as interim head coach in 2020 after firing Dan Quinn midway through the season. Colin Cowherd explains why the Falcons hiring Morris over Belichick was an "easy choice," then further breaks down whether the former New England Patriots head coach will not be on the sidelines this upcoming season. Meanwhile, the Baltimore Ravens are set to host their first AFC Championship Game in franchise history against the Kansas City Chiefs. Colin explains what an AFC Title would mean for Lamar Jackson's legacy.

“Bill’s door is like your teenage son’s: it’s closed more than you’d prefer” - Cowherd, Colin
Not just bill even the Bills too 😂
That’s good haha
That teenage son line was classic😂
That was crazy 😂😂
It was having Matt Patricia as the OC that will forever stick with Belichick. That's his narrative now.
Yea that move was just putrid
I love Colin. He says everything with enormous confidence lol
Even when he's wrong 😂
Honestly, if Belichick would've shown just a small bit of charm sometime in the past 20 years, he might have improved his job opportunities today.
I’ll hire belichek to run my Palworld base
Everyone is missing this. RM was hired because he is bringing a hotshot OC with him. Do you not think that was discussed? Worked well for the Texans and Lions. It’s a copycat league unless you have a Mahomes or Jackson. BB absolutely wrecked the Pats roster. No one wants to give him total power over the roster for him to retire in 3 years. ATL would have hired BB in a minute despite his quirks if he would just coach.
The Falcons can get used to picking 8th overall. It's not even about passing on Belichick. It's about firing your coach for, at best, a lateral move.
You just don't know though, and no one does. I hate how people judge head coaching hirings the day they sign the contract. This comment three years from now will either be incredibly accurate or completely off and no one actually knows until that point. I bet not many people saw Demeco Ryans as a huge upgrade for the Texans and look where they are now. There's no way of telling the future with coaches
@@jpm.06actually, a lot of people liked the Ryans hire. But I get what you mean. It’s unfair to prematurely believe this is going to fail for Atlanta.
LOL! Yes, after all the Patriots were so great over the last 3 years under Belichick.
@@HTHAMMACK1they had a terrible quarterback…
You right…I like this coaching move but you should’ve just kept smith and got him a QB
Former Patriot Says the Team Worked for Belichick But Played for Tom Brady
It’s “comes down too” a falcons team making a dumb decision like they usually do lol
no
@@DeosPraetorian oh you’re right I didn’t consider that possibility
Agree
“I’m an Andy Reid groupie” is wild 💀
Cheesesteaks and Pulled Pork BBQ!
Belicheck aside Raheem is a weird hire. As Colin likes to point out he’s a defensive coach so that’s behind the 8 ball to begin with. His defenses with the rams were average & his defenses with the falcons were downright terrible. And his win loss record as a HC is 21-38. The falcons arguably should’ve hired vrabel over both bill and Raheem
Great point. I'm a rams fan and I was very disappointed at a lot of calls on defense all year and especially in the playoffs. I know we don't have the best personnel on defense but I didn't think Raheem was anything special.
There are points that cancel the theory that says... sure, Morris is primarily a defensive coach but who's worked on the offensive side of the ball (in Atl with Shanahan) working under Mike & Kyle (WSH/ATL) then McVay (WSH/LA). I'm not a Rams fan to question that squad & results but constantly signing older players to compete for a title is how I see that and was able to raise the level of later round talent (esp this year).
Really, 17 - 31 for a BAD Tampa team who he took over post Gruden at 33-35yo.. Who in comparison (he) held the only double digit winning season until Arians & Brady linked up. Also after that 10 win season the Glazer family taking that team apart didn't help. His 4 wins in Atl post the DQ firing at 0-5 to start... It was about the shift in the play vs the record of that team.
As a Falcons fan I wanted Harbaugh (who wouldn't) and Vrabel was in my top 3 but I assume it might of been too close to Arthur Smith and Morris was kinda a sweet spot of the 3 choices who had things that Atlanta wanted.
@@phenoms10Atlanta wanted a coach with a losing record?
@@deanalbertson7203 that's a childish/lazy way to look at it.. [for the sake of example]
Look at Belichick before New England
Look at Carroll before New England
Look at Mike Shanahan before Denver
You tell me what your point was?
@@phenoms10 Childish is when somebody doesn't hire Bill Belichick because he's a loser on a power trip.
Nah man, this hire just sends the message the Falcons are not planning to be contenders any time soon, if they were, they would have hired Belichieck because he’s got his time running. With Morris is, let’s see what happens in the next 2-3 years and maybe if he’s good at and we put a decent roster, then maybe we can be contenders in the playoffs, not even a SB run
You need to build up a qb, that has shown that they may not be bills strong suit
As a die hard Falcons Fan, Im soo glad we didn't get Belichick. We literally dodged a bullet. Now,our 1st priority needs to be a franchise Quarterback.
Dodged a bullet lol ok 28-3
The guy was the head coach for the longest standing dynasty in NFL history.
Dodged a bullet? You have zero championships, enjoy more misery
Tom retired Bill! Isn't interesting Bill's last four years look like his years in Cleveland? He left both teams in shambles 🙄
Congratulations Mr.Morris! 💐💐
The vibe? Them rings got their own way of giving off vibes…got one off the falcons while he was at it lol
More surprised Vrabel still doesn’t have a HC job
I'm not, he not seen as a very innovate coach. Many these coach have been lapped by Kyle Shanahan and his disciples. Also, Vrabels offensive coordinator when to become Head Coach at Atlanta and you saw his record. The old school coaches are getting lapped in win column.
@@mandarinandthetenrings2201 sure he’ll need a modern OC but as a coach and a leader he was widely regarded as a top coach in the league by the media and players. He just got on the GM’s bad side. It’s not like Tennessee had much of a chance this year regardless, but when healthy, the past few years they have impressively over preformed under Vrabel.
@@calebford6318 No Caleb, he won because he cheated. That how he got all those rings. Andy Reid should had one those Super Bowls rings as Eagle.
@@calebford6318 No it is surprising that he got away with for so long. That's why Belichick's coaches can't win s**t! But when Kyle Shanahan's coaches go out they start winning like crazy you see who is the real NFL coach.
@@calebford6318 Just remember Mike McDaniel who is a Shanahan disciple, is only in his second year as a head coach and he lead the league in passing that insane!!!! But when Josh McDaniel who is a Belichick disciple becomes a head coach he is exposed for a fraud. Josh can't even coach a single season as a head coach with without getting fired.
Bring the old outro back please
In the end, it turned out that neither Brady nor Bill were some kind of magicians. Brady couldn't win his last game with them. Last game as patriot, he throws a pick six with his team down by 1. And with Bucs he couldn't put up more then 13 points vs the rams. As for Bill, last few seasons proved he's not superhero either, his rebuilding and drafting was not that successful, the team went down under his watch, he has to take his part of the blame as well.
Still, I believe no team can stay on top for few decades, Pats would go down sooner or later, with or without Bill and Brady.
Didn’t Julian Eldeman disprove this notion last week on your show. 😂😂
As an owner, would I really want to hire a coach my opponents want me to hire? Doesn’t it mean they aren’t concerned about playing against him because they know him so well?
What the heck happened to Eric Beinemy he only helped create the best quarterback in the league and Andy Reid endorsed him didn't this Morris guy already fail as a head coach??? Crazy
he failed in a terrible situation
The ironic thing is if Belichick hadn't run Brady out of New England he'd have gotten enough wins to pass Shula by now. So his need to prove the success was about him probably cost him the record he desperately wanted and now will likely never have. You deserve that Bill.
I have no idea why anyone would be excited to have a Bill Belichick as their coach at this point. Giving him the job he’s handing him the keys to the franchise, he’s not going to listen to some fortysomething year old GM in terms of personnel, player directions, contracts, the draft, etc. He was given the keys to the castle New England, and showed he could not win with it, nor listen to anybody that wasn’t him. Give someone else an opportunity who will be collaborative.
Shown he could not win with it? He has 6 super bowls and built countless top 5 and top 10 defences, as well as insanely good OLs for many years.
@@ryantaylor5297 not without Brady*. I will give him the credit for building the offensive lines and great defenses, he has a great feel for those two things. But since the 2016 Super Bowl, he has had more and more personal say, and he has not done well with it especially after Brady left. Particularly on the Officer) side of the ball, most of his good qualities, I would argue, scream that he would be a great defensive coordinator. But to be a head coach you have to have a feel for the direction the league is moving. And he shown he is out of touch.
He was in a rebuild year where something like 60% of his starting roster was not playing (right after Brady left). What you're saying is just objectively not true once you add any bit of context. Best coach in history. Shut down the Rams to 3 points. But yeah he "can't win" and is "out of touch". @@romain8390
I don't understand why Belichick feels like he has something left to prove. He had a historic run with Brady. Should have quit after that.
Why did they hire a defensive guy. I thought that the new thing was hiring an offensive guy as head coach now?
If you want a coach that can get along with people and be mediocre, they've hired the right guy.
as opposed to a coach who hires his own unqualified sons and be mediocre?
neither is a great choice
It’s clear and obvious how much Colin hates Bill 😂
Bill - "Not a lot of thin around here the last 25 years"
Complacency is a cousin of laziness
Give new guys a chance
Bill has only 1 winning season since Brady left but never won the division (2nd, 2 thirds and a forth)and were massacred by the Bills in the wildcard game. For his system to work he needs a top 5 QB/offensive coach combo that are strong enough to stand their ground with him. Without that it doesn't work.
Probably belichick wanted have everything in his control. But I think the owner knows that what happen in New England won't work here. Cause he needs a elite QB and that's not going to happen with belichick drafts.
Great ones win super bowls we will see
You know the media can’t stand Bill so they bout to go in on em for weeks lol
Falcons could’ve possibly had Lamar and Bill right now but….
Untrue but sure.. lol
Bill Belichick at age 71 yrs most likely doesn't have the time to coach a bad team and build them into a contender. If he were younger, it might work out because it can take 5 yrs to build up a team. Bill doesn't have 5 yrs to give. He really should retire.
Lamar is the new Dak. Overhyped, looks good in the easy meaningless games. Chokes when the pressure is on.
Can't wait to see Taylor Swift score that touchdown for Kansas City 😂😂
Those people saying that Bill is going to Washington need to shut up. The first thing they did was hire a gm. Which was a clear sigh that they weren’t dumb enough to hire him.
Colin hates bill so much and i just can't figure out why
Colin is old. He should retire like Bill. 😂
Yeah just the first 2 minutes of this video is some of the most presumptive, bias garbage I’ve ever heard
he's not wrong. I'll defend Belichick to the end, but it's been downhill since the SB win vs the Rams - and that was a defensive clinic, to his credit.
There's a certain institutional arrogance with Belichick.
Because Bill is grumpy with the media, they've been waiting for this day for 2 decades to lash out
Its not hate people are just not used to a prominent media head speaking negative about bill belly. I respect that
I can see Bill winning another Super Bowl.
If Ravens shut down Patrick/Andy..Macdonald .# 1 to DC not even close!!!
Cowherd trying to defend this hire. LOL
Cannot wait for tomorrow. It is Lamars day, it’s the Ravens day.
😬
Well Tom basically got BA fired so does Brady get along with everyone?
He put up with that old rag for a year 😂
Yeah, I don’t like lazy humans can’t be too casual all the way through life show some intensity, show some passion show that you care C’mon where is the energy⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️ at?
So why didn’t the Falcons revisit other past Falcon coaches Mike White or Dan Quinn?
Bill doesn’t need anybody to call on his behalf. And what have The Falcons done recently to warrant not wanting to change the way they do things? This is a ridiculous move and Colin can talk about all the vibe and likability nonsense all he wants
Matt definitely in the parking lot
Lol 😂Mahomes all day until it's not
I just want a lions ravens Super Bowl
The people you’re talking about Colin are called fans.. players are not fans- are you a fan of your show?
What is his coaching record without Brqdy?? Could be the owners don't want to spend their money on a lifetime loser????
What does Bill Belichick project, grumpy old man! He needs to get back on his yacht and go fishing!
Bill is F'd
Raheem Morris bombed out once as a head coach already. The Falcons will remain stuck in mediocrity for the foreseeable future.
Well I guess I’m a soulless Bears fan, fair enough.
so you hire the “yes man” …
Uncle Collin sounds forced. It doesn’t really fit.
Young coaches in McVay tree is not that successful! So don’t crown this is a good hired just yet
Michael Jordan would hold grudges forever. If you didnt shake hands with MJ at a dinner, he would remember it 3 years later when he played you. If a friend of mine still thought about a guy who didnt shake his hand 3 years ago i'd probably tell him to see a therapist. If MJ had a therapist he would never have been MJ.
Count chocolate
Bill Belichick the GM got Bill Belichick the Head Coach fired. Everybody should want to hire Bill Belichick the HC, nobody should want to hire Bill Belichick the GM. If he wanted total personnel control, then it was an easy "no". Think about it; which Belichick would you be getting if you hired him? The 6 ring winner, or the 4-13 HC from last year? The most dominant coach ever or the one from the last 5 seasons without a playoff win? Knowing that he doesn't come with Tom Brady as a package deal. Knowing that you don't have a serviceable QB on your roster, do you trust Bill Belichick to find an offensive rhythm for your team? To develop the QB? And how long would he stick around? He's 71. It's not as easy a hire as people want to pretend it is.
Raheem Morris is not a good head coach 24-38. Does he deserve another chance of course. But hes not a HC material.
You're not my uncle
Retire already Bill
Bet against the falcons and laugh all the way to the bank
The falcons should have hired bill they never won the Super Bowl who cares about the vibes or attitude that’s why Atlanta will always be losers because they are allergic to greatness bill belichick is greatness he could have gave the falcons a Super Bowl
bill is no longer great tho
@@DeosPraetorianwhen it comes to bill age I agree he got maybe another 5 years in him but to say that he is no longer great is just foolish experience just doesn’t go away I can make an argument bill can coach for another 10 years after 10 years he will be 80 he can retire by then
First time I’ve agreed with Colin in a long time. It was definitely about control and vibe. For better or for worse, Atlanta is a “vibe” city. I’m liking the hire more and more.
God bless Lamar
Granted. He has a ton of talent but he’s been so-so to bad in the playoffs. He’s one of those good regular szn QB’s but he just is not able to transition that against better teams in the playoffs.
This is why they are the Atlanta Falcons... even when they have a chance to get it right, they always get it wrong.
What a clown show franchise.
but they did get it right
lol@@DeosPraetorian
Lol I get that Bill want d too much, but Morris is a fail. Falcons will be hiring another HC in two years lol Ls
Hire me.… very hungry and passionate
I guarantee you Lamar will sleep and eat even if he loses Sunday.
Impossible to take Colin seriously anymore. Before Tom left, Colin was calling Bill a god and going on and on about how just like he watches LeBron, he roots for dynasties and appreciates greatness. First two minutes and he’s killing Bill’s career lmao. I get he’s the hot take guy, but if you flip flop on everything, then you’re just desperate for attention and you don’t have any real opinions other than whatever you can think to say that makes your bank account bigger. And power to him, but if that’s your play don’t be surprised if you get zero credibility. It’s like a guy that has 15 favorite teams in the NFL and one of them wins the Super Bowl and he goes crazy to his friends and social media. Nobody is taking that seriously 😂
I don't care
Colin can you please consider replacing JMac with John Middlekauf. I used to be a JMac fan but lately he is obnoxious and gives absurd takes (constant obsession with Brock Purdy, coming for Cam Newton) his comments on the air are out of pocket And sometimes offensive. When you take days off and he fills in for you the show is literally unwatchable. He has no chemistry with Alex Curry you can tell Alex can’t stand him either. Nobody cares about his twitter beef with Cam Newton. The guy should not be on TV. He reminds me of Tony Romo. John is way more professional, respectful, and intelligent. Hes knowledgeable about what he does and you two have amazing chemistry. Im sure JMac is a good guy and a hard worker but good lord he’s hard to listen to. Just my 2 cents
Order of magnitude arrogance. 😂
No one wants Bill.
Broadcasters are unreal. How about Bill chose not to take the job. 🤔
You do NOT go to TWO job interviews if your "not" interested or want the job.😉
@David-dl3vj Maybe they could not come to a mutual agreement. Alot of reasons but not qualified definitely not one of them.
He is talking about Bill like he hasn't accomplished anything. This guy a joke.
Boomers time is over
Raheem is straight garbage as a HC though
Is there a chance Bill might not coach in 2024?
Don't use the word "vibe", you're too old.
Belichick: greatest accolades of any coach in NFL history.
Morris: he's Black
Easy decision.
Why didn't other teams even bother interviewing Belichick?
Belichick is an old white man. You have to be Black or a young white offensive coordinator to get a job now. @@Tres_Nueve
DEI hire
Every like I’ll do a push up
Falcons gonna Falcon. What a laughably bad hire.
