The Atlanta Falcons lost their final two games amid questionable clock management moves from head coach Raheem Morris.

The Atlanta Falcons have hired former New York Jets defensive coordinator and interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich as their defensive coordinator, the team announced Saturday night. The Falcons interviewed seven candidates for the job, but Ulbrich always was considered the favorite because of his relationship with Falcons head coach Raheem Morris.

The Falcons have had four defensive coordinators in five seasons, along with a wealth of investment in that side of the ball through free agency, the draft, and trades, yet the unit is still among the worst in football.

Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich has been named the Falcons new defensive coordinator, returning to Atlanta where he coached as an assistant from 2015 to 2020.

The Falcons' quick hiring of Jeff Ulbrich as defensive coordinator has sparked frustration among fans, who see it as yet another example of the team's lack of forward-thinking moves.
