Falcons Fans Stunned: NFL Insider Drops SHOCKING Prediction About Raheem Morris’ Future That Could Change Everything!

The Atlanta Falcons' 2025 season, which began with considerable promise, has quickly spiraled downward. After a 3-2 start, the team has lost six of its last seven games, culminating in a heartbreaking 27-24 defeat to the New York Jets in Week 13. This latest loss has left the Falcons with a disappointing 4-8 record, and the pressure is mounting on head coach Raheem Morris.

The pattern of the Falcons' losses has been particularly troubling, characterized by critical mistakes, missed opportunities, and a recurring inability to close out games. Atlanta has now lost four consecutive matches, with an aggregate margin of just 13 points—two of those losses occurring in overtime. Once again, the Falcons found themselves unable to finish strong.

As Morris enters his second season as head coach, he holds a 12-17 record with the Falcons. When including his interim tenure in 2020, his overall record stands at 16-24, and he is 33-55 across all three seasons he spent with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While the Falcons are not yet mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, a significant turnaround over the final five games would be required, alongside a host of favorable outcomes from other teams.

Pressure Mounts for Morris

The real issue now is whether Morris can keep his job. Fans have not forgotten that the Falcons interviewed big names like Bill Belichick, Jim Harbaugh, and Ben Johnson before settling on Morris, and this has fueled dissatisfaction among the fanbase. However, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the situation may not be as dire as it appears. Fowler reported, “Would Falcons owner Arthur Blank be compelled to make a change after two disappointing seasons? What I have been told is that Blank respects Morris a lot, so I don’t expect a rash decision one way or the other.”

Despite the increasing calls for Blank to step down, he has historically shown patience with his head coaches, which may play a crucial role in Morris's fate. Fowler suggested that any in-season change would be unexpected, noting, “While there’s at least some smoke around this job, this feels far from finalized.” He added that the Falcons possess enough talent to turn things around in the coming weeks. If Morris is given a third season, changes to his staff or coordinators might be necessary, especially given the struggles in special teams and an offense that has regressed despite having playmakers.

The final stretch of the season presents both an opportunity and a risk for Morris. Salvaging the season will require significant effort, and while winning all five remaining games could propel Atlanta into playoff contention, such an outcome seems unlikely. Their upcoming opponents have a collective record of 30-30, with only the Arizona Cardinals and New Orleans Saints holding losing records. The Falcons will also face tough matchups against the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks, along with a road game against Tampa Bay, who previously defeated Atlanta in Week 1.

As it stands, an 8-9 finish might not be enough to secure Morris's job, but an extended losing streak would likely seal his fate. The upcoming games are critical, and only an unforeseen collapse could ensure his departure. As the Falcons continue down this turbulent path, the question looms large: How long can Morris navigate the storm before he faces the consequences of a faltering season?
