Top assistants won't be considered for head coaching position

Falcons defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer, who has been told by the team that he will not be considered for the head coaching job, has been granted permission to interview for the Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator job, a person with knowledge of the situation told the AJC.

Atlanta's offensive coordinator, Hue Jackson, also was told that he would not be considered for the head-coaching job, the person said.

All of the Falcons assistant coaches, except three that took college assistant coaching jobs

I would like for the team to completely rebuild, new coaches and everything.

i do like Zim, but i would also like it if they brought in somebody who would bring the 3-4 to the falcons.
