Arthur Blank Continues To Support Dan Quinn

Nov 23, 2018 9:46 AM

Arthur Blank said Dan Quinn is not the issue as the Atlanta Falcons dropped to 4-7 with their loss to the New Orleans Saints.

"Absolutely. We love our coach," Blank told ESPN. "Our coach is not the problem."

The Falcons have been inconsistent throughout this season, starting 1-4, winning three straight to even their record, then dropping the past three games. 

"It's a reason, but it's not an excuse," Blank said of the injuries. "That's what the coach would tell you. That's what the players would tell you. There have been some crippling injuries, but other guys have stepped up and played the best they can. Some cases, that's good enough. In some cases, not quite."
