The season didn’t end the way we all thought it would when it began. But the one thing you can say for sure is the players didn’t quit on Dan Quinn. Before the game was played on Sunday Arthur Blank announced that Dan Quinn and Thomas Dimitroff would return in 2020. Then came the game on Sunday and it really looked like the team was going to lay an egg. Down by 6 in the fourth quarter they battled back to tie the game in the last seconds.Then Jameis Winston started the 30/30 club by throwing the game sealing pick six in over time to get Atlanta to 7-9 on the season. Now we are on to next season
