Breaking news! See what Kirk Cousins said about Raheem Morris! ATLANTA FALCONS NEWS
[music] All right, buckle up, football fanatics. This is your Atlanta Falcons reporter, bringing you the kind of hard-hitting, exclusive insight you won't find anywhere else. We're diving deep into the heart of the Falcons tumultuous 2025 season. A campaign that has left many scratching their heads and demanding answers. Has the spirit of this Atlanta Falcons team truly been broken? Or is there a quiet defiance brewing beneath the surface? A resilience that the outside world simply refuses to acknowledge? That's the burning question on every Falcons fan's mind as we dissect a season that has been by all accounts a profound disappointment. The whispers are growing louder, turning into a roar in some corners, suggesting that head coach Raheem Morris, after just his second full season at the helm, might be on the chopping block. It's a brutal reality in the cutthroat world of professional football, where patience is a luxury rarely afforded, and results are the only currency that truly matters. [music] The win- loss column tells a stark story, one that doesn't paint a pretty picture for the current regime. Yet amidst [music] this storm of external criticism and mounting pressure, there's a fascinating counternarrative emerging from within the very walls of the Falcons locker room. It's a narrative that speaks volumes about the character of the squad and perhaps the true measure of their leadership. The prevailing wisdom in the NFL, a metric often whispered among general managers and owners when contemplating a coaching change, is the unwavering support of the locker room. Does the coach still have the players? Are they still fighting for him? If the answer to those questions is a resounding yes, it often buys a coach precious time, a lifeline in an otherwise unforgiving environment. And here, my friends, is where our story takes an intriguing turn. Despite the dismal record, despite the external clamor for change, it appears Raheem Morris has not in fact lost the support of his players. This isn't just speculation. It's a sentiment that resonated powerfully after the Falcons thrilling come from behind 29 to28 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday night. That game, a nailbiter that saw the Falcons snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, was more than just a win. It was a visceral, undeniable demonstration that this team under Morris's guidance is still playing with an undeniable grit. A fight that refuses to be extinguished. It was a performance that screamed defiance in the face of adversity. A testament to a bond that perhaps runs deeper than the surface level statistics suggest. The very next day, our veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins, a man whose words carry immense weight in that locker room, stepped forward to offer his perspective, expressing a profound confidence in his teammates and by extension the current coaching staff. This wasn't a forced endorsement. It felt like a genuine reflection of the pulse of the team. Did you hear that? The collective sigh of relief or perhaps the frustrated groan depending on your stance as Kirk Cousins addressed the swirling vortex of external criticism surrounding the Falcons coaching [music] staff and specifically Raheem Morris. I know the guys on my team, the way they work, their attitude, and the love they have for football. Cousins shared in an exclusive interview with Asai. His words painted a vivid picture of a locker room united, a group of professionals who, despite the setbacks, never allowed their passion to Wayne. He continued, "It just wasn't a concern of mine going to work every week after a tough loss. I felt like our group was resilient and professional. This isn't the language of a team on the verge of collapse. It's the language of a team that believes in its core, in its collective ability to overcome. Cousins focus, he explained, was squarely on that internal trust. That's what I really focus my efforts [music] on. Just trusting the guys around me a great deal. It's a powerful [music] statement, one that speaks to the camaraderie and belief that still permeates the Falcons facility, even as the outside world calls for heads to roll. But Cousins didn't stop there. He delved into the frustrating reality of their season, a campaign marred by agonizingly close defeats. "It was more a matter of finding those inches, which are hard to find in football," he lamented. "We lost a lot of games by just a touchdown difference. We need to find those inches to win those one-score games, which we were able to do on Thursday night." This is the essence of professional football, isn't it? The razor thin margins, the critical plays that swing momentum, the inches that separate [music] victory from defeat. The Buccaneers game then wasn't just a win. It was a validation of their internal belief, a tangible example of finding those elusive inches when it mattered most. It was a moment where their resilience paid off, where their collective effort pushed them over the finish line. It's a testament to the fact that even in a disappointing season, the competitive fire still burns fiercely within this squad. Cousin's words, while not a direct explicit endorsement of Morris by name, certainly painted a picture of a team that hasn't quit on its leadership. A team that still believes in its process, even if the results haven't consistently followed. The nuance here is critical. He didn't defend Morris by name, but he defended the spirit and professionalism of the team under the current staff, which in itself is a powerful form of support. Now, let's peel back another layer of this fascinating narrative. When pressed repeatedly about the external criticisms leveled at the Falcons coaching staff, particularly Raheem Morris, Kirk Cousins responses were overwhelmingly positive. Yet, and this is a crucial detail, there was a notable absence of any specific mention of the head coach himself. It's a masterclass in professional diplomacy, a quarterback navigating a minefield of public opinion with the precision of a seasoned veteran. There's a lot you can control in professional football and a lot you can't. Cousins articulated his voice steady and measured. You learn pretty early in your career that you've got to focus on what you can control and not what you can't. This isn't just a philosophical musing. [music] It's a pragmatic approach to a high pressure situation, a clear delineation between what falls within the team's purview and what lies beyond their influence. The message is clear. The noise from the outside, the speculation, the calls for change, these are all external factors beyond their control. Cousins then expertly pivoted, bringing the focus back to the immediate task at hand. We've got three games left. That's what we need to focus on. [music] And then after that, there's a lot of things we can't control, and we'll see how they play out. This is the quintessential one game at a time mentality, amplified by the looming uncertainty of a coaching staff's future. It's a powerful reminder that while the fans and media can dissect and debate, the players themselves must remain laser focused on their performance, [music] on the tangible actions they can take on the field. Certainly, what's in our control is how we play these next three weeks and how we prepare. He continued, I think that's not only what I need to focus on, but our entire locker room. And hopefully that's the case. We hope to play highle football down the stretch. This isn't just a call to action. It's a plea for collective focus, a rallying cry for the team to finish strong, regardless of the external noise or the ultimate decisions that will be made in the off season. It's not Cousin's obligation to defend Morris, and he didn't explicitly do so. However, by consistently offering praise for the team's resilience and professionalism under the current staff, he subtly yet powerfully [music] reinforced the idea that the internal belief remains intact. He chose to highlight the players dedication and the team's fight rather than directly engaging with the criticisms of the head coach. Now, I want to hear from you, the passionate fans who live and breathe Falcons football. Given Kirk Cousins's nuanced comments, his focus on the team's resilience, and the inches they need to find, do you interpret this as a quiet vote of confidence for Raheem Morris, or simply a veteran quarterback expertly sidest stepping a difficult question? What do you make of his decision to emphasize the team's internal focus rather than directly defending the coaching staff? Drop your thoughts in the comments below. Let's get this discussion going. Do you agree with his approach or do you wish he had been more direct? Let's be brutally honest for a moment because that's what we do here. While the locker room sentiment and Kirk Cousins measured words offer a glimmer of hope, the cold hard facts of Raheem Morris's coaching record present a stark and undeniable challenge. In his two full seasons as the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, Morris has accumulated a disheartening 13 wins against 18 losses. That's a record that simply doesn't inspire confidence, especially for a franchise desperate to return to contention. And it's not [music] just his current tenure in Atlanta that raises eyebrows. Cast your mind back to 2020 when Morris stepped in as the interim head coach for the Falcons, guiding the team to a 4 to7 record. While an interim role often comes with unique challenges, it still adds to [music] a broader pattern. His previous stint as a head coach with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2009 to 2011 also tells a similar story of struggle. In those three seasons, he managed only one winning campaign, finishing with an overall record of 17 wins and 31 losses. When you combine all these chapters, Morris's career head coaching record spanning at least parts of six seasons stands at a concerning 37.8% winning percentage. These numbers are not just statistics. They represent seasons of dashed hopes, missed opportunities, and the frustration of a fan base yearning for consistent success. In the highstakes world of the NFL, where every decision is scrutinized and every game carries immense weight, a track record like this inevitably leads to questions about long-term viability. While the player's support is a powerful indicator of a coach's ability to connect and motivate, ultimately the business of football demands wins. It demands a tangible return on investment, especially when a team has committed significant resources like the Falcons have with a quarterback of Kirk Cousins caliber. The narrative of finding those inches is compelling, and the grit displayed against the Buccaneers is commendable, but at some point those inches need to translate into a consistent string of victories. The pressure on Morris [music] is immense. And while Cousins's words offer a shield of internal support, they cannot entirely deflect the weight of a losing record. The front office will have to weigh the intangible benefits of locker room cohesion against the undeniable reality of the win loss column. A decision that will undoubtedly shape the future trajectory of this franchise. This isn't just about one coach. It's about the direction of an entire organization, the hopes of a city, and the pursuit of that elusive Super Bowl dream. The historical context of Morris's coaching career adds another layer of complexity [music] to an already intricate situation, forcing everyone involved to confront the difficult questions that arise when performance doesn't meet expectations. But let's shift gears for a moment because the story of Kirk Cousins extends far beyond the confines of the football field and the pressures of the coaching hot seat. It's a story that reminds us of the profound impact these athletes can have on their communities, especially during this festive season. On December 10th, MercedesBenz unveiled the details of their heartwarming holidays with love campaign and our very own 37-year-old quarterback stands as one of its proud ambassadors. [music] In an exclusive conversation with SI on Friday, Cousins shared his enthusiasm for this incredible initiative, shedding light on the spirit of generosity [music] that often goes unnoticed amidst the intense scrutiny of professional sports. This year, Mercedes-Benz is [music] making a significant difference by donating 12 East Sprinter vans to various organizations. And as one of the 12 chosen ambassadors, Cousins was given the incredible opportunity to select a deserving recipient. His choice, the City of Refuge, an organization located just a few blocks from the iconic Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. A true testament to his commitment to the local community. We're so grateful to Mercedes. Cousins expressed the SI, his voice filled with genuine appreciation. They're obviously a first class brand, but the people and the way they've contributed to this community in addition to being great partners to my wife and me is truly special," he continued highlighting the unique blend of global sophistication and personal connection that define their experience. That sophistication the brand has on a global scale has been brought to a personal level through our experience. We're very grateful to them. The city of refuge, the beneficiary of cousins thoughtful selection, operates with a powerful mission to lead individuals and families on an uninterrupted journey to self-sufficiency within the Atlanta community. Their comprehensive approach tackles critical areas such as health and wellness, housing, job training, and youth development, all designed to empower [music] and uplift those in need. It's a holistic vision that resonates deeply with the spirit of giving and community building. What's even more remarkable is that Cousins isn't alone in this philanthropic endeavor within the Falcon's ranks. Two other prominent Falcon stars, the electrifying Bigon Robinson and the legendary Matt Ryan also served as ambassadors for the Holidays with Love campaign this year. Robinson directed his donated van to the Atlanta Public Schools, [music] investing directly in the future of the city's youth. While Ryan, through his partnership with Mercedes, chose to support Raising Expectations Incorporated. These acts of kindness, these commitments to giving back paint a picture of athletes [music] who understand their platform and leverage it for the greater good. It's a powerful reminder that even amidst the fierce competition and the relentless pursuit of victory, there's a profound humanity that drives these individuals, a desire to make a tangible [music] difference in the lives of others. It's a story that deserves to be celebrated, a testament to the positive impact that can be forged when professional sports intersect with genuine community engagement. And that, my friends, brings us to the close of another exclusive report. We've delved into the complex world of the Atlanta Falcons. From the locker room dynamics to the harsh realities of the win loss column and even the heartwarming acts of generosity that [music] defines some of its biggest stars.
