Quinn is Falcons coach

SEATTLE Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn is the new head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, the National Football League team announced on Monday.

Quinn, widely expected for weeks to be in line for the job, leaves the Seahawks less than 24 hours after they lost the Super Bowl XLIX to the New England Patriots. He takes over from Mike Smith, who was fired in December after seven years at the helm. The Falcons were 6-10 for the season and missed the playoffs for the second consecutive year. “This felt like the right fit from the beginning,” Quinn, 44, said.
