Falcons are preparing for harsh John Harbaugh reality with polarizing new interview

The Atlanta Falcons thought they were in a good spot to hire John Harbaugh, but that's not the case. Not only does Arthur Blank want him in Atlanta, he would be the perfect fit for a franchise amid an eight-year playoff drought, but it remains to be seen if he'll even accept an interview with the Falcons.

CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones reported the Falcons are beside the New York Giants atop Harbaugh's list, which is a good sign for their interview hopes. However, that's it for good news, as the belief is that the Super Bowl-winning head coach desires full control and QB stability with his new team.
