PFT reports that the Falcons have their guy...they just aren't sure exactly who he is. They speculate Mike Singletary from San Francisco, but they also think Louisville coach Bobby Petrino could be it. If this is true..then we have one less competitor for HC. Don't shoot the messanger..just passing the news along

FALCONS HAVE A NEW HEAD COACH
We can tell you that the Atlanta Falcons have a new head coach.
What we don't know is who it is.
We know that they have a new coach because we know who a member of his staff is going to be. But we can't name the member of the staff without giving up our source.
Stay tuned.
Our guess remains that it's 49ers assistant head coach Mike Singletary, primarily because most of the other candidates are from teams that are still playing. The only short-lister whose team is finished is Steelers offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt, but it would be a shocker if he were to take the job without interviewing for the vacancy in Pittsburgh. His interview there is scheduled for Tuesday.

IS PETRINO THE MYSTERY MAN?
As the NFL media scrambles to figure out who the next Falcons coach will be, we're told that one of the rumors floating around league and college circles is that Louisville coach Bobby Petrino is the guy.
If Petrino was interviewed for the job, he wisely kept it quiet so as not to hurt his recruiting efforts.
Stay tuned.
