Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff cut his teeth in the Patriots' front office, learning how to construct a successful organization from team-building master Bill Belichick. When Dimitroff was afforded the chance to run his own operation in Atlanta, he parted ways with his mentor in one key area: Whereas Belichick emphasized size and power, Dimitroff coined the phrase "urgent athleticism" to describe his own draft philosophy. That difference played out in stark terms for one half at NRG Stadium on Sunday evening. Despite the heartbreaking loss, the talented young roster compiled by Dimitroff, Quinn and assistant GM Scott Pioli is poised to remain an NFC powerhouse for the next few years.
