The Atlanta Falcons intend to leave no stone unturned when it comes to finding a new starting quarterback, which may include adding some imperfect solutions including current Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down why the Broncos will certainly part ways with Wilson and why he could be an option for the Falcons looking for a cheap, veteran player. But he expresses his skepticism on Wilson's potential fit in the Zac Robinson-led Falcons offense. Later, he discusses why Wilson's wife Ciara and her ex, Future, might prevent him from being fully embraced by the city of Atlanta. He also breaks down why Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield could be a potential option given his background working with Robinson in Los Angeles, and whether or not a new team might not get the same results. He also discusses Rams QB Carson Wentz's performance in their 2023 season finale, and whether he's an option to start or be a backup for the Falcons.

The Atlanta Falcons can find a possible answer at quarterback in the 2024 NFL Draft by selecting Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy. Host Aaron Freeman goes through a recent mock draft from Benjamin Solak (@theringer) that had the Falcons selecting McCarthy with the eighth overall selection. Aaron breaks down why McCarthy's stock is on the rise, why he'll be inevitable compared to Desmond Ridder, but also why he thinks McCarthy is a better bet than some other alternative options like Justin Fields. Later, he looks at alternative selections in the first round of the draft including Alabama edge-rusher Dallas Turner and LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers. Finally, he answers a listener question about whether or not there needs to changes in how teams should evaluate QBs based on this year's postseason results.

The Atlanta Falcons new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson and defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake spoke to the media for the first time on Wednesday. Host Aaron Freeman and guest Jarvis Davis (@LockedOnATL) break down their biggest takeaways including the news that the defense will be reverting back to a 3-4 defensive front under Lake. They discuss how that scheme change will help young players like Arnold Ebiketie, DeAngelo Malone, Zach Harrison, but may hurt veterans like Grady Jarrett and David Onyemata. They also discuss the team's need to bolster their depth along the interior of the defensive line and whether or not the draft or free agency is the best avenue to do so. Later, they break down Robinson's comments about the team's need at quarterback and whether soon-to-be-traded Chicago Bears passer Justin Fields, or some other player best fits the role.

The Atlanta Falcons are looking for the right fits for their team under new head coach Raheem Morris and offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, especially at quarterback. Host Aaron Freeman and guest Trevor Sikkema (@NFLStockExchange) break down the top four quarterbacks in the 2024 NFL Draft: Caleb Williams (Southern California), Drake Maye (North Carolina), Jayden Daniels (LSU), and J.J. McCarthy (Michigan) and their potential to work in Atlanta's offense. Later, they look at positions of need for the Falcons beyond the quarterback position that could be in the mix for their first round pick. Trevor discusses two premier wide receivers in Malik Nabers (LSU) and Rome Odunze (Washington), and three pass-rushers: Dallas Turner (Alabama), Jared Verse (Florida State), and Byron Murphy II (Texas). Trevor also breaks down a sleeper in Iowa defensive back Cooper DeJean, who could be a versatile Jalen Ramsey-esque playmaker in the Falcons secondary. Finally, they look at Day 2 prospects that could fit the Falcons at wide receiver, edge rusher, and defensive tackle in the second or third rounds.

The Atlanta Falcons are looking for a new quarterback, and Chicago Bears QB Justin Fields is a big name that is expected to be traded. Host Aaron Freeman is joined by guest Lorin Cox (@LockedOnBears) to discuss Fields' trade value and potential fit in Atlanta. They break down whether Fields' running ability or passing potential will be the key to continued improvement. Later, Aaron discusses why he went from someone that advocated for the Falcons to draft Fields in 2021, to being lukewarm on trading for him in 2024. He argues why the Falcons could justify a Fields trade along similar lines as their justifications for Marcus Mariota and Desmond Ridder in recent years. He also breaks down why he thinks Fields won't be atop their wishlist, but what would need to occur for the Falcons to pick up the phone with the Bears.

The Atlanta Falcons need to upgrade their quarterback in an offseason where there is pressure on new head coach Raheem Morris to win immediately. Host Aaron Freeman picks the brain of guest Josh Kendall (@TheAthletic) to see which direction the team might go including Kirk Cousins, Justin Fields, and Jacoby Brissett. They also discuss the possibility of the team drafting a rookie to plug in at quarterback including LSU's Jayden Daniels. Later, they discuss the biggest priorities the Falcons need to address this offseason that aren't the quarterback position including defensive end, cornerback, and wide receiver. Josh also shares his thoughts on whether or not Morris' likeability will translate directly on the field. Finally, they discuss the potential futures of cornerback A.J. Terrell and tight end Kyle Pitts in terms of whether contract extensions and fifth-year options are on the horizon.

As the owner of the Atlanta Falcons, Arthur Blank felt the need to address some things when it came to the process of hiring Raheem Morris. The first thing that he felt passionately about was whether or not he offered Belichick the job. Tenitra Batiste, Tori McElhaney, Jarvis Davis and Aaron Freeman talked about what stood out to them in Blank’s press conference. Secondly, the team discussed how there should be hope for the Falcons after watching Super Bowl 58 last night. The Falcons will have to have an elite level of sustainability if they want to achieve the level of success that the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers have attained. Lastly, the team discussed Usher’s halftime performance, and how he gave the city of Atlanta the performance that they needed.

The Atlanta Falcons are one of the top potential destinations for Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins should he hit the open market this offseason. Host Aaron Freeman is joined by guest Luke Braun (@LockedOnVikings) to discuss the possibility that Cousins makes it to the market and whether or not the Achilles tendon tear he suffered in 2023 will negatively impact his chances to succeed in 2024 and beyond on a new team. Later, Aaron breaks down why he thinks the Falcons would be preferred destination for Cousins over another suitor like the Pittsburgh Steelers. Finally, he looks at a mock draft from NFL.com's Lance Zierlein where the Falcons trade up for North Carolina QB Drake Maye.

The Atlanta Falcons absolutely nailed it when they signed safety Jessie Bates last offseason. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down how Bates' "unique approach" to coverage rules led to his success as an All-Pro and Pro Bowl safety. Then, he discusses why the Falcons should be looking for an upgrade at the other starting spot after a disappointing year from Richie Grant. But he explains why Grant still adds value as a reserve and role player, along with DeMarcco Hellams. Later, he breaks down the crop of impending free agents with connections to new coaches Raheem Morris, Jimmy Lake, and Justin Hood.

The Atlanta Falcons cornerback play was up and down throughout the 2023 NFL season. Top cornerback A.J. Terrell struggled a bit with allowing too many explosive plays while Jeff Okudah had a rough November. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down the areas and aspects that Terrell, Okudah, and Clark Phillips must improve upon to get better production from this position group in 2024. He also breaks down whether or not this offseason is the right time to extend Terrell’s contract and how much should his price tag be. He also breaks down the revolving door opposite Terrell at outside cornerback, and why Okudah and Phillips may not be the preferred options to become a “door stop.” Aaron also breaks down why Phillips’ zone coverage ability might be valuable in a zone-heavy scheme employed under new head coach Raheem Morris and defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake. He looks ahead to the offseason and discusses if the Falcons are poised to find a long-term solution at outside cornerback in free agency or the draft, and whether Okudah, Tre Flowers, and Mike Hughes are poised to return.

The Atlanta Falcons could be in for a new look on defense under head coach Raheem Morris. However, host Aaron Freeman explains why that is unlikely to extend to the team's linebacker corps. He breaks down why Kaden Elliss, despite being a perfect fit in former defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen's scheme, should have a similar role under Morris and Nielsen's replacement in Jimmy Lake. He looks at Morris' usage of simulated pressures with Los Angeles Rams linebacker Ernest Jones. Later, he breaks down why Nate Landman despite positive play in 2023 is likely relegated to being a backup moving forward. He discusses why the Falcons' defensive ceiling is higher if Troy Andersen can take over and become a reliable every-down player. Finally, he looks towards the offseason to discuss if the Falcons are going to be targeting depth in the draft or looking to upgrade their starting spot in free agency.

The Atlanta Falcons under new head coach Raheem Morris continue to fill out their coaching staff with new faces and holdovers. Assistant defensive coach Jerry Gray was among the official announcements that are sticking around, and the team has also found a new defensive line coach in Jay Rodgers. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down why these moves should enhance the team's defense both on the back end in the secondary and up front with their defensive line. Later, he recaps which 2024 NFL Draft prospects stood out on the second day of Senior Bowl practice. With more focus on the trenches, he breaks down the players that he liked on both the offensive and defensive lines in the 1-on-1 matchups, including Oregon center Jackson Powers-Johnson, Miami guard Javion Cohen, and more. Finally, he discusses which quarterbacks and wide receivers stood out on the second day of practice. He discusses if any passer made up ground on Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and shines a light on some receivers that could add much-needed speed to the Falcons lineup including Michigan's Roman Wilson, North Carolina's Devontez Walker, and Lousiville's Jamari Thrash.

He also breaks down why Georgia wide receiver Ladd McConkey consistently caught his eye among the wide receivers catching passes from Penix and the other quarterbacks. He breaks whether or not the Falcons will find the speed their offense needs down in Mobile. Later, he discusses some of the standouts in the trenches, including a sleeper at offensive tackle Christian Jones (Texas). He breaks down why size is on display in Mobile, and where that could fit in with the Falcons' plans for their run game under new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson. Finally, he shares his thoughts on Arthur Smith's hiring with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Ben Johnson's choice to stick with the Detroit Lions, and Raheem Morris' 100 percent approval rating from his peers like New York Jets defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich.

The Atlanta Falcons have named a new defensive coordinator in former University of Washington coach Jimmy Lake under new head coach Raheem Morris. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down why he thinks Lake can help elevate the Falcons' secondary without modifying their defensive scheme too much from what his predecessor Ryan Nielsen was able to do. He breaks down Lake's track record of producing NFL-caliber cornerbacks and safeties from his days at UW. Later, he looks at the Falcons reportedly retaining three offensive assistants in T.J. Yates, Dwayne Ledford, and Michael Pitre. He discusses how the team holding onto Ledford (offensive line) and Pitre (running backs) shows that Morris and new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson believe the Falcons' run game will rebound after a down year. He discusses how Yates's move from wide receiver to quarterbacks coach should be a better use of his skill set. Finally, he looks at some quarterback prospects at this week's Senior Bowl that might be on the Falcons' radar. He breaks down his thoughts on Michael Penix, Jr. (Washington), Bo Nix (Oregon), Spencer Rattler (South Carolina), Joe Milton (Tennessee), Sam Hartman (Notre Dame), Michael Pratt (Tulane), and Carter Bradley (South Alabama).
