Locked On Falcons

Can the Atlanta Falcons rebound to playoff form? Host Aaron Freeman and guest Allen Strk (‪@TheFalcoholicLive‬) share their biggest takeaways from the team’s Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos and look forward to what needs fixing during their bye week. The middle of the Falcons defense was a glaring concern against the Broncos and the healthy return of linebacker Troy Andersen may hold the key to fixing it. Aaron shares why he was let down by the team’s offensive performance against the Broncos and if the team can rebound against quality opponents after their bye. Later, they look at three keys to getting better play out of both sides of the ball after the bye week. On defense, they look towards healthy returns of Andersen and cornerbacks Dee Alford and Mike Hughes, and the team looking to use more dime defense to hide struggling linebacker Nate Landman. On offense, they focus on diversify the team’s personnel packages, a healthy return of center Drew Dalman, and making better usage of tight end Kyle Pitts.
