	Description:		Atlanta Falcons will undergo some changes defensively under new defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen. It remains to be seen what exactly those changes are but based on Nielsen's statements and history coaching the New Orleans Saints, host Aaron Freeman makes some educated guesses. But first to understand where the Falcons are going regarding their defense, one must understand where they've been. So Aaron breaks down the hallmarks of the Dan Quinn, Raheem Morris, and Dean Pees-led defenses in recent years, including their hybrid fronts and preferred coverage shells. Then, he breaks down what fronts and coverage shells Nielsen's defense is likely to feature more or less than his predecessors. Later, Aaron answers listener questions including which miracle is more likely: Feleipe Franks scoring a touchdown or Jalen Mayfield becoming a decent starting tackle in the NFL. He also discusses the possibility of Bijan Robinson returning punts and then looks at the potential for the Falcons to pursue Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper in the future.
