WEBVTT - NFC South Preview: Falcons

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.360
<v Speaker 1>We are in fact talking about the Atlanta Falcons in

0:00:02.480 --> 0:00:06.960
<v Speaker 1>terms of our preview today, and listen, I think the

0:00:07.000 --> 0:00:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta Falcons are going to be a good team, but

0:00:09.000 --> 0:00:11.560
<v Speaker 1>I feel like there might be some natural regression because

0:00:11.560 --> 0:00:13.600
<v Speaker 1>of that Super Bowl hangover. And the other thing is,

0:00:13.640 --> 0:00:17.120
<v Speaker 1>remember their their offensive coordinator last year was Kyle Shanahan.

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:19.760
<v Speaker 1>Shanahan has moved over and is now the head coach

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:22.480
<v Speaker 1>of the San Francisco forty nine. And if you remember,

0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 1>as we get into the quarterback position, listen, Matt Ryan

0:00:25.040 --> 0:00:27.840
<v Speaker 1>won the m v P last year. He was quarterback

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:31.800
<v Speaker 1>two on the Player Raider. This guy through forty four yards,

0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:36.000
<v Speaker 1>thirty eight touchdowns and only seven interceptions. Okay, he was awesome.

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean he won the m v P. A lot

0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:41.600
<v Speaker 1>of people, however, credit this to what Shanahan was able

0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:44.520
<v Speaker 1>to do with Matt Ryan. In years past, Matt Ryan

0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:46.519
<v Speaker 1>was a guy who would start hot and then at

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:48.280
<v Speaker 1>the end of the season kind of fade. I remember

0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:50.239
<v Speaker 1>last year in the football season, even telling you that

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.239
<v Speaker 1>I thought Matt Ryan would fade. He put it in

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:55.560
<v Speaker 1>my eye because he sustained his excellence all season long

0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:58.639
<v Speaker 1>and ultimately won the MVP Award. But I don't know.

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that's going to continue this year.

0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:04.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, I feel like there's been a couple of,

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:06.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, a couple of things around Matt Ryan. He's

0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>been like the poster child for kind of like, you know,

0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 1>not watching the film and putting it away. I don't

0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:15.120
<v Speaker 1>know how this team is going to bounce back in adversity.

0:01:15.160 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 1>And what I will also say, and if you listen

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:20.080
<v Speaker 1>to Fantasy Freestyle, you've heard me say this time and

0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:22.839
<v Speaker 1>time again, he will not be a quarterback on any

0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>of my teams. Why Because I Am not using the

0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>draft capital that it takes to get one of these

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>top five quarterbacks. Okay, I'm not gonna spend my second

0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:35.120
<v Speaker 1>round pick, my third round pick, my fourth round pick

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 1>on a quarterback. And by the time I'm looking to

0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 1>get a quarterback, whether that's in rounds eight or nine

0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:42.280
<v Speaker 1>or even seven, Matt Ryan won't be on the board anymore. Okay,

0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:44.000
<v Speaker 1>So he's not gonna be on any of my teams.

0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Is he probably gonna be a top five kind of quarterback? Maybe?

0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>But I think there is some regression. And so, Chris,

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.000
<v Speaker 1>if you want to know the truth, we're doing. Last week,

0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 1>we did hashtag sleep a week. This week, it's like

0:01:55.360 --> 0:02:00.120
<v Speaker 1>hashtag busts. Right. He is actually my hashtag bust for

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>this team, the Atlanta Falcons, because people are gonna pay

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:04.360
<v Speaker 1>up to try to get Matt Ryan. I think he'll

0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>have a great year, but I don't think it's gonna

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 1>be the m v P again. I think he's gonna regress.

0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:11.040
<v Speaker 1>So that makes him my hashtag bus. But here on

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the fantasy Freestyle, you know what we call that, right, Chris,

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:26.040
<v Speaker 1>we call that what is means phony. You need to

0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>forget about it because he's gonna be going pretty high.

0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:31.120
<v Speaker 1>I do have him ranked ultimately as my fifth highest quarterback.

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Corey Parson, the Fantasy executive, is hardcore fading Matt Ryan.

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.280
<v Speaker 1>He has them all the way down at QB ten.

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you something, if nine other teams have

0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 1>drafted their quarterback and Matt Ryan is still available, then

0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.040
<v Speaker 1>you can go out and get him. Okay, but I think, um,

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>he will not return the value that you expect this year.

0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 1>As we moved to the running back position, Listen, Davante

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:54.240
<v Speaker 1>Freeman is a beast. He was running back six last year,

0:02:54.240 --> 0:02:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and I think his contract extension that they're talking about

0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 1>is well deserved. My man had over fifteen hundred combined yard,

0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 1>thirteen combined touchdowns with over fifty receptions. I like this

0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.040
<v Speaker 1>guy a lot. I think, if you're sitting at the

0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:09.760
<v Speaker 1>back of round one and Freeman is available, snatch him

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 1>up and take it to the bank. This is the

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 1>guy they use in the red zone. They used DeVonta Freeman.

0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I think DeVonta Freeman, even though Tevin Coleman is there,

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I think DeVonta Freeman is a locked and loaded RB one.

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:25.360
<v Speaker 1>I have him as my sixth ranked running back in

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 1>all of fantasy this year. I think he's a great

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:31.359
<v Speaker 1>bet to stay consistent. But here's the thing. So is

0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>Tevin Coleman. Tevin Coleman, in my opinion, is the best

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.880
<v Speaker 1>number two running back in the NFL. I think when

0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:42.760
<v Speaker 1>you look at all these committees, I think Tevin Coleman

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:46.320
<v Speaker 1>is the best committee member or number two back in

0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the NFL. This guy, he also you know, he had

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 1>a combined like nine yards. He had five hundred twenty

0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 1>on the ground, four twenty in the air, like eleven

0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:01.920
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns him self combined. And he did that in thirteen games.

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Remember he had that sickle cell issue. I think he

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>is the strongest handcuff in the league. I think he's

0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:09.400
<v Speaker 1>viable regardless. Okay, I have him ranked as my eighteenth

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.600
<v Speaker 1>running back and Corey Parks and the Fantasy executive has

0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:16.040
<v Speaker 1>him at nineteen, So I think there's definitely fantasy goodness. Now,

0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:19.080
<v Speaker 1>remember this is a productive offense. They had over five

0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:21.760
<v Speaker 1>hundred points last year. So all these guys were talking

0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:26.599
<v Speaker 1>about Matt Ryan, Tevin Coleman, Davonte Freeman, all of them

0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 1>are viable. Okay, wide receiver position, Okay, listen, Julio Jones.

0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.719
<v Speaker 1>He's good. He's good at football. Okay, he's very good

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.160
<v Speaker 1>at football. In fact, I would tell you that I

0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:41.000
<v Speaker 1>think he has the best skill of any wide receiver

0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.560
<v Speaker 1>in the National Football League. If I needed to take

0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:45.360
<v Speaker 1>one wide receiver and you told me that they would

0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 1>be healthy all sixteen games, I'll take Julio Jones. You

0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.320
<v Speaker 1>can have Antonio Brown, you could have Oldell Beckham, you

0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:54.080
<v Speaker 1>could have Mike Evans, you can have Jordy Nelson, you

0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:57.360
<v Speaker 1>could have a J. Green. I am taking Julio Jones.

0:04:57.400 --> 0:04:59.919
<v Speaker 1>I think he is, you know, pound for pounds, skill

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.559
<v Speaker 1>for skill, the best wide receiver in the National Football League.

0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:06.960
<v Speaker 1>And remember he had surgery earlier in the off season,

0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:09.159
<v Speaker 1>but they call it minor to remove a bunyon. My

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:11.840
<v Speaker 1>only issue is that he is a little bit injury

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 1>or prone, and it is with that foot. Remember he

0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 1>had things like the Jones fracture of the Liz the

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Liz Frank that sort of issue, and that is something

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 1>that can linger. That is something that it takes a

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:25.880
<v Speaker 1>long time to recover. Four um so if and he's

0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a first round pick. So if you want to, uh,

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:32.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, roll the dice and think he'll play all

0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.760
<v Speaker 1>six team games, I completely endorse him as the top

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:39.600
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver on the board. But remember the Atlanta Falcons

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:41.800
<v Speaker 1>are such a productive offense and they will probably be

0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:44.800
<v Speaker 1>one of the top offenses again this year that their

0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:47.280
<v Speaker 1>second and third wide receiver has become viable as well.

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I said the same thing where we're talking about the

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Green Bay Packers. Remember it's not only Jordy Nelson, but

0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 1>it's also Davante Adams, It's also Randall Cobb. So in

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 1>this situation, it's not only Julio Jones. In this case,

0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:03.280
<v Speaker 1>it's also Muhammed Snow and it's also Tyler Gabriel Okay,

0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:06.159
<v Speaker 1>Snow is gonna be more that PPR guy. He's gonna

0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 1>be more the guys that gets receptions. He's gonna be

0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:10.040
<v Speaker 1>a guy. You know. He had six hundred thirty five

0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:12.960
<v Speaker 1>six d fifty three yards last year. I think he's

0:06:13.000 --> 0:06:17.280
<v Speaker 1>a viable wide receiver three even to have on your

0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 1>team or flex play. Same could be said with Taylor Gabriel.

0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Gabriel is a kind of guy who's gonna be more

0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:25.279
<v Speaker 1>the big play threat or the guy who can catch

0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:27.600
<v Speaker 1>up and underneath and take it to the house. But um,

0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:31.359
<v Speaker 1>he's also viable. So is their tight end Austin Hooper.

0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:34.120
<v Speaker 1>There's actually been a lot of hype around Hooper. Okay,

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:36.480
<v Speaker 1>he's supposedly worked with Matt Ryan in the off season,

0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think that because of this offense, there is

0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:42.240
<v Speaker 1>enough production to go around. Remember how much Matt Ryan

0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.000
<v Speaker 1>loved having Tony Gonzalez as his tight end. I'm telling

0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you right now, Austin Hooper is my hashtag sleeper week

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:49.960
<v Speaker 1>on this show. We call him a diamond in the rough.

0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Last year, he had only nineteen catches, two ord just

0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 1>seventy one yards and three touchdowns. I think it's possible

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.360
<v Speaker 1>for him to get fifty five undred fifty yards, maybe

0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>six or seven touchdowns. I think it's possible, so does

0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Mike Clay who does his projections as well. A lot

0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.400
<v Speaker 1>of people are high on Austin Hooper. So if you're

0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:07.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna wait at tight end and knock at the Olsens,

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:11.240
<v Speaker 1>the Reeds, the Gronks, okay, I think a viable thing

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:14.760
<v Speaker 1>is to wait and potentially get Austin Hooper as a

0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 1>deep sleeper who could return interesting value. Remember in an

0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 1>offense that led the NFL and points scored last year

0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:24.240
<v Speaker 1>and nothing nothing. Julio Jones is their big ex receiver,

0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:27.400
<v Speaker 1>but guys like Gabriel, guys like Snow those are more

0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:29.560
<v Speaker 1>underneath guys whom in the red zone he may look

0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 1>for Austin Hooper. I like Austin Hooper as a deep,

0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:35.520
<v Speaker 1>deep sleeper. When you also look at their schedule, I

0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.880
<v Speaker 1>think their schedule is very interesting. The Atlanta Falcons, they

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.000
<v Speaker 1>play the a f C East as their a f

0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:42.880
<v Speaker 1>C division they play, but they play all four of

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.800
<v Speaker 1>those teams in a row weeks fourth rate early in

0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>the season, along with a little bye weekend there they

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 1>gotta early by week five. I don't like that, actually,

0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>I think when you have guys like Julio Jones who

0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:54.720
<v Speaker 1>may need that blow later in the season and a

0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:57.120
<v Speaker 1>week off to rest and ankle or a foot, I

0:07:57.120 --> 0:08:00.240
<v Speaker 1>don't think an early buy suits them that well. Um,

0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 1>they're also it's interesting they you know, they're play in

0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 1>the dome after week eleven, which is pretty much like November.

0:08:09.120 --> 0:08:13.280
<v Speaker 1>They only have one game where they play outside after

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:16.240
<v Speaker 1>week eleven. All but two of their games are at home.

0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Week sixteen, which by the way, is the fantasy championship

0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:23.520
<v Speaker 1>in most leagues. They are at New Orleans in another dome,

0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:26.560
<v Speaker 1>and boy, when the Falcons and Saints get together, they

0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 1>light up the scoreboard. So if you're positioning yourself for

0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 1>a championship run, take note. Falcons at Saints Week sixteen

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.720
<v Speaker 1>is a week that's gonna have a ton of fantasy

0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:39.840
<v Speaker 1>goodness in the Dome. Their only road game that they're

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:41.920
<v Speaker 1>outside after week eleven of the season is a game

0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:44.760
<v Speaker 1>in week fifteen where they're at Tampa Bay on the

0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.680
<v Speaker 1>long grass there in Tampa. Okay, one other thing I

0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:50.440
<v Speaker 1>will say, though, you know how I like to fade

0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:53.319
<v Speaker 1>the public and uh, last year on the Fantasy Freestyle

0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:57.520
<v Speaker 1>or shot callers, I talked about the trap game. I

0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>think the Falcons opener it's potentially a trap game. They

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:05.080
<v Speaker 1>go on the road to UH Chicago to take on

0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:07.679
<v Speaker 1>the Bears, and everyone thinks the Bears are gonna win

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:09.880
<v Speaker 1>only a few games this year. Everyone thinks the Falcons

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>are primed to repeat and go to the Super Bowl again.

0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.559
<v Speaker 1>Watch that on the road. I can see right away

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:19.800
<v Speaker 1>week one the Falcons involved in a trap game. But

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 1>we shall see right that's why. That's why they play

0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the greames. As one famous broadcaster used to say, like

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:28.640
<v Speaker 1>I said, though the poll has them at nine and

0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:31.840
<v Speaker 1>a half, is they're over under right now? A lot

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.640
<v Speaker 1>of you guys are fans of the Falcons, forty seven

0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:37.560
<v Speaker 1>percent of you, And thanks to everybody who's voting at

0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:39.960
<v Speaker 1>F and T, s Y radio, at Spit and Speed,

0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:41.959
<v Speaker 1>you could always ask me questions, you could always follow me.

0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Percent of you right now will take the over on

0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that line. So many people think the Falcons will win

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.640
<v Speaker 1>double digits. Only a third of you, thirty three percent

0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:53.640
<v Speaker 1>say the under say, actually, that's a good line. I

0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:55.480
<v Speaker 1>see them as about a nine or ten win team.

0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 1>So I would not make that bet I did. I

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:00.600
<v Speaker 1>mentioned my man Gabe Morancy, who follow as us here

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 1>on the fantasy sports radio network Red Heat and Rage

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:07.360
<v Speaker 1>every night at a PM. Gabe has responded back. He

0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.720
<v Speaker 1>says he thinks the Falcons are going back to the

0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:14.320
<v Speaker 1>super Bowl. I don't know about that. I do not

0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:16.560
<v Speaker 1>think that the Falcons will return to the super Bowl.

0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:18.680
<v Speaker 1>There's some other teams I like in the NFC. I

0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 1>told you about Green Bay, I told you about Seattle.

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:22.680
<v Speaker 1>I also got a surprise team in the NFC East

0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:26.320
<v Speaker 1>when we get to them. But um, Gabe certainly has

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.360
<v Speaker 1>high expectations for the Falcons. I think there will be

0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:31.599
<v Speaker 1>some regression. I want to bring in my man, the

0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 1>bounty hunter. Hey, Chris, how do we feel about the

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta Falcons? They're over under for their win total is

0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:39.560
<v Speaker 1>nine and a half. Would you be more likely to

0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:41.679
<v Speaker 1>make this bet? And if you do, which side do

0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:45.320
<v Speaker 1>you lean over or under? I'm definitely going over on this. Really,

0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.360
<v Speaker 1>you're a big fan of the Falcons. Well, you know what,

0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 1>It's not just a biased thing for me, I do.

0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I consider the Falcons one of my favorite NFL teams

0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:55.080
<v Speaker 1>outside of the New York John Dirty Birds. The Dirty Birds.

0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:56.920
<v Speaker 1>They've always been that was my peewee football team. So

0:10:57.120 --> 0:11:00.240
<v Speaker 1>I have nothing. It's it's all sentimental for me. That

0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:03.160
<v Speaker 1>being said, I do love this Falcons team. I don't

0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:06.000
<v Speaker 1>think there's gonna be necessarily a super Bowl hangover. If anything,

0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I think they're angrier and hungrier just to get back.

0:11:09.480 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>I think Matt Ryan, I think you're right, Matt Ryan

0:11:11.840 --> 0:11:13.679
<v Speaker 1>maybe top ten. I don't think he's m v P.

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:15.840
<v Speaker 1>I think the m v P of this team this

0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:19.400
<v Speaker 1>year is running back DeVonta Freeman. Yeah, running back DeVonta

0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Freeman is going very high. He is a first round pick.

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:23.920
<v Speaker 1>In my estimation, I have him is running back five

0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:27.200
<v Speaker 1>or six UM. But I also think Tevin Coleman is viable.

0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:30.640
<v Speaker 1>That is a backfield a committee where both guys can

0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:34.200
<v Speaker 1>be productive. That is how dynamic this offense is.
