Aaron discusses the Atlanta Falcons quarterback situation and why Desmond Ridder should be the talk of the town from here on after his thrilling comeback performance in the team's preseason-opening win over the Detroit Lions. He breaks down why he spends little time or energy concerned with Marcus Mariota's performances before diving into which players on offense and defense helped or hurt their chances of making the roster. That discussion includes the ongoing competition at center between Drew Dalman and Matt Hennessy and if the Falcons need to shore up their defensive line depth still.
