Submit ReviewThe Atlanta Falcons’ offensive identity centers on their potentially dominant running game, and that will be spearheaded by their young duo at running back in rookie Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down how he thinks the team will try to split carries between the pair this year, along with Cordarrelle Patterson and quarterback Desmond Ridder. He discusses how Robinson may not hog all the rushing attempts, but should get plenty of opportunities as a pass-catcher this season to offset things.
Later, he discusses why the Falcons likely won’t be significantly more balanced on offense in 2023 than the were the previous season due to the style and identity that Arthur Smith wants in his offense. He breaks down why the team will continue to lean on the ground attack even if they think Ridder can be a more effective passer than Marcus Mariota, and why the Falcons may be in the vanguard as the NFL rolls back the clock to a time before it was known as a “passing league.”
Finally, he discusses the impact of injuries to Avery Williams and Caleb Huntley and why fullback Keith Smith was retained despite the Falcons potentially wanting more of a hybrid H-back/tight end in that role like Parker Hesse.
