Aaron reviews the All-22 film from the Atlanta Falcons' Week 5 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, discussing if this is Marcus Mariota's best game of the season and why Grady Jarrett is the catalyst for the team's defensive improvement.

He breaks down Mariota's good plays from Sunday before discussing the team's decision to play more man coverage, and why it worked better vs. the Bucs this time around. Then, he discusses why Jarrett is the biggest catalyst to the defensive improvement seen so far this year.

Then, he answers listener questions about the team's usage of play action on third downs and if Arthur Smith's play-calling is the cause of the increased explosiveness in this year's offense. Then he breaks down his thoughts on the team's linebackers through five games, discussing Rashaan Evans, Troy Andersen, Deion Jones, Mykal Walker, and Nate Landman.
