The Atlanta Falcons got a big boost from some new wrinkles on both sides of the ball in their Week 16 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down the real catalyst to the Falcons' "offensive breakout" was owed to an impressive running game, spearheaded by the return of some key starters up front. He breaks down how running backs Bijan Robinson and Cordarrelle Patterson were able to create even when the blocking wasn't there.

Later, he breaks down quarterback Taylor Heinicke's performance versus the Colts. He discusses Heinicke effectively managing the game with a high dosage of screens and checkdowns while the Falcons' usage of no-huddle offense saw a boost with Heinicke under center.

Finally, he discusses the Falcons' defense and their ability to get consistent pressure on Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew. He breaks down the mid-game adjustment that saw the Falcons spamming Cover 3 and how that fits with rookie safety DeMarcco Hellam's skillset.
