The Atlanta Falcons don't know yet which of their two quarterbacks: Taylor Heinicke or Desmond Ridder, will start in the team's season finale against the New Orleans Saints. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down how the health of Heinicke's ankle will determine it and why we won't have an ideal until the end of the practice week.

Later, he revisits the Falcons Week 17 loss to the Chicago Bears and how successful the Bears were using wide receiver D.J. Moore in the slot to exploit the Falcons defense. He compares Moore's production to Tyreek Hill and discusses if the Falcons made a mistake by not having Dee Alford in the slot.

Finally, he discusses the "progress" the team has undergone under Arthur Smith to rebuild the team to create an environment conducive to successfully developing a quarterback and how that could play into the decision to keep or fire him at the end of the season.
