Submit ReviewThe Atlanta Falcons shocked many with reports that they won't pursue Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson after he was slapped with the non-exclusive franchise tag. Which led to various NFL media members suggesting that they don't really care about winning. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down why it's a bit more complicated than that, looking at what the team's record could be with Jackson at the helm versus Desmond Ridder, the ongoing conflict between the NFL owners and NFL Players Association, the Falcons' past mistakes with previous regimes and Matt Ryan, and how the discussions surrounding quarterbacks needs more nuance. Finally, he looks at Calvin Ridley's Players Tribune article detailing his mistakes and mental health battle.
