The Atlanta Falcons need to learn more about quarterback Desmond Ridder in 2023, with one big potential lesson coming in the form of how the young passer performs against man coverage. Ridder's initial four starts weren't particularly promising in that arena, and if it continues to be a problem, one solution may be to ask him to run more.

Host Aaron Freeman breaks down how defenses that deploy man coverage struggle against running quarterbacks. The concern with increasing Ridder's carries might be increasing the potential of injury, and Aaron also discusses why getting a full year to evaluate Ridder is an integral part of the team's rebuild.
