Aaron is joined by Allen Strk (The Falcoholic) to discuss whether the Atlanta Falcons will win the battle in the trenches against the Carolina Panthers in Week 14.

They discuss whether the presence of Panthers quarterback Cam Newton and a new play-caller will make things tougher or easier for the Falcons to stop the run. Then, the break down the team's offensive line struggles and whether Panthers pass-rushers like Brian Burns and Haason Reddick will create havoc for the Falcons' offense. Is the Falcons' running game poised to play a big role in their offensive success?

Finally, they answer a pair of listener questions about the struggles of the Falcons pass protection against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and what their offseason strategy will be dealing with the contracts of Matt Ryan, Jake Matthews, Deion Jones, Grady Jarrett and Calvin Ridley. They wonder if several of those players will get traded.
