Inconsistencies in stopping the opposing teams’ ground game and not being able to get pressure on the quarterback have allowed the defense to get picked apart at times and expose the young secondary.
The Atlanta Falcons for the first time in a while have a chance to change that perception. With the moves that the team made in free agency and the draft, the Falcons have the pieces and potential to have one of the best defensive lines in the NFL.
The anchor of this defensive line is none other than Grady Jarrett. Jarrett is one of the few people on the team that no one in the fan base has to ever question.
