One could argue that the biggest surprise of the Atlanta Falcons' season thus far has been defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich.
The long-time defensive coach has been a star for the Dirty Birds. He has completely transformed the unit in impressive time, and is the biggest reason for the team's .500 record entering their bye week.
Meanwhile, his former team, the New York Jets, is reeling as they have looked even worse than they did last year. A big factor in their 0-4 start has been the defense, which has underperformed after some brilliant years with Ulbrich at the helm.
