Jeff Ulbrich’s return as Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator signals a new era of stability and strategic growth for a defensive unit often hampered by coaching changes. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down what Ulbrich’s return means for player development, including rising stars like James Pearce, Jalon Walker, and Xavier Watts, and how Atlanta’s defense outperformed expectations in 2025. Will a shift toward a 4-3 base defense under the familiar “wide 9” scheme cement the Falcons as one of the NFL’s top units?
Key topics include Kevin Stefanski’s impact on Bijan Robinson’s future stock, the looming challenge of roster decisions at running back and cornerback, and the ongoing offensive overhaul. Hot takes fly on whether Atlanta should have pursued Sean McDermott, the balancing act of resource allocation, and what upgrades are still needed to push the Falcons into elite territory.
