Man Hour NFL Talk — Wed, 13 May 2026 10:58:52 GMT

REVIVAL: How Atlanta Falcons Defense IMPROVED Under Jeff Ulbrich and Will Keep It Going in 2026

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 13 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

Atlanta Falcons transformed their defense for the better in 2025 but strive to reach elite status in 2026. Host Aaron Freeman and guest Cody Alexander (Match Quarters) break down Jeff Ulbrich’s wide-nine and quarters coverage fusion with Raheem Morris’s five-man fronts, spotlighting the dramatic improvement in Atlanta’s pass rush and the ongoing struggle against the run.

Key topics include Avieon Terrell’s arrival and its implications for A.J. Terrell and the secondary, the resurgence of heavier personnel and "13" personnel trends inspired by Sean McVay’s Rams, and how linebacker additions like Kendal Daniels and nickel specialist Billy Bowman could reshape the Falcons' adaptability. Cody offers insight into new defensive pass game coordinator Patrick Toney’s role in evolving defensive schemes and predicts how Atlanta will keep up with cutting-edge NFL offenses. Will Ulbrich’s defense continue its climb, or does a new challenge await in 2026?

BREAKOUT: Will Jalon Walker ELEVATE Atlanta Falcons Pass Rush With James Pearce’s UNCERTAIN Future?

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 11 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

Atlanta Falcons face a pivotal year as Jalon Walker’s versatility headlines growing expectations for the defensive front. Can Walker elevate his pass rush and fill the void if James Pearce misses time due to a suspension? As questions swirl around the edge rusher rotation—featuring Samson Ebukam, Azeez Ojulari, and a recovering Zach Harrison—the Falcons’ ability to replicate last season’s sack production hangs in the balance.

Host Aaron Freeman unpacks the volatility surrounding James Pearce’s breakout rookie campaign and explores whether he can silence the doubters in year two. On the offensive side, Jack Nelson’s battle for a swing tackle spot heats up amid added competition from Mike Jerrell and rookie Ethan Onianwa. Will Nelson make the leap or fall victim to roster cuts?
