↑Kaleb McGary↑

The Atlanta Falcons’ most improved player this year has certainly been Kaleb McGary. He has been a bulldozer in the run game and much better as a pass blocker.

On Sunday, he was running Cardinals players over. There were numerous replays that showed McGary would push his guy to the ground and then fall right on top of him. He has been so much fun to watch.

↓Olamide Zaccheaus↓

Ever since the Atlanta Falcons benched Marcus Mariota, Olamide Zaccheaus has all but disappeared. There is absolutely no chemistry between the rookie quarterback and OZ.

It has been disappointing because he is a great player. Who knows if the Falcons will bring him back for next season but if they do, then Ridder and OZ need to put a lot of work in together in the offseason.
