Aaron reviews the Pro Football Focus grades from the Atlanta Falcons' Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers, discussing Matt Ryan's performance, the play of the offensive line, and if the team's receivers are better than they are often credited as.

He discusses two missed opportunities by Ryan that led to his performance against Carolina being undersold, then discusses the causes behind the various grades for Kaleb McGary, Chris Lindstrom, Jalen Mayfield. He focuses on whether Mayfield's best game to date indicates he's turned a corner. Then, he looks at PFF's Yards Per Route Run metric to discuss whether or not Russell Gage, Kyle Pitts, and Cordarrelle Patterson form a better-than-average trio of weapons for Ryan to throw to, and if lack of talent is really a problem.

Finally, he discusses the season-ending injury to safety Erik Harris (pectoral) and what's next for him and the Falcons safety group for the remainder of 2021 and beyond.
