The Atlanta Falcons new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson and defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake spoke to the media for the first time on Wednesday. Host Aaron Freeman and guest Jarvis Davis (@LockedOnATL) break down their biggest takeaways including the news that the defense will be reverting back to a 3-4 defensive front under Lake. They discuss how that scheme change will help young players like Arnold Ebiketie, DeAngelo Malone, Zach Harrison, but may hurt veterans like Grady Jarrett and David Onyemata.

They also discuss the team's need to bolster their depth along the interior of the defensive line and whether or not the draft or free agency is the best avenue to do so. Later, they break down Robinson's comments about the team's need at quarterback and whether soon-to-be-traded Chicago Bears passer Justin Fields, or some other player best fits the role.
