HR3 - Falcons goes from good to great this season by improving their run defense
In hour three Mike Johnson, Ali Mac, and Beau Morgan quickly touch on some of the biggest headlines around the local and national sports scene, continue to talk about some goals they would like to see the Atlanta Falcons defense hit this season, talk about how many rushing yards per game the Falcons defense should be giving up this season to be legit postseason contenders, and explain why they think the Falcons must improve their run defense and give up about 10 less rushing yards per game if they want to have a legit chance at being a playoff team. Then, Mike, Ali, and Beau spend some time with 92.9 The Game's own Atlanta Braves insider and reporter, Grant McAuley! Mike, Ali, and Grant discuss if there should be any concerns about the Braves not being able to secure series sweeps more times than not this season, why the Braves weren’t able to get the offense going against Chad Dallas and the rest of the Blue Jays pitching staff last night, what the relationship between Mauricio Dubón and Chipper Jones is like, how Grant feels about the rumors that Detroit Tigers star starting pitcher Tarik Skubal could be a trade target for the Atlanta Braves, if the Braves would try to re-sign Tarik Skubal to a long-term deal if they were to trade for him, and if Braves Manager Walt Weiss is waiting for Braves shortstop Ha-Seong Kim to get hot with the plate appearances that he’s giving him or if Walt is going to have Kim share the time at shortstop with Mauricio Dubón and Jorge Mateo more down the stretch of the season. The Morning Shift crew also explains why they think the Falcons defense created turnovers last season better than people remember, and then closes out hour three by answering people’s questions about anything in the Morning Mailbag!
