In the 45th episode of The Bow Tie Chronicles podcast, we discuss the need to add some power to the “Falcons Offense” as coach Dan Quinn called it on local radio this week. He didn’t like it being called “Kyle Shanahan’s” offense. Call it whatever, the Falcons need to stop getting cute in short yardage situations and need to add some power to the attack.

Also, NFL Network draft guru Mike Mayock stops by to discuss some of the University of Georgia players here at the scouting combine.
