The Falcons Should Bench Marcus Mariota

The Atlanta Falcons lost to their NFC South rival Carolina Panthers on Thursday Night Football and Marcus Mariota's performance was awful. Despite the fact that the Falcons still have a chance at the playoffs, Ben Maller thinks it's time to give their rookie QB a shot.

Ben Maller: "With 7 games left, let's see what the much ballyhooed Desmond Ridder can do given the opportunity. Let's see what #4 can do. Now he wasn't a top pick, he was a 3rd round pick, but I heard a lot of bullcrap about this guy. Before the season they were pumping him up, so let's allow him to get his feet wet the next game."
