The Falcons have turned down an offer to be featured on HBO's
Hard Knocks.
The team apparently had "extensive discussions about appearing on the show at every level of the organization" before declining. The Jets, who were famously featured on the show in 2010, have expressed interest in making another appearance. The Falcons reportedly turned down the offer so they could focus "exclusively on the football field," but each of the past two teams to appear have gone on to make the playoffs.

Matt Ryan is working on building weight-room strength this offseason, in an effort to improve on downfield throws.
The Falcons tried to play vertical ball at times in 2011, but Ryan's arm strength was exposed as only above average. "I’ve been working out pretty hard this offseason to try and put on a little bit of weight to get a little bit stronger," he said. "We need to be more effective with some of our throws down the field and that’s something that I’ve certainly worked on early this offseason."

NFL.com's Jason La Canfora reports the Falcons "plan to explore" a contract extension for Matt Ryan in the coming weeks.
Ryan still has two years left on his rookie contract, but with deals for the league's elite quarterbacks only getting more expensive, the Falcons have little reason to wait until 2014 to lock up their franchise signal caller. Despite being criticized by some for slower than expected development, Ryan posted career highs nearly across the board in 2011. With Julio Jones having a year of experience under his belt and the Falcons expected to improve their run game, Ryan's numbers have nowhere to go but up in 2012.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Mark Bradley believes former coordinator Mike Mularkey "drummed the daring" out of Matt Ryan.
Ryan is coming off a career year from a volume perspective, but his hesitancy to make stick throws into tight windows and take chances down the field was a bugaboo against quality defenses. We had chalked it up to sub-optimal arm strength and a lack of trust in his pass protection. If Mularkey was indeed holding Ryan back, the Falcons may finally win a playoff game in 2012.
