There was no team more successful last season in the NFL than the Atlanta Falcons.

I know they didn't win the Super Bowl or even get past the first round of the playoffs, but after what they went through in Michael Vick fiasco the Falcons looked like they would be the worst team in the NFL for quite some time.

After Atlanta drafted Matt Ryan sky was the limit for the Falcons. They added running back Michael Turner and a superstar wide receiver emerged in Roddy White.

There honestly weren't many flaws in the Falcons game plan last season, but any team in the NFL will be willing to upgrade their defense if they get the chance and that is exactly what the Falcons were able to do by signing linebacker Mike Peterson. He may not be a Ray Lewis game changer, but he is definitely an upgrade for an already great football team.
