Year-End Superlatives: Most Improved Player
This might be the hardest pick to make. At the mid-point, I chose Corey Peters as my pick. At that point in the year, he was playing his best football and looking like an impact pass rusher and playmaker. But unfortunately for Peters, the second half of the season was relatively quiet and it allowed for other people to be considered.
One obvious choice would be Sean Weatherspoon...

Falcons Defensive Highlight of the Year
Peters gives the stiff arm
Defensive highlights usually don’t get quite as much pub as the offensive ones. But Falcons defenders have made their share of big plays. And it was hard choosing which one was the best of the year.

Falcons Midseason Superlatives
Corey Peters: up and coming
Here are my picks for the Falcons players most deserving of these superlative awards through the first half of the 2011 season:
Offensive MVP: Tony Gonzalez
This was tough because in recent games, Michael Turner is probably the most valuable player on offense. When Turner runs well, the Falcons tend to win. But I thought Gonzo is deserving because he&...
