  • Before missing last week, Penix was averaging 268 and a score over his previous 3 games. Those were arguably 3 of his 4 best games and since week 2, opposing QBs are averaging 196 yards and 1.3 scores. Getting Christian Gonzalez back helped a ton.

WR24 Drake London 11 5.82 9.45 76.45 0.55 99%
B
  • Was a late scratch last week after realizing he'd have to catch passes from Kirk Cousins
  • This week gets a middle of the road pass D that has allowed the 4th most explosive plays, granted 13 of those 28 were in the first 2 weeks. London averages over 10 targets per game to the tune of 6 catches for 78 yards
  • The way to get to the Pats is through the air and not on the ground. As 6 point dogs, game script could be in London's favor and add that backs can't run on the Pats may lead to even more work.
  • He will get Christian Gonzalez and likely in some shadow coverage. He's allowing about 35 scoreless yards in his coverage since returning in week 4
WR79 Darnell Mooney 14 2.07 4.64 30.21 0.07 54%
  • Even without London, Khadarel Hodge was the beneficiary and Mooney did nothing and his target share remained low at 13%

TE3 Kyle Pitts Sr. 16 5.13 6.81 54.38 0.31 92%
B
  • Has over a 30% target share over the last two weeks
  • 19 targets over that span, and has put up 13+ fantasy points in 3 of 4 and the one he didn't was a bottom 5 matchup for TEs
  • This week he gets the 4th easiest matchup against in a Pats team allowing the 4th most receptions and 6th most yards to the position and just let the Browns duo to tally 10 for 101 and 2 scores on them last week.

RB3 Bijan Robinson 16 17 90.31 0.44 4.75 6.25 50.63 0.25 100%
A
  • Pats are the first team since 1950 to not allow a single running back over 50 rushing yards in a game over their first 8 games of a season - Mike Reiss
  • It's a great stat, but Achance had 30, but 122 total when you add recieving, Warren had 90 total, Kamara 76, in the last 3 games CLE backs had 9 catches, ten backs had 9 catches, NO backs had 6, MIA had 11.
  • 2nd most receptions, 6th most recieving yards, 2nd fewest attempts, yards, scores rushing to go along with a staggering 3.04 YPC
RB33 Tyler Allgeier 16 8.5 31.13 0.5 0.81 0.88 5.81 0 35%
  • Allgeier saved my TACOM last week with a score, after the game script magically had the 1 win Dolphins blowing them out instead of the other way around. This matchup is exponentially tougher and he's still dinged up.

QB2 Drake Maye 16 16 21.25 29.63 262.69 1.88 0.5 6.13 25.56 0.25 97%
B
  • Last Week Tua went off on this Falcons Pass D that was ranked top 2 in several categories and had only given up 7 passing scores all year
  • Now they are ranked 3rd in most categories. A deeper dig shows that not only Tua last week, but Mayfield had 3 scores and Josh Allen had 2 scores. Maye is playing at a very high level. All of this said, no QB has thrown for more than 205 yards on the Falcons. The scores have to be there.
  • Maye has 4 games of multiple scores, but also 4 of 0 or 1 score. He has several games in the low 200s for yards as well so i'm only getting to a B here
  • League leader in catchable ball rate at 83%

WR22 Stefon Diggs 16 5.13 6.19 60.63 0.25 93%
C
  • Double digit fantasy days in 4 of 5, even it what could have been a dud last week, scored, and profiles closer to the few WRs who have performed well against the Falcons.
WR44 Kayshon Boutte 13 2.38 3.23 40.54 0.46 18%
C
  • Has been over 55 yards in each of his last 3 games and scored in all 3. Only 3 WRs have topped 60 yards against the Falcons, all 3 took 6+ targets. Egbuka, Waddle, Deebo. Those 3 also accounted for 4 of the only 6 WR scores against the Falcons.
  • Only had 2 targets a week ago but scored, sandwiched by some big games but hasn't hit that 6 target mark since week 1. He's been effective on his targets though
WR57 Mack Hollins 15 3.07 4.33 36.67 0.13 4%
  • Showed out last week with his only game over 7 fantasy points to lead the team in catches and yards, but the matchup might be a bit two tough to support him here again

TE6 Hunter Henry 16 3.44 5.13 44.5 0.44 70%
  • Henry scored on national TE day, but that 7 yarder was his only catch and he hasn't been startable in fantasy for over a month.
  • Atlanta boasts the top D vs fantasy TEs allowing the fewest receptions, yards, and scores to the position. The one score was Dawson Knox's only catch of that game with Kincaid out. The top yardage day the Falcons have allowed is 21 scoreless yards.

RB20 TreVeyon Henderson 16 10.44 53.63 0.44 2.19 2.63 13.81 0.06 95%
  • Despite more production last week, hasn't had a target in the last 2 games and it was still only 14 snaps
  • Weird game in that He got the 2nd and 3rd carries of the game going for 12 and 18 yards. His next carry was late 2nd for -2, then final 7 in 2nd half.
  • Even if clearly running well, and early, they stuck with Stevenson.
  • Terrell Jennings if Stevenson doesn't go
  • Atlanta, has been more susceptible to the run than the pass. Over the last 5 weeks, backs are averaging 157 yards and more than a score a game vs the Falcons with the lead back averaging 102.
RB31 Rhamondre Stevenson 13 9.46 36.31 0.38 2.31 2.69 24.85 0.08 77%
C
  • Outsnapped Henderson 50-14, but Henderson had 10 carries on those 14 snaps. Had RB opportunity split of 16-10.
  • Last week showed, even when Henderson is running better, they'll keep going to Stevenson
  • Atlanta, has been more susceptible to the run than the pass. Over the last 5 weeks, backs are averaging 157 yards and more than a score a game vs the Falcons with the lead back averaging 102.
  • Unfortunately, Stevenson himself is averaging less than 60 yards per game and there is at least some split going on ceding 40% of his touches to other backs.
  • Being 6 point favorites may help add a little volume
