Atlanta D/ST Viable in Expected Low-Scoring Matchup Vs. Saints

The Atlanta Falcons defense/special teams gets a favorable matchup in Week 12 against the Saints, an offense that has provided the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing defenses through 11 weeks of the season. Saints quarterback Tyler Shough has thrown a couple of picks during his two and a half games played, but it is the […]


KhaDarel Hodge Could See More Volume in Week 12

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge could be in line for a bump in volume in Week 12 against the Saints as Drake London (knee) is sidelined due to injury, with London's double-digit target volume up for grabs. The team's other back-end receiving options, David Sills V and Casey Washington, will also be vying for targets, but […]


Kirk Cousins a Low-End QB2 in Road Matchup Against the Saints

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins will make his second start of the season on the road in Week 12 against the Saints, with the team losing Michael Penix Jr. (knee) to injury for the rest of the year. The 37-year-old started the team's Week 8 contest against the Dolphins, but unsurprisingly looked rusty, completing 21 […]


Tyler Allgeier Remains a Touchdown-Dependent Flex Option in Week 12

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier notched his seventh touchdown in 10 games last week despite totaling just 16 yards from scrimmage (three rushes for 10 yards, two catches for six yards). The touchdowns have made the 25-year-old fantasy relevant this year, but as frequent as they've become, he still owns an extremely low floor, […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. a Low-Floor TE1 With QB Change

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. had a quiet Week 11 with three targets and two catches for 38 yards, but he could be in line for more work in Week 12 against the Saints. Averaging over six targets, four catches, and 43 yards per game in 2025, the 25-year-old could see a couple […]


Darnell Mooney Back on Fantasy Radar as WR3 in Week 12

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney has missed two games this season due to injury and has just 16 catches for 224 scoreless yards in the eight contests he's played in, but heads into Week 12 in a prime position to jump back into fantasy relevance. The 28-year-old goes into the weekend without an injury […]


Bijan Robinson a Top-Tier RB1 Despite Challenging Offensive Environment

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns in Week 11, adding four catches for 39 yards. It ended a three-week stretch in which the 23-year-old did not go over 100 yards from scrimmage or score a touchdown, but he's still averaging over 78 rush yards and over four catches […]

Jarod's 7 Early Fantasy Baseball Bold Predictions - 2026 Player Outlooks

The postseason just ended, but it's never too early to start thinking about next season. The winter meetings haven't even started yet, so there are still lots of names who could be in new homes by the time spring training rolls around, perhaps including one of the names below. While there will be plenty of […]


Will Kyle Pitts Sr. be More Involved in Week 12?

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. logged his second straight two-catch performance in Week 11's 30-27 overtime loss to the Panthers after catching at least three passes in each of his first eight games of the season. It would seem his involvement is trending downward, however, wide receiver Drake London (knee) will likely miss Week 12, which […]


Atlanta D/ST on the Streaming Radar Against the Panthers

The Atlanta Falcons defense/special teams has an enticing matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 11, an offense that has yielded the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing defenses so far this season. Despite allowing 31 points last week, Atlanta tallied one interception and one fumble recovery, along with a whopping seven sacks, now with 13 […]


Tyler Allgeier Back in Flex Territory in Week 11 Against the Panthers

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier continues to put himself in the Flex conversation after scoring his fifth and sixth rushing touchdowns of the season last week. In games where Atlanta remains competitive, the 25-year-old tends to stay involved, and Week 11's matchup against the Panthers should be one of those games despite losing to […]


Darnell Mooney a Dicey WR4/Flex Play in Week 11

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney will be hard to trust for fantasy in Week 11 after registering his fourth one-catch performance in his last five games last week. On the bright side, he drew eight targets in last week's loss, which was just as many as No. 1 wideout Drake London (illness/back). Drops (now […]


Michael Penix Jr. Barely on the QB2 Radar in Week 11

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. completed just 12 of 28 passes in Week 10 for 177 yards, leaving him with a lowly 58.8 percent completion rate for the season. However, it was the fifth straight game with a touchdown pass, giving him an 8:1 TD:INT over that stretch. While the latter stat is notable, […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. a Low-End TE1 With Upside in Week 11

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. is coming off a two-catch performance for 38 scoreless yards in Week 10, but despite that poor outing, the 25-year-old is still averaging over six targets and five catches for 46 yards per game this year. Unfortunately, he's recorded just one touchdown on the season, but that type of volume […]


Drake London Looks to Keep Rolling in Week 11 Versus Panthers

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (illness/back) hauled in six of eight targets for 104 yards and a touchdown in Week 10, making it the fourth time in his last five games that he went over the century mark, and he totaled six TD receptions in those five contests. The 6-foot-4 wideout is his quarterback's favorite […]


Bijan Robinson a High-End RB1 in Rematch Against Carolina

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson has had at least 86 yards from scrimmage in eight of nine games he's played so far this season and is averaging almost five catches per contest, but he has been stuck on four touchdowns (two rushing, two receiving) since last finding paydirt in Week 7. Week 11 brings […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. Drops the Ball for Fantasy Managers in Week 10

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. managed just two catches for 38 yards in Week 10's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts, but the stat line doesn't tell the whole story. The 25-year-old was targeted a solid five times in the contest, and one of them could have gone for at least a 20-yard […]


Michael Penix Jr.'s Completion Woes Continue in Week 10 Loss

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr.'s accuracy went kaput in Germany, completing just 12 of his 28 pass attempts for 177 yards in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts, which included one touchdown pass and no interceptions. However, he also lost a fumble and was sacked three times. The 25-year-old came into the contest […]


Bijan Robinson has Touchdowns Vultured in Week 10

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson rushed 17 times for 84 yards in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts, adding two catches for four yards in the contest. It was the third straight week without a touchdown, though, currently sitting with two rushing and two receiving scores on the season. Fellow running back Tyler Allgeier scored […]


Atlanta D/ST Draws Tough Matchup Against High-Flying Colts Offense

The Atlanta Falcons defense/special teams recorded six sacks for the second time this season in Week 9's 24-23 loss to the Patriots, and also tallied an interception and a fumble recovery. They've been stout against the pass thus far, allowing the lowest yards per game passing of any team in the NFL (158.1 YPG), but […]


Zane Gonzalez Debuts as Low-End Kicking Option in Week 10

Atlanta Falcons kicker Zane Gonzalez will make his season debut on Sunday in Germany in a matchup against the Colts. The 30-year-old last played for Washington in 2024, which included six regular-season games and all three of the team's postseason contests. In all, Gonzalez was 12-for-15 on field goal attempts and 27-for-27 on extra points. […]


Darnell Mooney a Low-Floor WR4 in Week 10 Against Colts

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney will look to get involved in the offense on Sunday in Berlin, Germany, after registering his third one-catch performance in his last four games last week. There isn't much working in the 28-year-old's favor, however, as he's become an afterthought with Drake London (29.5 percent), Kyle Pitts Sr. (20.7), and […]


Tyler Allgeier a Risky Flex Play in Potentially Poor Game Script

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier was a non-factor last week after the Falcons got down early, recording just two rushes for six yards. The 25-year-old now has 11 rushes for 30 yards and one touchdown in the team's last four losses, compared to 42 rushes for 159 yards and three touchdowns in their three […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. a Solid TE1 in Week 10 Matchup Against Colts

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. is seeing consistent looks in this offense in 2025, averaging over six targets, five catches, and 47 yards per game this season. Unfortunately, it has yet to translate to touchdowns, as the 25-year-old has recorded just one score on the year. That could change this weekend, as Week […]


Michael Penix Jr. a Mid-Range QB2 for Matchup With Colts in Germany

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. appears to be rounding into form after a slow, inconsistent start to the season, now with a touchdown pass in four straight games and a 7:1 TD:INT over that span. While that's a positive, the 25-year-old is completing just 60.8 percent of his passes, which is the fourth-lowest mark in […]


Drake London Trending Up in Matchup With Colts in Germany

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London is coming off his biggest game of the season, catching nine of his 14 targets for 118 yards and three touchdowns. After being held scoreless over the first three games of the season, he's now recorded a touchdown catch and gone over 100 yards receiving in three of his […]


Bijan Robinson Remains a Top Option at Running Back in Week 10

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson will go up against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday in Germany. The 23-year-old has just four total touchdowns on the season (two rush, two receiving), but still stands as the sixth-most productive running back for fantasy in half-point PPR formats due to his involvement in both the running and […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. Held Scoreless Again, but is a Breakout Game Coming?

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. drew another seven targets in Week 9's 24-23 loss to the Patriots, converting them into four catches for 38 yards. While his continued involvement in the passing attack has been a welcome change compared to the underwhelming production of the past few seasons, it hasn't amounted to much […]


Has Darnell Mooney Been Phased Out of Atlanta's Offense?

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney was a non-factor again in Week 9's 24-23 loss to the Patriots, earning just two targets, which resulted in one catch for 15 yards. It was the second straight game with one reception and the third time this season. The 28-year-old played every single offensive snap on Sunday, so […]


Bijan Robinson Continues to Rack Up the Receptions

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson logged just 12 carries for 46 yards in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Patriots as the team got behind early and all but abandoned the run. However, as has been the case all season, Robinson continued to be heavily involved in the passing attack, drawing 10 targets from quarterback Michael Penix […]
