Russell Gage - Week 10 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage should be considered a flex play in Week 10.

Cordarrelle Patterson - Week 10 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson is a high-end RB2 against the Cowboys in Week 10.

Overall, Patterson has high […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

This was one of those "fun" weeks where all the heavy favorites inexplicably lose and things go the opposite of how everyone expected.

Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 9... what an absolute cluster. The Buffalo Bills lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars, 9–6. The Broncos went and punched the Cowboys in the mouth and the Cowboys didn't even bother to put up a fight. It was quite the week so it only made sense that after a week of championing Greg Joseph and […]

Tajae Sharpe Hauls In Just One Pass

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Tajae Sharpe caught just one pass for 12 yards in Sunday's 27-25 win over New Orleans.

The 26-year-old is too up-and-down […]

Russell Gage Tallies Season-High Seven Receptions

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage produced a solid effort in Sunday's win over the Saints. Gage tallied a season-high seven receptions on eight targets, placing second on the team with 64 yards.

Olamide Zaccheaus Finds The End Zone Twice

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus tallied just three receptions but made them count in Sunday's 27-25 win over the Saints.

Cordarrelle Patterson Excels As Receiver In Sunday's Win

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson struggled as a ball-carrier but found success in the passing game in Sunday's win over the Saints.

Mike Davis Stymied By Saints

Atlanta Falcons running back Mike Davis was held in check in a Week 9 win over the Saints. Davis had no room to run against a tough Saints' front, as he totaled just 13 rushing yards on nine attempts while hauling in one pass for five receiving yards. The 28-year-old halfback has been held to […]

Matt Ryan Throws For 343 Yards, Scores Three Touchdowns

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan completed 22 of 30 passes for 343 yards with two touchdowns through the air and one on the ground in a 27-25 win over the Saints.
