Qadree Ollison Scores On His Only Carry In Week 15

Atlanta Falcons running back Qadree Ollison only received one carry in Week 15 against the 49ers, but he made the most of it.

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 15

Week 14 was a boring one on Tank Street, with all of the crowd favorites managing to take care of business and keep on losing.

Avoid The Falcons Defense In Week 15

The Falcons Defense faces an extremely tough task in Week 15. They're up against a 49ers team that has put up 36-or-more points in three of the past four weeks. The only time they were held under that number was against the Ravens. Needless to say, the Falcons don't have quite as formidable of a […]

Keep Rolling With Younghoe Koo In Week 15

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo has certainly risen to the occasion since joining the team in November. He's hit 16 of his 18 field goal attempts on the year, with three made field goals in four of the five games he's played with the Falcons. This week, the Falcons face the 49ers and both teams […]

Russell Gage Is A Solid PPR Start In Week 15

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage should see his role increase going forward with Calvin Ridley (abdominal) out for the year.

Julio Jones (shoulder) and Devonta Freeman (ankle) have been dealing with […]

Olamide Zaccheaus Too Risky To Start In Week 15

Atlanta Falcons rookie wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus made waves with his first NFL catch last week. It went for 93 yards and a touchdown. Unfortunately, it was his only catch of the game.

Austin Hooper Is A Must-Start TE In Week 15

Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper has had an absolutely exceptional season with 58 catches for 640 yards and six touchdowns over 10 games.

Julio Jones Is A Must-Start If He's Active

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (shoulder) has been limited in practice this week and is currently questionable for Week 15 against the 49ers. It was recently announced that Jones's teammate and fellow wide receiver Calvin Ridley (abdominal) would miss the rest of the season. So now, Jones figures to see an even heavier workload […]

Qadree Ollison Too Risky To Consider In Week 15

Atlanta Falcons running back Qadree Ollison is currently third on the team's depth chart behind Devonta Freeman (ankle) and Brian Hill.
