The Atlanta Falcons outlasted the Buccaneers in week 8. Kirk Cousins led the way with 276 passing yards and threw for 4 touchdown passes. 

Propelling the passing game was Kyle Pitts who had 4 receptions, 91 receiving yards, and 2 touchdown receptions. Pitts 2nd touchdown was eerily close to being a fumble, however replay concluded that Pitts crossed the plane with the football. Kyle Pitts ends National Tight End week as the TE-2. 

In the receiving game, Darnell Mooney led the way with 4 catches for 86 receiving yards and a touchdown reception. His counterpart Drake London had a quiet day with 4 catches for 34 yards. Darnell Mooney ends up as the WR-13 for week 8. Mooney and London both deserve to be in starting lineups in week 9. 

On the ground, Bijan Robinson continues to justify his first round ADP price tag. Bijan ends up being the RB-4 on the week in PPR with 23.6 fantasy points. Tyler Allgeier remains one of the best handcuff running backs, but best left on benches in lineup leagues. 

The Falcons get a juicy matchup versus the Dallas Cowboys at home in week 9. Fire up Falcons players with confidence!
