5 Points on Week 9 Loss

Weems Runs Wild: Eric Weems had his best game of 2015 by tallying 191 return yards. 41 of those yards came on a second-quarter punt; 50 came on a third-quarter kickoff. Devin Hester has been missed this year, but Weems’ efforts have given the Falcons a quality return threat—one who seldom makes mistakes and is smart enough to let plays develop and give Atlanta solid field position.

Wheeler Breaks Out: Philip Wheeler got his first start as a Falcon with Justin Durant (calf) sidelined, and the former Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket turned in a productive game.
