Sigh.
The Atlanta Falcons played their second divisional match on Sunday, and came out of it with more division losses than they had all of last season.
The loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers—Atlanta’s second of the season—was a carbon copy of that loss to the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football. A lot of fumbles, and some costly red zone turnovers were too much to overcome.
Even with the loss, however, today was the best day for the Falcons from a fantasy football perspective since that Week 4 demolition of the Houston Texans. Here is how the Falcons fared in fantasy in Week 8 against the Bucs, and the outlook heading in the Week 9 contest against the 49ers.
