Atlanta @ Philadelphia

Team Totals: Falcons 20.5, Eagles 26.5

As if Kirk Cousins’ concerning arm strength and pocket movement were not enough, the 0-1 Falcons travel to Philadelphia on national television then host the defending Super Bowl Champion Chiefs in Week 3. OC Zac Robinson’s play-calling debut was flooded with the pistol offense (48.2%, second) and zero snaps of play action, which Cousins has leveraged for the most touchdowns (69) since 2018; Atlanta shockingly ran the ball at an above-average clip (43.4%, 14th) in neutral game script. Pressured on 39.3% (ninth) of his dropbacks against the Steelers, Kirk’s range of outcomes opposite specimen DTs Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis includes 250 yards with multiple touchdowns or being benched for Michael Penix Jr., who should immediately be stashed in Superflex leagues. There are better options to stream (Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, Daniel Jones) ahead of Cousins in Week 2.Bijan Robinson didn’t miss a beat in handling 88.4% (fifth) of Atlanta’s backfield touches with 100% of their RB targets (5). At first glance, Tyler Allgeier’s standalone role under Robinson is nonexistent with only three carries (and four routes) in the season opener, all which occurred on early downs. Philadelphia’s trenches leaked 5.3 yards per carry (and two 20-yard runs) to Josh Jacobs, keeping Bijan entrenched as a confident RB1.
