Falcons Future Looking Peachy: Bijan Robinson, Drake London Roll Out Big Fantasy Football Outings

In today's Fantasy Life Newsletter, presented by Fire TV.

Published

The only thing worse than Michael Penix’s first drive of the NFL season ending in an interception was Penix almost fumbling during his third drive of the game. Lucky for Atlanta, it was ruled as intentional grounding. The officials determined Penix's intent was to not fumble, I suppose.

But despite Penix's troubles at the start, Atlanta eventually shook off the new-QB nerves and led by 10 at the half. And in a weird turn of events, it was Jordan Love who eventually imploded on the field as the Falcons pulled off the win in Lambeau Field (35-14). 

Sheesh. Atlanta turned its season around so quickly that even those dudes who drafted the wrong B. Robinson got to celebrate. No, really. 

  • Brian Robinson: 10-50-1
  • Bijan Robinson: 29-194-2
  • Michael Penix: 18-256-1
  • Drake London: 9-194-0
  • Kyle Pitts: Sorry. The TD went to TE Austin Hooper. 

Talk about an upset. Green Bay fans in the stands were even checking their pulse to see if they were still

If you’re wanting the "too long, didn't read” version for watercooler fodder:

  • ATL D/ST: pretty good (blocked field goal, stopped GB)
  • Bijan Robinson: Superman mode (Richard Sherman even called him an alien at the half)
  • Drake London: He’s baaaack
  • GB’s Punter: really, really,really busy
WHO DOES MATTHEW LOVE/HATE IN WEEK 3?
