Atlanta mustered seven points against the Carolina Panthers last week, opening themselves up to a two-point loss. They turned the ball over twice, adding to their -6 turnover differential. This group averages 18. 4 points per game (26th) and 5. 0 yards per play (22nd), despite plenty of first-round talent.

At home, the Falcons average 23. 3 points per game, so their scoring issues shouldn't hold them back this week. Desmond Ridder is the Atlanta quarterback responsible for most of the team's giveaways, but he's not starting in this one.
