FALCONS VS SAINTS – START ‘EM

Calvin Ridley, WR, Atlanta Falcons

I LOVE Calvin Ridley this week. In the two games since tight end Austin Hooper went down, Ridley has scored 24 and 19 fantasy points. He has also seen 22 targets in that time frame.

Consider the fact the Julio Jones could miss this game, or at the very least be less than 100%, and Ridley is my favorite play of the week.

Matt Ryan, QB, Atlanta Falcons

The last time that Matt Ryan has scored less than 16 points against the Saints, I was still in high school. Fun fact, I graduated in 2014.

Matt Ryan is as consistent as it gets, and this could be a high scoring divisional affair, as well as probably the highest scoring game of the day. Play most of your players in this game, but Ryan might have a top five finish.

Ted Ginn, WR, New Orleans Saints

You are already starting Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas. Ted Ginn may not be on your radar right now, but he should be.

Ginn has seen almost five targets a game this year, and the match-up here could warrant a sneaky flex start. The Falcons allow the fourth most points to wide receivers, and Ginn could hit a big play against this secondary to boost his fantasy numbers.
