'Falcons vs. Buccaneers: Week 7 Start Time, Date, and Predictions'

"White may have to be in your lineup, but try to look elsewhere if you can. Desmond Ridder has thrown the ball at least 31 times in each of their last five games. Kyle Pitts trailed only London in targets while finding the end zone for the first time this year. Lavonte David did a nice job of limiting LaPorta last week, so it's a tougher matchup. Mike Evans was a tipped ball away from what would've been a massive play to open the game."

In the realm of fantasy football, it's not often that we find ourselves truly excited about a player like White. This is primarily due to the fact that the opposing team's run defense is typically quite formidable. The Atlanta Falcons are no exception to this rule, as they currently rank ninth in DVOA, 11th in rushing yards per attempt allowed, and boast the top rush EPA per play on defense. Given these circumstances, it may be a challenging week for White, and if possible, it would be wise to explore other options for your lineup.

Desmond Ridder, the quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals, has thrown the ball at least 31 times in each of their last five games. While Ridder's performance last week resulted in three turnovers and put the team in a difficult position, their defense remains solid overall. However, as long as opposing teams continue to score, the Bengals will need to rely on a heavy passing game. This has translated into significant success for their receiver, London, who caught nine passes for 125 yards in their most recent game. With Ridder averaging over 300 yards and 30 attempts per game, London has solidified his spot within the top 24 receivers.

Moving on to Kyle Pitts, the tight end for the Atlanta Falcons, he was second only to London in terms of targets in their previous game. Pitts also managed to find the end zone for the first time this season. Jonnu Smith, another tight end for the Falcons, also scored and remains a part of the team's offensive strategy. While Lavonte David did a commendable job of limiting LaPorta's performance last week, this may have a greater impact on Smith than Pitts, considering their respective positions on the field.

The increased passing volume in the Bengals' offense has also contributed to the success of Robinson, their running back. He ran 45 routes and received eight targets, which has led to Tyler Allgeier seeing more action on the ground. Robinson dominated the snaps and finished the game with a total of 18 touches, making it difficult to be disappointed with his performance. He currently ranks within the top 12 running backs, although the upcoming matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers poses a greater challenge. Allgeier is also worth considering as a flex option, as he is guaranteed to receive at least 10 touches.

Shifting our focus to the wide receivers of the Buccaneers, Mike Evans had a near-miss with a potential game-changing play in their last game. Unfortunately, the pass was intercepted and returned for a touchdown, which accurately reflects the overall performance of the Tampa Bay team that day. The inability to connect with Evans was a significant issue, as he only caught 40% of his targets, although it is important to note that not all of these missed connections were his fault. On the other hand, Chris Godwin had a decent day, securing back-to-back top-30 finishes. He faces a favorable matchup this week against the Falcons, who possess stronger cornerbacks. As a result, Godwin ranks within the top 36 receivers, with Evans ahead of him in the top 30, as he prepares to face A.J. Terrell.
