Impact The hybrid star was extremely inefficient on a yards-per-touch basis, but he still found a way to offer a serviceable fantasy return with his six-yard touchdown run early in the second quarter. Patterson also rewarded fantasy managers rolling him with him on rosters in formats that count return yardage, and despite the fact he's averaged a microscopic 0.6 yards per carry over his last two games, his nose for the end zone always gives him some upside. Patterson's next chance to build on his numbers in what has been a career-best season comes in an unenviable Week 17 road matchup versus the Bills.

Falcons failures near goal line lead to 31-13 loss to 49ers

The game couldn’t have gotten off to a much better start for the Atlanta Falcons who recovered a fumble on the opening kickoff at the 12-yard line

DECEMBER 20, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Stymied in defeat Patterson rushed 11 times for 18 yards and caught both of his targets for five yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the 49ers.

Impact Patterson couldn't break free at any point during the one-sided affair, posting a single-play high of just four yards on his 13 touches. This was the breakout fantasy star's first dud since Week 10, which is a testament to how strong of an offensive asset he has been for both the Falcons and fantasy managers this year. Patterson will carry impressive marks of 1,089 combined yards and 10 total touchdowns into next Sunday's tilt against the Lions.

Falcons finally finding some success with running game

First-year coach Arthur Smith has been adamant that the Atlanta Falcons can run the ball effectively no matter the opponent

DECEMBER 13, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Gets into end zone in win Patterson rushed 16 times for 58 yards and a touchdown and brought in two of five targets for one yard in the Falcons' 29-21 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

Impact The hybrid star found tough sledding on the ground overall against a stingy Panthers front, but he salvaged his fantasy day with a five-yard touchdown run late in the first quarter. Patterson was a non-factor through the air, however, limiting his overall output. The veteran now has three rushing scores over his last three games, and although he did see his streak of multi-catch efforts extend to three Sunday, he hasn't cleared 27 receiving yards over the last four games overall. Patterson's next opportunity to push the Falcons closer to a potential postseason berth comes in a Week 15 road battle against the 49ers.
