'We're still in the mix': Falcons lose another game but not hope in the jumbled NFC The Falcons fell 30-17 to Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Leonard Fournette - Another big receiving day Fournette rushed 13 times for 45 yards and secured seven of eight targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 30-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Impact Fournette found running room to be mostly at a premium against an active Falcons front, but he once again made an impact through the air. The veteran back tied with Mike Evans for second on the team in receptions and recorded his second receiving touchdown in as many games on a three-yard grab in the first quarter. Fournette's significant role as a receiver complements his fantasy value in games during which he's not as successful on the ground, and he's poised for another heavy overall workload in a Week 14 interconference battle against the Bills.

Mike Evans - Yard short of century mark Evans secured seven of 10 targets for 99 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Impact Chris Godwin stole the spotlight with a 15-143 tally, but Evans turned in an impressive performance by any measure in his own right. The multi-time Pro Bowler checked in second across the board to Godwin on the stat sheet, producing his best reception total since Week 4 and highest yardage tally since Week 5. Evans will have a thorny challenge in a Week 14 home battle against the Bills, although the absence of Tre'Davious White (knee) for Buffalo could help make for a more palatable matchup.

Rob Gronkowski - Pair of scores in win Gronkowski secured four of eight targets for 58 yards and two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 30-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Impact Gronkowski's first two receptions went for scores, with the legendary tight end finding the end zone from 27 and 11 yards out. Gronkowski is now up to six touchdown receptions on the campaign, leaving him with plenty of opportunities to eclipse the eight he garnered with the Patriots in 2017, which is currently his best total of the last five seasons. The big tight end should continue to see an uptick in targets for the duration of Antonio Brown's suspension, and he could have a particularly sizable role in a Week 14 home showdown against a Bills team adept at limiting receiver production.

Chris Godwin - Explodes for 15-catch tally Godwin brought in 15 of 17 targets for 143 yards and rushed once for nine yards in the Buccaneers' 30-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Impact Godwin has had some eye-popping lines before in his now nearly two seasons of working with Tom Brady, but Sunday's performance nevertheless jumped off the page. The fifth-year veteran easily led all pass catchers across the board during what was his fourth 100-yard effort of the campaign, with three of those instances coming in the last six games. Given how Tom Brady frequently distributes targets from week to week, Godwin's breakout performance could well be followed by a much more modest one, but he'll head into an interconference showdown against the Bills in Week 14 with a serious head of steam.

William Gholston - Dealing with leg injury Gholston suffered a right leg injury during Sunday's 30-17 win over the Falcons, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Tom Brady - Spectacular effort in win Brady completed 38 of 51 passes for 368 yards with four touchdowns and one interception in the Buccaneers' 30-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday. He also rushed once for minus-1 yar...
Impact The numbers basically speak to Brady's dominance Sunday, with the future Hall of Famer looking locked in from the start of the game. Brady particularly locked in on Chris Godwin throughout the afternoon, targeting his fifth-year wideout a whopping 17 times and connecting on 15 of those attempts for 143 yards. Somewhat surprisingly, none of Brady's four scoring tosses went to either Godwin or Mike Evans, however, as he connected twice with Rob Gronkowski and once apiece with Leonard Fournette and Cameron Brate. The 22-year veteran now has multiple touchdown passes in seven of the last eight games, a sample that includes four tallies of at least four scoring throws. His next opportunity to continue adding to that impressive stretch comes in a Week 14 home showdown against the Bills.
