Perfect in loss Koo converted all three of his field-goal attempts during Saturday's 17-9 loss to the Ravens.
Impact Koo put the Falcons on the board with a 32-yard field goal to end the first half, cutting Baltimore's lead to 14-3. He added a 34-yard field goal in the third quarter and a 37-yarder in the fourth, marking the fifth time that he's made at least three field goals in a game this season. Koo clearly benefitted Saturday from Desmond Ridder's struggles in the red zone, but the kicker's overall potential moving forward has to be limited given the Falcons have failed to score 20 or more points in six of their last seven matchups.

Quiet outing in loss Koo connected on his lone field-goal attempt and only point-after try during Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Saints.
Impact Koo opened the scoring for the Falcons with a 28-yard field goal in the second quarter. He added an extra point following Tyler Allgeier's five-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, but Koo stayed on the sidelines after Cordarrelle Patterson's score in the fourth, as Atlanta opted to go for a two-point conversion to cut New Orleans' lead to three. Across 14 appearances, Koo is 24 of 29 on field-goal attempts, with four of his misses coming from beyond 50 yards.

Nails two long field goals in loss Koo connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and made his lone point-after try during Sunday's 19-16 loss to Pittsburgh.
Impact Koo put the Falcons on the board with a 50-yard field goal in the second quarter and added a 51-yard make on the Falcons' next offensive drive. He also connected on a 28-yard chip shot to cut Atlanta's lead to 19-16 in the fourth quarter. Coming into the contest, Koo was just 4-8 on field-goal attempts from beyond 50 yards, so connecting on two of them in one game is certainly a major confidence boost for the fifth-year kicker.

Misses another 50-plus yarder Koo converted two of three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Sunday's 19-13 loss to Washington.
Impact Koo opened the scoring with a 47-yard field goal to cap off Atlanta's opening offensive drive. He added his lone extra point before missing a 58-yard attempt at the end of the first half. However, the fifth-year kicker bounced back by connecting on a 48-yarder in the third quarter. Koo's missed a career-high five field goals this season, but four of those have come from beyond 50 yards.

Gives ATL late lead Koo made both of his field-goal attempts and all three of his point-after tries during Sunday's 27-24 win over the Bears.
Impact Koo tied the game at 17 with a 40-yard field goal as time expired in the first half and gave Atlanta a 27-24 lead with a 53-yard boot with under two minutes left to go in regulation. It was certainly a bounce-back performance for the 28-year after he missed his first two extra-point tries of the season during last Thursday's loss to the Panthers. Koo is 18 for 22 on field-goal tries this season, but all four of his misses have come from beyond 40 yards, including three misfires from at least 50 yards.

Misses both PAT tries Thursday Koo made his only field-goal attempt but missed both of his extra-point tries during Thursday's 25-15 loss to the Panthers.
Impact It wasn't a night to remember by any means for Koo, who missed both of his extra-point attempts during Thursday's contest in Carolina. However, the 28-year-old kicker knocked down his lone field-goal try from 33 yards out, just four days after he failed to sink a 50-yarder. Given that the Falcons played on Thursday, Koo now gets some extra time off to prepare for the team's Week 11 matchup versus Chicago.

Misses 50-yard attempt in loss Koo converted one of two field-goal attempts and both of his point-after tries during Sunday's 20-17 loss against the Chargers.
Impact Koo gave the Falcons a 10-0 lead at the end of the first quarter with a 29-yard field goal and went on to make both of his extra-point tries before missing a 50-yard attempt wide right at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Through nine games, the kicker has missed just three kicks, all three of which were beyond 40 yards -- including two from 50-plus. Koo remains one of the more consistent kickers in the league, but his overall fantasy production has been limited by Atlanta's offense, which has scored fewer than 20 points in three of the past five weeks.
