This Thursday
http://www.falconsfootballauthentics.com/julio-jones-jersey-authentic , the Falconsoffense was embarrassing. They had great momentum to begin with, getting into the red zone on their very first drive, and then everything went downhill from there. So, what does the team do about it?Yes, he caught 10 passes for 169 yards, but the Falcons only put up 12 points. There’s a way Atlanta can use Julio Jones to their advantage and put up points.Think back to ShannyIn 2016, as we all know, Kyle Shanahan was the team’s offensive coordinator and Matt Ryan had a record breaking 38 touchdowns to 13 different receivers. How does this happen, and how can the team bring back that level of play? I’ll tell you.Here’s the planThe trick is to set the tone with Julio early, by allowing him to be a speed demon early on. When he has a wide open field to work with, he’s especially dangerous. Then, when you get inside the twenty, double coverage is already on Julio, possibly a safety back, simply because he had just put up a 65 yard play action pass up your throat and the defense is worried. Take this Thursday for example. The Falcons started feeding Julio the ball in the open field and eventually in the red zone, but it got to the point where the Eagles were expecting that outcome, and it’s a lot easier to hold Julio in check in the red zone. The Falcons need to do more to use confusion to their advantage and utilize other playmakers. We need to always leave defenses guessing, in other words. But if not Julio, who is the ball going to in the red zone? A guy like Austin Hooper. Feed a tight end the ball when all focus is on Julio

The Falcons ALWAYS need Julio in red zone packages because not only can we use him as a receiver, but they can use him as a threat, and if receivers are spread out and teams have to account for Julio, he’s potent even if he’s not getting the ball. That’s the difference between Kyle Shanahan and Steve Sarkisian, in my eyes. Sarkisian has the most vanilla offense I have seen in a while. Three straight bunch formations in the end zone isn’t clever and won’t cut it, both because it’s expected and it doesn’t allow receiving options room to move. The reason the Philly special eats teams up is because of its unpredictable nature. You think a zone run to the strong side on third down is unpredictable? I don’t. This isn’t college anymore. Just because somebody is fast, doesn’t mean they can torch the entire defense, because they’re not playing against an Oregon State defense, for example. This is the NFL and for some reason, Sark has yet to realize that, especially in the red zone. The transition from college to NFL is rarely successful, which is why Nick Saban had a very short tenure in the bigs. It doesn’t work. And for this, Sark isn’t the guy in my eyes. His presence is seemingly wasting talent we have on offense because the ball is continuously forced. Now granted, Julio can do anything, and in a sense, I understand forcing the ball to Julio. But, if you can get yards but not touchdowns, it’s pointless. For this reason, Julio has never been a huge touchdown guy

As you could tell by the end of the game on Thursday, they don’t always work, and ESPECIALLY not when the game is on the line. The Falcons need more creativity, more movement, and need to spread their weapons out more. Heck, hit Julio Jones on a deep post against a safety, who would then be single high because we would have Mo on the right side pulling the second safety with him, leaving the long-mid open. That’s all it takes to work this offense, because you have Julio Jones. You can line him up inside and watch the chaos happen. Red zone gameplanIn the red zone, I always want to see Julio and Hooper or Saubert together. The Falcons can use swings and fakes and movementuntil they get the results they want if they’re using their personnel correctly. If we find a way to create a slant-rub concept for Hooper to go right and Julio to go left after a fake pitch to Teco towards the left, Julio would be running behind the defense and should realistically be wide open across the goal line, at least until they catch on. Matt Ryan’s job is to sell the fakes and complete the passes. It’s all about creativity. ConclusionWe need to take advantage of the best principles of a West Coast offense because we have too many passing options not to utilize them. Sark needs to turn the vanilla offense into a chocolate, strawberry, vanilla and cookies and cream offense. Variety, Sark. Enough with the draws on third down, throw in a bootleg, channel a little classic and aggressive Shanahan. If this offense doesn’t become more fast paced and aggressive soon, we’ve got a problem, and the scrutiny will stay on Sarkisian.Atlanta Falcons fantasy stud and dud from Week 4 Another gut-punch loss suffered
Atlanta Falcons Hats , after the offense once again did more than enough to win a football game. Since 1940, there have been only four instances of an NFL team scoring 36+ points at home without committing a turnover and still losing — half of those losses belong to the Atlanta Falcons, last week and this week.We have a lot of great content analyzing the game here at The Falcoholic, but in this article, we’ll look at things strictly from a fantasy football perspective. Let’s look at Atlanta’s top fantasy performer and biggest fantasy disappointment from Week 4’s defeat against the Cincinnati Bengals.Fantasy Stud/Dud 2018 History:Past Studs: Julio Jones (1), Matt Ryan (1), Calvin Ridley (1)Past Duds: Devonta Freeman (1), Mohamed Sanu (1), Atlanta D/ST (1)Stud - Matt RyanStat Line: 419 passing yards, 3 passing touchdowns,0 interceptions, 2 carries, 5 rushing yards: 29.26 standard league/PPR pointsMatt Ryan looks reborn in year two under Steve Sarkisian, in comparison to last season and minus that first effort. He’s been an absolute general, leading a well-oiled offensive machine up and down the field nearly every time he’s touched the ball the past three weeks.Ryan was once again brilliant on Sunday, throwing for 419 yards (a season high) and three touchdown passes — two of which were to rookie sensation Calvin Ridley, who deserves an honorable mention shoutout in the column this week. Ryan did everything necessary to win this game, but was yet again betrayed by his defense.The Boston College product has entered must-start territory in season-long fantasy football leagues. This is beginning to look like a reincarnation of the 2016 Falcons offense, and even if that doesn’t lead to real life wins due to the defense

I thought that, with how much the Bengals have struggled in covering TEs, Hooper would be a good start, but he wasn’t. The Stanford product only had one catch, and while it did go for a crucial first down conversion on third and long, fantasy owners who started him were burned.Ryan didn’t look Hooper’s way very much at all in this one. The one catch also meant disappointment in PPR leagues, where light yardage can sometimes be overcome. Unfortunately for Hooper, backup TE Logan Paulsen scavenged an early touchdown with his only catch of the game.Austin Hooper is a sporadic fantasy option, who will have his moments at times this season; those moments will have some poor outings mixed in, however. It’ll be difficult to predict how well Hooper will do in any given week, making him more and more of a blindfolded dart throw.
