2. Kyle Pitts finally has a breakout game this season

Headed into the year it would have been concerning and shocking to know Pitts is seven games into the season and has been healthy but unable to put together one big game. Kyle has 178-yards on the season with a single touchdown, numbers headed into the year many believed he was capable of putting up in a single game.

For those watching the Atlanta Falcons every week, however, they understand the passing situation with Mariota and the impact Pitts is having blocking and taking attention away from Olamide and rookie Drake London.

Pitts is having a good season even if it isn’t in the way many expected. This week, however, that is going to change with Pitts giving a nightmare matchup to a defense that had consistently struggled before shutting down Tampa last week. Kyle Pitts is going to have his best game of the season one that reminds Atlanta fans just what he would be capable of if the team shifts to Desmond Ridder and is willing to put together a balanced offensive attack.
