The Atlanta Falcons must stop Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet

Cole Kmet has been a touchdown machine these past three weeks for the Chicago Bears, so the Atlanta Falcons need to key in on him inside the red zone.

Kmet hasn’t been someone who has put up big yards this year but he is coming off back-to-back games with two touchdown catches and he had another one three weeks ago. Those are the only touchdowns he has this season, so the Bears are clearly making an effort to feed him the ball in the end zone.

He has been Justin Fields’ top target in the passing game for two weeks now. Fields has not been good when he has to go through his progressions, so each top target you take away increases your chances of having a good outcome.

If the Atlanta Falcons can stop, or even limit, these three players then they can win this crucial game in week 11.
