On Saturday, the Atlanta Falcons placed starting linebacker Divine Deablo on the IR with a fractured forearm.

According to Adam Schefter, the Atlanta Falcons have made a decision on starting Michael Penix or Kirk Cousins against the Dolphins Sunday.

The hungry NFL injury bug may have just handed Kirk Cousins and the Falcons a chance at a mutually beneficial exit strategy.

Atlanta enters this contest pretty banged up, with quarterback Michael Penix Jr. the latest to be somewhat ailing. Penix suffered a bone bruise to his knee in the Sunday Night Football loss, and while he is expected to start, he will likely also be limited, which is why the Falcons should double-down on the ground game.

The Atlanta Falcons are set to get a major boost on the offensive line after offensive tackle Storm Norton had his 21-day window opened on Wednesday.

While dropping Dolphins passer Tua Tagovailoa to waivers could be a drastic move by fantasy managers, it’s certainly justifiable. With that being said, there’s no reason to push him into starting lineups unless you need to start someone in a pinch.

The Atlanta Falcons lack of a middle-of-the-field (MOF) passing attack is starting to draw more attention. Michael Penix Jr.’s passing charts on NextGenStats are raising questions about what’s going on. Is it the coach, quarterback, or something else? Let’s take a closer look at Week 8’s biggest question.

Divine Deablo has been one of the best free agent signings in the NFL this season, but he'll miss the Atlanta Falcons' game against the Miami Dolphins.
