Brian Robinson Jr. rushed the ball 14 times for 62 yards and three touchdowns in Monday night's 45-24 blowout win over the New Orleans Saints.

Fantasy Impact: Robinson had one of the best games of his careers in Week 4, scoring three touchdowns en route to a blowout win over Atlanta's divisional rivals on Monday night. He was able to tack on 62 yards outside of that, and he should be considered one of the premier handcuff options in fantasy at this point, as he has week-to-week upside even with Bijan Robinson healthy and starting ahead of him for the Falcons.

Drake London hauled in 5-of-6 targets for 96 yards in Monday night's 45-24 win over the New Orleans Saints.

Fantasy Impact: Most of Atlanta's receiving options didn't see much work on Monday with how dominant the team's running game was, but London was the exception to that. He fell just four yards shy of a 100-yard outing against the Saints and finished with another good performance for fantasy managers. He has looked great ever since QB Michael Penix Jr. took the starting job for the Falcons, so he should continue to be a great fantasy asset for the foreseeable future.

Michael Penix Jr. completed 15-of-20 passing attempts for 223 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 45-24 win over the New Orleans Saints.

Fantasy Impact: Penix didn't have to do too much on Monday with Atlanta's backfield combining for over 200 yards and five touchdowns in this blowout win over the Saints. The third-year quarterback was efficient on his limited work and should continue to support Atlanta's offense moving forward, as it has seen a very significant step forward ever since he reclaimed the starting job.

Bijan Robinson rushed the ball 19 times for 145 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 45-24 win over the New Orleans Saints.

Fantasy Impact: Robinson was absolutely dominant on Monday night. He led the Falcons in rushing with 145 yards on the night at a hyper-efficient clip of 7.6 yards per carry, and he was also able to get into the end zone on two separate occasions. He let a little to be desired in the passing game, but that was simply because the Falcons were up so much for so long. He has been stellar over the first four weeks of the season and should continue to be one of the best assets in all of fantasy moving forward.
