I'm trying to figure that one out myself. I picked him up in fantasy and dropped him because he got no PT in the first game. I figured they would run the ball a little more this year, at least until Brady got into a good rhythm. The only way Atlanta wins is if their D shows up big. The two games the Pats have played came against two really good defenses and while Atlanta has played above what most people thought they could on D there is still a wide margin between their defense and the previous two teams the Patriots played. Who is going to cover Moss when the front line doesn't get any pressure and Brady has time to pick and chose?
