Fantasy Game Matchups.

Falcons

Matt Ryan: Start
Tevin Coleman: Start
Ito Smith: Sleeper
Julio Jones: Start
Mohamed Sanu: Flex
Calvin Ridley: Flex
Austin Hooper: Start
Falcons DST: Sit

The Falcons offense was held in check last week but hopefully it returns to its old ways against a familiar foe on a fast track. Matt Ryan's ball distribution has helped nearly every skill position player in the offense maintain solid fantasy value all season. The Saints have been tough on running backs lately but it's hard to consider sitting Tevin Coleman. Austin Hooper has been far from consistent but he's still a top 10 fantasy tight end this season and deserves starting consideration. As always, you can avoid the Falcons defense.

Saints

Drew Brees: Start
Alvin Kamara: Start
Mark Ingram: Start
Michael Thomas: Start
Tre'Quan Smith: Start
Benjamin Watson: Stream
Saints DST: Sit

The Saints are on a roll, scoring 45 or more points in three straight games. At this point, it's foolish to consider sitting any of them -- especially against such a porous defense. The only concern might be New Orleans' defense. The Saints have barely crept into the top 25 and although they've given you good fantasy totals in three of the last four, the one dud came against the Rams in Week 9. Atlanta's offense isn't quite as good as L.A.'s but it's still one of the more efficient outfits in the NFL.

The Falcons won’t have linebacker Deion Jones on hand as they try to slow down the Saints offense, but the Saints could have defensive end Marcus Davenport back in the lineup.

Jones was activated from injured reserve a little more than a week ago, but did not play against the Cowboys last Sunday and the team ruled him out for Thursday night’s trip to New Orleans. Jones had foot surgery after being injured in the season opener and will try to make his second appearance of the season in Week 13.

Jones was the only player given an injury designation by Atlanta.

Davenport returned to practice this week after missing the last three games with a toe injury. He’s been listed as questionable along with wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith. Smith, who had a huge game against the Eagles, was initially listed as a limited participant on Tuesday before the team updated their injury report to say he didn’t practice at all. He was limited on Wednesday.

The Saints have ruled out left tackle Terron Armstead, who will miss a second straight game with a toe injury.
