It's a great night for fantasy owners of Falcons players on Monday night, what with Atlanta piling up points against a porous Saints defense in New Orleans. The Falcons have 45 total points as of this writing, and most of them are coming via a punishing ground game.
Fortunately for the people who drafted Devonta Freeman, the Falcons primary back is out there balling. He's got 89 yards on just 11 carries, along with 5 receptions for 55 yards and a touchdown.
He even laid down a filthy stiff arm on the Saints defense.
Oh my, @devontafreeman. 💪#ATLvsNOpic.twitter.com/Kcy7hiDutq

Unfortunately for the people who own Freeman, he's not having as good a night as he could. That's because backup running back Tevin Coleman is vulturing touchdowns left and right, while looking like a force in the red zone.
Coleman has 10 carries for 38 yards, but he's also found the end zone three times on Monday.
THREE TDs!

I know this debate is important but Tevin Coleman has vultured three touchdowns from Devonta Freeman and I'm down by 3. I'm sick.

Tevin Coleman was exactly the reason why I didn't draft Devonta Freeman

Some people even wanted to put the Presidential debate on hold and ask some REAL questions.
The real issue that should be debated tonight is why is Tevin Coleman vulturing all of Devonta Freeman's goal line carries #debatenight

Can Lester ask them what those of us with Devonta Freeman on our fantasy team are supposed to do about Tevin Coleman stealing TDs?
— Garrett Gordon (@GarrettGordon) September 27, 2016
Couldn't care any less about the debate or the presidency. I wanna know why Dan Quinn plays Tevin Coleman more than Devonta Freeman

Then there are the people who apparently don't understand the rule about always starting every person you possibly can against the Saints defense.
Guys I have Tevin Coleman and Devonta Freeman and didn't start either of them 😑
— LucasLey (@LucasLey71) September 27, 2016
So I'm happy I have Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman and always start Freeman expecting something big
— ❄Matty Ice❄ (@mattyice61_) September 27, 2016
And then there are the REAL winners in the Coleman/Freeman battle -- the people who started both of them.
In fantasy football I have Devonta Freeman and picked up his backup, Tevin Coleman, & played both in desperation. Combined 52 points so far😂

Raise your hand if you started both Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman on your fantasy team. 🙋🏼♂️
— Tyler Quistad (@TQ1990) September 27, 2016
When you start Tevin Coleman and Devonta Freeman 🙏

I started Tevin Coleman AND Devonta Freeman tonight 😎😎😎 I'm the best
