Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Uptick in production during big win
Pitts secured all three targets for 47 yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.
Pitts finished second in receptions and tied for runner-up status in targets on a night when Michael Penix didn't have to do an inordinate amount through the air thanks to the ground attack's exploits. Despite the relatively modest numbers, Pitts' final line was a vast improvement over his first three games of the season, when he'd mustered just a 2-20-0 line on six targets. Pitts' uptick in involvement could have some sticking power given his rapport with Penix, and the duo will look to continue clicking into a Week 5 home matchup against the Ravens on Sunday night.

Falcons' Nick Folk: Perfect on seven kicks in MNF win
Folk made his lone field-goal attempt all six PATs in Monday night's 45-24 win over the Saints.
The Falcons dominated this game from start to finish and ran the ball down New Orleans' throat, especially in the red zone, which kept Folk kicking extra points. His field goal was good from 29 yards, and the 41-year-old has made just six of nine field-goal tries and all 10 PATs through four games. All three of his misses this season are from 40-plus yards.

Falcons' Brian Robinson: Racks up three TDs in win
Robinson rushed 14 times for 62 yards and three touchdowns and brought in his sole target for five yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.
After Bijan Robinson staked the Falcons to an early 14-0 lead with his pair of touchdown runs, it was Brian Robinson's turn from the second quarter on. The veteran backup took center stage with touchdown runs of four, eight and 11 yards in each of the last three quarters, and given the increasingly lopsided nature of the game, Brian was able to finish with just five fewer rush attempts than Bijan. Brian has now logged double-digit carries in three straight games while recording at least 50 rush yards in each of those contests, affording him plenty of momentum heading into a Week 5 home matchup against the Ravens on Sunday night.

Falcons' Michael Penix: Highly efficient in big division win
Penix completed 15 of 20 passes for 223 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions and rushed twice for minus-2 yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.
Bijan Robinson helped stake the Falcons to a 14-0 lead after one quarter, so Penix immediately had some pressure off his shoulders in only his second start since returning from last year's ACL tear. However, the third-year signal-caller still looked very sharp when called upon, and he essentially left no doubt as to the outcome of the contest when he connected with Jahan Dotson for a 31-yard scoring strike with just under 10 minutes remaining in the contest. Penix spread the ball around to seven different targets overall, and he's now completed 73.3 percent of his passes heading into a Week 5 home showdown against the Ravens on Sunday night.

Falcons' Drake London: Just short of century mark in win
London brought in five of six targets for 96 yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.
London set the pace for the Falcons' pass catchers for the second straight contest in all of receptions, receiving yards and targets, although his totals were appreciably more modest than the 9-194-0 line he'd produced on 10 targets in Week 3 against the Packers. Nevertheless, London and Michael Penix have quickly clicked during the latter's first two games of the season following his recovery from last year's ACL tear, and the talented receiver's prospects will therefore remain bright for a Week 5 home interconference showdown against the Ravens on Sunday night.

Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Another dominant effort Monday
Robinson rushed 19 times for 145 yards and two touchdowns and brought in one of two targets for two yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.
Fresh off a 194-yard, two-touchdown effort against the Packers that kicked off the Week 3 slate back on Sept. 24, a well-rested Robinson put together a very similar performance, albeit with a slight reduction in workload. Robinson set the tone just three plays into the contest, capping off the opening possession with a 59-yard touchdown run down the left side of the field. He came back just before the opening period ending with a four-yard scoring rush, and he then ceded three other red-zone opportunities in the second half to backfield mate Brian Robinson. Bijan already has 494 rushing yards and four touchdowns on the ground through his first four contests, and the switch to Michael Penix at quarterback has led to the star running back's top two efforts to date this season. Robinson next takes aim at a tough Ravens defense in a Week 5 home matchup Sunday night.

Falcons' Jake Matthews: Questionable to return to MNF
Matthews (groin) is questionable to return to Monday night's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Matthews exited Monday's contest in the first quarter with a groin injury. The left tackle promptly returned to the game and was blocking for Bijan Robinson on his second touchdown of the night near the end of the first quarter. In his absence, Michael Jerrell has replaced Matthews on the offensive line.

Falcons' Za'Darius Smith: Being checked for concussion
Smith (neck) is being evaluated for a possible question and is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Smith took a knee to the helmet early in the first quarter and was down on the field for several minutes, but the veteran pass rusher was able to jog off the field and into the blue medical tent. Cameron Thomas and Yasir Abdullah should both see more defensive snaps for as long as Smith is on the sidelines being evaluated by medical staff.

Falcons' Yasir Abdullah: Set for Monday night reserve role
Abdullah (illness) is active for Monday night's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Abdullah was added to the Falcons' Saturday injury report with an illness. The last-minute plague left Abdullah questionable for Monday night's contest. The outside linebacker has overcome the issue in time to suit up as a reserve option behind starting edge rushers Samson Ebukam and Za'Darius Smith.

Falcons' Samson Ebukam: Active for Monday
Ebukam (hamstring) is active for Monday night's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Ebukam missed the Falcons' Week 3 win over the Packers due to a hamstring injury he suffered in the team's Week 2 loss to the Panthers. The outside linebacker is now ready to suit up for Monday's contest alongside recently returned Divine Diablo, cementing the first and second levels of the Falcons' defense heading into a primetime matchup.
