Bengals 34, Falcons 17 through our numbers
FRI 13 NOV 2026
Our Week 9 board had 6 players from this game in the top 11 at their position. Here is what our numbers said and what happened.
The hits. Joe Burrow, QB3 at 19.6: 24 of 29 for 271 yards and 3 TDs, plus a rushing TD. That is 29.5 PPR points, a QB3 finish. Ja'Marr Chase, WR3 at 22.4: 10 catches on 12 targets, 155 yards, 1 TD: 31.5, WR4. Bijan Robinson, RB4 at 21.7: 19 carries, 100 yards, 1 TD, and 6 catches: 26.7, RB3. Tee Higgins, WR7 at 18.4: 5 catches, 32 yards, 2 TDs: 20.2, WR9.
The misses. Drake London, WR6 at 18.7: 5 catches on 5 targets, 68 yards: 11.8, WR34. Chase Brown, RB11 at 16.2: 9 carries for 57 yards and 3 catches: 10.5, RB21. That is on us: we expected more volume for both.
Why the Bengals hit: on Burrow's page, team offense efficiency (trailing) is +0.257 EPA per play, 1st of 29, and his total passing EPA per game is +16.4, 1st of 27.
