They were at it again in Sunday's 37-36 loss to Cincinnati Youth Ryan Ramczyk Jersey , allowing Andy Dalton to complete a 13-yard touchdown pass to A.J. Green with 7 seconds remaining."It's like just taking your heart and ripping it out," defensive end Vic Beasley said. "It's tough, but it's just part of the game. It's why we play the game. We play the game to win, but sometimes that's how it ends up."The Falcons gave up touchdowns on the first four drives, but held the Bengals to one field goal in the second half before Dalton directed a 16-play, 75-yard drive. He completed one third-down pass and two fourth-down throws to Tyler Boyd, all against Desmond Trufant.On the winning catch, Dalton had an easy decision to look for Green, a seven-time Pro Bowl selection, to come open against zone coverage with inexperienced cornerback Isaiah Oliver defending the right side of the end zone.Dalton had enough time to wait for Green to come open and slide down for the catch. Oliver and Brian Poole were closest to the receiver, but had no chance to make a play."I probably should've sank back a little bit more http://www.thesaintsfootballauthentic.com/thomas-morstead-jersey-authentic , like 3 or 4 yards," Oliver said. "(Defensive coordinator Marquand Manuel) said that it sucks right now, but you've just got to take it and learn something from it. It can't all be negative."There hasn't been much positivity for Atlanta's defense this year. Two starters 鈥?strong safety Keanu Neal and free safety Ricardo Allen 鈥?are injured and out for the season. Defensive captain Deion Jones, a third-year linebacker, is sidelined with a foot injury and will miss at least the next six weeks.Even though they've allowed 80 points in the past two games, Sunday wasn't entirely a disaster for the defense. Takk McKinley had three sacks, all in the second half, and safety Damontae Kazee got his first career interception.A big call that could have favored Beasley went Cincinnati's way in the fourth quarter. McKinley took down Dalton for a 10-yard loss and the ball came loose and Beasley recovered the fumble at the Atlanta 18. But the ruling was reversed because Dalton's knee was down. A 36-yard field goal cut the lead to 33-31.Beasley returned to the game quickly in the first quarter after leaving with an ankle injury. He knew the line was in bad shape depth wise. McKinley missed last week with a groin injury, and reserve end Derrick Shelby didn't dress for the second straight game because of a groin injury.McKinley said the defense can't afford to let the injuries affect its collective psyche."We have to finish," McKinley said. "Regardless how many points we held them to in the second half, we lost the game."Last week's loss to New Orleans dropped the Falcons to 1-1 in the NFC South when quarterback Drew Brees forced overtime with a 7-yard touchdown run and then won the game with a 1-yard run in the extra period.Against Cincinnati http://www.thesaintsfootballauthentic.com/ken-crawley-jersey-authentic , the Falcons did it again. They'll have another chance to get it right next week at Pittsburgh."Those are the moments I'm talking about where when it's time to close the door and shut it, we're going to develop that instinct," coach Dan Quinn said. "We do not have it as we need to right now. But as it got down to it, that's where we need more attention and more time." A look at some key fantasy football questions going into Week 7:WHICH SAINTS WR WILL HAVE THE BIGGEST BOOST IN PRODUCTION WITH TED GINN ON INJURED RERSERVE?The Saints have been high on Tre'Quan Smith since the preseason. He had 16 receptions (three for 20 yards or more) this summer, and with Ginn sidelined in Week 5 he caught three passes for 111 yards and added two TDs. His two scores went for 62 and 35 yards, showing he's a big play receiver. Although he was second on the team in routes run, in Week 5 he only received three targets.Cameron Meredith should play most of his snaps from the slot. He might receive more targets and catch more passes than Smith, but Smith has the bigger upside. Saints receivers have a tough matchup against a good Ravens defense this week, so don't become alarmed if neither player puts up big numbers. Both receivers should see an uptick in production but Smith has better potential for the rest of the season.WHICH UNDER-THE-RADAR WR HAS THE BEST CHANCE FOR A BIG GAME IN WEEK 7?Bears WR Allen Robinson has been dealing with a groin injury this week. He may not play and if he does, he might be limited. Robinson's injury could make Taylor Gabriel Chicago's most targeted receiver this week. Gabriel hasn't dropped a pass since Week 3 and has two straight games with 100 receiving yards or more. The Patriots defense has given up the third most TDs to wide receivers with nine this season. Gabriel leads Bears WRs with four targets within the 10-yard line, so should have a good opportunity to score a TD in Week7.Jets WR Jermaine Kearse could be in line for another double-digit target week vs. the Vikings. With Quincy Enunwa out Youth Michael Thomas Jersey , Kearse should play a significant portion of his snaps from the slot, a weakness for the Vikings defense.WHICH UNDER-THE-RADAR RB HAS THE BEST CHANCE FOR A BIG GAME THIS WEEK?Peyton Barber may eventually lose his starting job to rookie RB Ronald Jones but it's not likely to happen right now. Barber's coming off his best performance of the season, having rushed the ball 13 times for 82 yards (that's 6.31 yards per carry). He also added four receptions for 24 yards and a TD. He has the potential to build upon that with a choice matchup against the Browns. They've given up 4.67 yards per carry and the second-most rushing TDs to the position this season.Kerryon Johnson could also have a larger role out of the Lions backfield this week if Theo Riddick is forced to miss time due to his knee injury. Johnson has averaged 5.98 yards per carry in his last four games and could be featured in the Lions passing game if Riddick is out.WHICH UNDER-THE-RADAR TE COULD BREAK OUT?Fantasy football players have been waiting a long time for Austin Hooper to emerge as a reliable fantasy TE. Well, it looks like it's finally happening. Hooper has caught nine passes in each of the last two weeks and has over 70 receiving yards in each of the past two outings as well. With Mohamed Sanu and Calvin Ridley battling injuries and questionable to play on Monday night, Hooper should see double-digit targets for a third straight game.CAN YOU RECOMMEND A GOOD BUY LOW TARGET AMONG WRS?Browns WR Jarvis Landry averaged just under seven catches per game through Week 3. He's maintained an average of 11 targets per game, but since Week 3 his has just over four catches per game.Now he gets a very favorable schedule over the next four weeks, facing the Buccaneers, Steelers, Chiefs and Falcons. All four of those teams are top 6 in most yards per game yielded to slot receivers. If you own Landry, use him with confidence starting this week. If you don't, his two catch for 11-yard Week 6 performance might allow you to trade for him at a discount.IF DALVIN COOK IS ACTIVE FOR WEEK 7 SHOULD HE BE IN STARTING LINEUPS?Cook's status (hamstring) needs to be closely monitored as game time approaches but even if he's active http://www.thesaintsfootballauthentic.com/ted-ginn-jr-jersey-authentic , if you have an alternate option, you should use it. Leading up to Week 6, Cook's practice status was as both a limited and full participant, he was also questionable, then likely to play and finally inactive. With the constant uncertainty surrounding his availability and the number of snaps he'll play if active, try to minimize your risk and slip another RB into your lineup if possible.IS IT TOO LATE TO TRY TO TRADE STEELERS RB JAMES CONNER?No. It never hurts to put a player with Conner's skill set on the trading block and allow offers to come your way. The potential impending arrival of Le'Veon Bell could drive down Conner's fantasy trade appeal, but if and when Bell reports, he's probably not going to be able to take on a full workload for a couple of weeks.If Bell reports and is activated for Week 8 he'd probably suit up, but it might take until Week 10 before he can possibly work as a bell cow back again. It could even still be a time share. Don't be too surprised if Conner retains a significant role in the Steelers offense.Gauge his value if you have another feasible option at RB that you can slide into your weekly lineup. If you don't, continue to use Conner until he's no longer a surefire starter.
