The Atlanta Falcons are giving up the most fantasy points to opposing running backs this year, 36.8 points per game, and a big portion of that has come through the air. They've given up an average 10.5 receptions for 91.25 yards per game to opposing running backs, as well as 7 total rushing touchdowns, the most in the league.

The Washington backfield isn't easy to sort out for fantasy purposes, but Chris Thompson is shaping up to be the clear receiving threat among the running backs. He has 16 targets on the year, twice as many as Matt Jones (3) and Alfred Morris (5) combined.

Jordan Reed whose 22% share of the team's targets is the second-highest, missed practice on Thursday, and looks unlikely to go on Sunday, leaving the offense even thinner on passing-game options. Thompson should see plenty of opportunities in the passing game, and has a great matchup to turn those opportunities into fantasy points.
