BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: It's important to understand that one game doesn't dictate how the rest of the season will go, and it doesn't necessarily show a big change in how the offense functions. Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier had his biggest game of the season, scoring 19.8 PPR fantasy points, but it wasn't because he was taking over the lead role.

The Falcons blew out the Carolina Panthers in Week 6, and in games where they have a substantial lead, you can expect to see more of Allgeier. They can rest their lead running back and use the third-year pro's talents to finish off their opponents, especially if said opponent has a poor run defense.
In games that are closer or when the Falcons are behind, expect much more of Bijan Robinson. The Falcons face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 7, and it's unlikely they'll be winning that game by blowout. Seattle fields a competent offense and a solid defense (when healthy).
Allgeier is best left on the bench. He needs 15 or more carries to be fantasy-relevant, and the odds are stacked against him getting them.
