Sunday Night Football pits the Minnesota Vikings against the Atlanta Falcons with Minnesota a 3.5-point favorite. Atlanta leans on Michael Penix Jr., Bijan Robinson and Drake London, but faces a steeper test against Flores’ unit. Minnesota counters with J.J. McCarthy, Justin Jefferson and a balanced attack, while Flores pressures the Falcons and the run game is shaped by Robinson’s receiving role. Key bets lean toward McCarthy rushing, Jefferson big-play depth, and Bijan’s receiving upside.

Prop focus includes McCarthy 20+ rushing yards, Jefferson longest reception over 25.5, Bijan 30+ receiving yards, and Nailor over 16.5 receiving yards. Betting trends favor Minnesota in September and a high-total game with recent efficiency on both sides, making this a nuanced mix of floor and ceiling plays for fantasy executives and bettors alike.

Kyle Pitts’ Week 2 fantasy outlook hinges on Falcons health. If Drake London and Darnell Mooney are limited, Pitts could see more targets, but with both back he sits behind top options in PPR. The Falcons travel to Minnesota to face Flores’ defense, a tougher test that suppresses volume. If London misses, Pitts becomes a viable flex/TE1; otherwise he’s a wait‑and‑see play with Bijan Robinson in the mix to keep the offense balanced.

In standard leagues Pitts remains a fringe option unless injury luck breaks his way. Monitor Friday updates; Pitts carries upside in the right game script and could thrive if the WRs are limited or banged up. A cautious approach is warranted, but the upside remains real in shallow formats and deeper rosters.
