Marcus Mariota completed 17 of his 26 pass attempts for 196 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in the Falcons’ Week 2 defeat to the Rams. He additionally rushed six times for 16 yards and lost a fumble.
Fantasy Impact: Mariota posted a weaker performance this week against the defending champion Rams, failing to clear 200 yards and committing three turnovers. On the other hand, he nearly led the Falcons to a furious comeback win after trailing 28-3 in the third frame, but threw a game-losing interception in the red-zone. Mariota continued to showcase his chemistry with rookie WR Drake London, but hasn’t yet been on the same page with Kyle Pitts. He should serve as a low-end QB2 option against the Seahawks in Week 3.
