Tyler Shough to Chris Olave has been the engine of the New Orleans Saints offense, and the Atlanta Falcons' poor pass defense makes the pass the key to victory

Darrion Gray argues that New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave is primed for another standout performance against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons enter the matchup with the NFL's 29th-ranked pass defense and recently placed top cornerback A.J. Terrell on injured reserve, leaving them vulnerable to New Orleans' aerial attack led by quarterback Tyler Shough.
Gray notes that the Saints should heavily favor the pass because Atlanta features the league's top-ranked rushing defense, allowing only 2.9 yards per carry. In addition, New Orleans recently lost running back Travis Etienne Jr. to injury, further emphasizing the need to rely on Olave, Devaughn Vele, and tight ends Juwan Johnson and Noah Fant.
