Falcons WR Darnell Mooney recorded his first career two-TD game in Thursday night's 36-30 overtime win over the Bucs. The first was an impressive 24-yarder in between multiple defenders. Mooney went up to get the ball and absorbed contact before tumbling into the end zone. His second TD came from 12 yards out. Mooney ran a quick out, spun away from his defender, and then beat the angle of another defender to get into the paint. Those were two of Mooney's nine catches for 105 yards on the night. He could have had an even bigger game but had an ugly drop in the fourth quarter for what could have gone for a 36-yard TD.
Mooney led Atlanta in Week 5 with 16 targets for a 27% share. He now trails WR Drake London by just four targets on the season and owns a 22.5% target share.
QB Kirk Cousins is looking better and better every week. And, after calling pass on just 54% of their plays over the first three weeks, the Falcons have registered 71% and 78% pass rates the last two.
It all has Mooney working his way right into weekly WR3 status. He gets a plus matchup vs. the Panthers in Week 6 before a tough Seahawks defense in Week 7. That's followed by a rematch with the Bucs.
