McLaurin is Washington's best receiver but with defenses focusing on stopping him, Samuel has been nearly as productive. Samuel had a season-high 65 receiving yards on six catches last week and he has eclipsed the 50-yard mark in four of five games this year. Samuel primarily runs routes out of the slot and Atlanta is weak in that area with Dee Alford allowing a 72.7% catch rate and a passer rating of 110.3 against throws in his direction.This line hit the board with the Falcons at -2.5.
