Kirk Cousins' new favorite target came out of nowhere to help ignite Falcons' offense

With Drake London sidelined, the Atlanta Falcons' wide receiver depth has been pretty woeful, but that didn't stop Kirk Cousins from turning in his best start of the season. In the Week 15 upset over the Bucs, Cousins threw for 373 yards and three scores in large part due to Kyle Pitts' career game.

The 37-year-old might have finally proven he's still a starter-worthy QB in this league, but the most impressive part is the fact he did this with a beat-up receiver room. Darnell Mooney is still not 100% and the rest of the depth chart consists of career journeymen and former undrafted free agents.
