Falcons' confidence grows, tied with Bucs atop NFC South
The Atlanta Falcons are atop the NFC SouthOCTOBER 17, 2022 • Associated Press
Ryan Succop - Busy afternoon in Week 6 loss Succop converted field-goal attempts of 30, 27, 54 and 24 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-18 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Impact Succop didn't have a chance to attempt an extra point for the second time this season, as the Buccaneers went for a two-point conversion after their one touchdown. However, Succop's perfect tally on field goals served as an extension of what is turning into a potential career-best season for the veteran, who's only missed one attempt all season back in Week 1 and has been perfect on eight PATs as well.

Rachaad White - Modest numbers in Week 6 loss White rushed four times for 12 yards, brought in three of four targets for 11 yards and returned two kickoffs for 54 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-18 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Impact White was even more of a second fiddle to Leonard Fournette than in recent games, with his snap count on offense tumbling down to 15 after he'd been at 23 and 30 in Weeks 4 and 5, respectively. Nevertheless, White still logged only one fewer touch than during his season-high participation rate in Week 5, and he seems like an increasingly certain proposition for multiple carries and targets each week after having accomplished that feat in both categories for three consecutive games.

Cade Otton - Pair of grabs in Week 6 loss Otton brought in two of three targets for 23 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-18 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Impact The rookie tight end went back to a timeshare role at tight end to open the game, as Cameron Brate had been deemed healthy enough to return from his concussion. However, Brate suffered a head/neck injury that forced him to be stretchered off after 32 snaps, leading to Otton assuming the lead pass-catching role at the position the rest of the way. Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports that Brate's injury has now officially been diagnosed as a neck sprain and there are no associated neurological issues; however, there's seemingly a good chance the veteran sits out the Week 7 road matchup against the Panthers, at minimum, opening up more opportunity for Otton in the process.

Win over Bucs gives Steelers welcome dose of optimism
The Pittsburgh Steelers know there's plenty of work to do even after their surprising win over Tampa BayOCTOBER 17, 2022 • Associated Press
Russell Gage - Pair of grabs in loss Gage brought in two of four targets for 20 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-18 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Impact Gage once again spent plenty of time on the field -- he logged 53 snaps overall -- yet had little to show for it. The veteran now has three straight two-catch efforts, and he's eclipsed 28 receiving yards all of one time in the first six games, despite the prolonged absence of Julio Jones (knee). Gage's fantasy value remains muted heading into a Week 7 divisional matchup on the road against the Panthers.

Chris Boswell - Perfect against Buccaneers Boswell converted both of his field-goal attempts while making both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 20-18 win over Tampa Bay.
Impact After missing two kicks during last week's loss in windy Buffalo, Boswell was perfect against the Buccaneers to help lead the Steelers to the narrow victory. The 31-year-old has had plenty of work from 50-plus yards to begin the season but has made just 73.3 percent of his total field-goal attempts over the first six weeks of the year.
