From the Falcons weekly
Atlanta beat New Orleans 45-24 at the Caesars Superdome on Monday night, and it ran straight through the fronts built to stop it. The tone was set on the third snap. Second and 1 at the Atlanta 41, 13:43 left in the first quarter, no score: Bijan Robinson went around left end into a seven-man box and ran 59 yards for a touchdown. It was worth +4.7 expected points added (EPA), what a snap is worth given down, distance and field position against what the situation was already worth, and 14.8 points of win probability, the biggest swing of the game. The Falcons never trailed, led 24-7 at halftime, and after two first-quarter punts scored on six straight possessions, leaving aside two snaps to end the half.
