The Atlanta Falcons faced the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football.

Falcons running back Bijan Robinson had himself a game, rushing 19 times for 170 yards and a touchdown. He also had six catches for 68 yards.

Atlanta went on to win 24-14 as the Falcons' offense was rolling and the defense forced Josh Allen to throw two interceptions.

After the game on Wednesday, the NFL announced the players of the week.

"NFC Players of the Week! (Week 6)," the NFL posted.

Over in the NFC, Robinson was named the Offensive Player of the Week after his 238 all-purpose yard performance.

Robinson has firmly placed his name in the Offensive Player of the Year conversation and possibly the MVP conversation.

So far this season, he has 484 yards and two touchdowns on the ground, while adding 24 catches for 338 yards and a touchdown in the air.

Robinson is in his third season with the team after they drafted him eighth overall in 2023.

He played his college football at Texas, where he spent three years there.

The Falcons will look to improve to 4-2 when they face the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football at 8:20 p.m. ET.
