Atlanta’s Desmond Ridder and Washington’s Sam Howell are coming off career-best passing games as they prepare to face each other Sunday, Oct. 15, in a matchup of second-year quarterbacks. The game will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial), DirecTV Stream (free trial) and Paramount+ (free trial).

The Commanders (2-3) will try to snap a three-game losing streak. Washington has allowed 33 or more points in four consecutive games, including last week’s 40-20 home loss to Chicago. The poor defensive showing overshadowed Howell’s career-high 37 completions and 388 yards.

Ridder, meanwhile, posted his first 300-yard game, setting career highs with 28 completions and 329 yards in the Falcons’ 21-19 win over the Houston Texans. Ridder passed and ran for touchdowns and led a last-minute drive to set up Younghoe Koo’s 37-yard field goal as time expired.

It was a rebound performance by Ridder one week after his three turnovers in a loss to Jacksonville led to questions about his hold on the starting job. The Falcons (3-2) have an opportunity to move two games over .500 for the first time since 2017, their last winning season.

Ridder said good protection from Atlanta’s offensive line put him in position to flourish against Houston and will be the key against Washington’s pass rush led by Montez Sweat. Ridder was sacked 16 times in the first four games and was not dropped behind the line by the Texans.
