The Atlanta Falcons faced a disappointing 20-17 loss to the New Orleans Saints, despite feeling they outperformed their opponents. Kicker Younghoe Koo missed three field goals, a rare occurrence in his career, which he took full responsibility for, stating it was one of his lowest points as a kicker.

Quarterback Kirk Cousins had a productive day with 306 passing yards, but critical mistakes, including a late interception and a fumble, hindered the Falcons' chances. Coach Raheem Morris expressed confidence in Koo despite the missed opportunities, acknowledging the team's overall struggles.
