Kirk Cousins led the Atlanta Falcons to a thrilling 22-21 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, throwing a game-winning touchdown to Drake London with just 34 seconds left. This win, a potential turning point for the Falcons, comes after an 18-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, showcasing a revived Cousins who had struggled previously due to injury.
First-year coach Raheem Morris emphasized the boost in morale for the team, which was powered by a strong running game and solid performances from both Cousins and Darnell Mooney. While the defense generated some pressure, there remains room for improvement, particularly in achieving more sacks. With the Kansas City Chiefs coming up next, the Falcons have the opportunity to further prove their worth.
