Falcons play spoiler to Matthew Stafford’s MVP and Bucs’ playoff hopes in thriller over Rams behind big game from Bijan Robinson
Atlanta entered Monday night at 6-9 with nothing to play for. They didn’t get that memo against the playoff-bound Los Angeles Rams. Atlanta jumped out to a 21-0 halftime lead and held off a second-half Rams rally for a thrilling 27-24 win. The Rams tied the game at 24-24 late in the fourth quarter. But the Falcons responded to set up a game-winning field-goal attempt by Zane Gonzalez.

Falcons fans continue to call for organizational overhaul after blown lead, loss to Jets
It's a new week but the same old frustrating Falcons, who blew yet another late 4th quarter lead and lost to one of the NFL's bottom feeders, the NY Jets. Atlanta dropped to 4-8 and gave the Jets just their third win of the season. In a season that was filled with expectations and the thought that the Falcons would make its first playoff appearance in eight years, about everything that could go wrong has gone wrong.

A miserable loss leaves even less reason to believe in Falcons, Morris
Let’s start with the positives for the Falcons. They won’t have to deal with any “Kirk Cousins needs to keep playing” distractions. Atlanta looked unprepared against a one win Dolphins team. The Falcons were without injured rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (bruised left knee), and Cousins struggled to lift an offense that produced as many first-half three-and-outs as points. He finished 21 of 31 for 173 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and took one sack.

Falcons defense 'big step forward' against Josh Allen, Bills offense
Mission accomplished. The Falcons have proven they have a new and improved defensive unit. And not just because of its dominant performance in the team's win against the Buffalo Bills on "Monday Night Football" but because of how it has performed through five games now. Entering Week 7, the Falcons are 3-2 with the No. 1 defense in yards allowed, No. 1 pass defense, No. 17 run defense and No. 7 in scoring defense.

Falcons HC Raheem Morris Press Conference Previewing Buffalo
"It was nice to get a win going to the bye. It definitely makes it way more enjoyable. And then you do look forward to coming back … We come back to play a prime-time game on Monday night. Against Buffalo, we know the run defense is going to be tested and our guys have to be ready to execute and bring down the quarterback when those chances come. On offense, it will be about continuing to let our identity come out. We’ll be ready to go."
