"For the first time in his career, Kyle Pitts scored a touchdown in back-to-back games. Pitts has been operating as the top receiving threat while Drake London has been managing an injury, and the hot streak continued in Arizona. Pitts is the first Falcons tight end with four touchdowns in two games since Alge Crumpler. After Sunday's game, Pitts is second among all tight ends in targets (106), receptions (80), and receiving yards (854)."
"Henderson was signed late in camp and has bounced around the practice squad. His number was called yesterday, and the cornerback did not waste his opportunity. Henderson replaced Cobee Byrant in the first quarter and played a clean game, totaling 36 snaps. He sealed the victory for the Falcons with a perfectly timed break on the ball, which led to his first interception since 2022 and only the 4th of his career."
"The best running back in football joined an exclusive club with his sublime performance in the state where he grew up. Robinson is only the 3rd player in Falcons history to hit the 2,000 scrimmage yard mark, and it only took 15 games. We've seen Bijan evolve every season, and the film shows that there's still meat left on the bone. The team's record will keep him out of it, but he should be at the forefront of the Offensive Player of the Year race."
The Atlanta Falcons secured their first road win in Arizona in over 20 years, propelled by standout individual efforts. Kyle Pitts has emerged as the top receiving threat, scoring in consecutive games and ranking second among tight ends in targets, receptions, and receiving yards. A.J. Henderson, elevated from the practice squad, played 36 snaps and sealed the victory with a timely interception. Bijan Robinson reached 2,000 scrimmage yards in 15 games, becoming the third Falcon to do so and earning Offensive Player of the Year attention despite team record constraints. Drake London returned but appeared uncomfortable.
