"The Falcons were up 21-0 at one point in this one and completely dominated the first half, making Matthew Stafford uncomfortable, forcing turnovers, and getting some beautiful plays from Bijan Robinson. In the second half, though, they had a blocked field goal returned for a touchdown, defensive lapses, and an offensive shrinking that let the Rams roar their way back into it and tie the game on a Puka Nacua touchdown grab."
"Then the stress started. Stafford missed a wide open Xavier Smith, Dee Alford appeared to get away with pass interference working against Tutu Atwell on a bomb-I'm not sure the Rams would've gotten a play off if that had been complete, though-and then A.J. Terrell made back-to-back great plays in coverage to seal the win. Despite nearly collapsing, the Falcons pulled it out against one of the best teams in football, running their winning streak to three games"
Atlanta dominated early, building a 21-0 lead with strong running from Bijan Robinson, disruptive defense, and forced turnovers that unsettled Matthew Stafford. A blocked field goal returned for a touchdown and defensive lapses allowed the Rams to rally in the second half, with Puka Nacua tying the game. Late offense produced a 51-yard Zane Gonzalez field goal to make it 27-24. Critical moments included Stafford missing an open receiver and a potential pass-interference on Dee Alford, but A.J. Terrell made back-to-back coverage plays to secure the victory. The Falcons extended their winning streak to three games.
