Falcons complete comeback as Bucs drop from first in NFC South
"On Thursday night in prime time, they showed that fight. The Falcons came back from a 14-point deficit in the third quarter to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 29-28 at Raymond James Stadium. Falcons kicker Zane Gonzalez made a 43-yard field goal as time expired to win it. Quarterback Kirk Cousins was 30-of-44 for 373 yards and 3 touchdowns. Running back Bijan Robinson had 19 carries for 93 yards and another 82 receiving yards on eight catches."
"Stat to know: Pitts had his first 100-yard receiving game since his rookie season in 2021. Pitts went off in the first half, the kind of performance the Falcons desperately needed without Drake London (knee). It was the first time a Falcons player had 100 receiving yards and two touchdowns in a half since Calvin Ridley in 2018. Biggest hole in the game plan: The Falcons aren't making the playoffs and won't have a winning season."
The Falcons rallied from a 14-point third-quarter deficit to beat the Buccaneers 29-28 on a 43-yard field goal by Zane Gonzalez as time expired. Kirk Cousins completed 30 of 44 passes for 373 yards and three touchdowns. Bijan Robinson rushed 19 times for 93 yards and added 82 receiving yards on eight catches. Kyle Pitts had 11 catches for 166 yards and three touchdowns, marking his first 100-yard receiving game since 2021. Tampa Bay fell half a game behind Carolina in the NFC South and has one win in its past six games. Atlanta had 10 penalties in the first half and remains out of playoff contention.
