The Atlanta Falcons seemed to be firmly in control of Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints, but three fourth-quarter touchdowns by the Saints put the game in doubt. New Orleans took the lead with one minute remaining, but Atlanta fought back and drove down the field for a game-winning field goal.
Arthur Smith is now 4-4 after his first eight games as head coach of the Falcons, however, he was far from perfect on Sunday. Despite nearly blowing a game that could have derailed the season, Smith’s team wouldn’t be denied and now Atlanta has a real shot at making the playoffs.
