The Atlanta Falcons snapped a four-game losing streak in the ugliest of fashions. Offense was at a premium, as the 15-9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders indicates. So, the Falcons turned to their defense and special teams.
Two interceptions, one fumble recovery, two blocked punts, one blocked point-after try and one safety later, Atlanta was victorious. The Falcons, at 7-7, remain in the NFC South hunt, while the Raiders are in a battle with the Giants to secure the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
