Falcons

The emotional rollercoaster

Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.

What happened

M.Penix's 69-yard strike to B.Robinson cracked the game open in the third, and the division finally got a Washington monkey off the back. Still, the M.Sainristil interception and Mariota — Mariota — gashing the defense for 22 on the ground and hitting D.Samuel for a 24-yard score keep this from feeling clean. The offense looks real when B.Robinson eats; the secondary looks like a problem that's still coming due.
