The Atlanta Falcons beat the Cleveland Browns in Atlanta on Sunday 23-20 winning despite their quarterback completing only seven passes and turning the ball over. The story of this game offensively was the late emergence of Tyler Allgeier and Caleb Huntley who set the Falcons up to make the game-winning plays.

The Atlanta defense had a great second half as well limiting the Browns to ten points and making the game-winning play by intercepting a late Jacoby Brissett pass to end the game. The interception was set up by yet another clutch Grady Jarrett sack. With the Browns driving late for either the tie or game-winning score Jarrett got to Brissett and helped Atlanta end the game with his second game-winning sack of the season.

While the Atlanta Falcons might have come away with the clutch win there were still Falcons who didn’t deliver and will be under pressure heading into week five against Tampa Bay. Starting with the most obvious issue the Falcons had on Sunday.
