It was on Monday night when Kirk Cousins accomplished his goal, and in the process, he left the Philadelphia Eagles in a state of utter disbelief.
During the game that took place at Lincoln Financial Field, Cousins led the Atlanta Falcons to victory over the Philadelphia Eagles by scoring a touchdown on a drive that spanned only 65 seconds and covered a distance of 70 yards. Following a field goal by the Eagles, which caused the Falcons to go down by six points with only 1 minute and 39 seconds remaining in the game, Cousins led the Falcons down the field and connected with Drake London for a touchdown that was seven yards long.That propelled the Falcons to the lead, which ultimately resulted in them achieving their first victory of the season.
Through the air, Hurts completed 22 of 28 passes for 170 yards, a touchdown, and an interception. On the ground, he rushed for 13 carries for 85 yards and scored a touchdown for the Eagles. DeVonta Smith added 76 yards and a touchdown on seven carries, while Saquon Barkley finished with 95 yards on 22 carries. Barkley's total number of carries was 22. While the Eagles were on their final offensive drive, they had the opportunity to run out the clock, but they were forced to settle for a field goal just before the two-minute warning. Because of this, they were only able to maintain a six-point lead, which did not close the door for the Falcons.
It was Cousins' first game with the Falcons, which he played in after signing a contract with the team during the offseason of the previous year. He completed 20 of 29 passes for 241 yards and two touchdowns in the victory. Darnell Mooney had three receptions for 88 yards and a touchdown, and Bijan Robinson contributed 97 yards on 14 attempts. Darnell Mooney also had a touchdown.
