The Atlanta Falcons pulled off an amazing win on Monday night, pulling off an incredible 22-21 comeback victory over the Philadelphia Eagles to potentially save their season.
With 1:42 left in the game, the Eagles faced a third down and Saquon Barkley inexcusably dropped an easy pass that would’ve ended the game. It forced the Eagles to kick a field goal to go up 21-15.
The Falcons got the ball back and Kirk Cousins marched down the field and scored the go-ahead touchdown to Drake London with 34 seconds left.
The win was the seventh most improbable victory according to NFL Next Gen Stats. The Falcons had just a 0.7% chance to win the game with 1:56 left in the fourth quarter.
