Falcons Beat Cowboys 27-21 Amid Key Injuries

Kirk Cousins led the Atlanta Falcons to a 27-21 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, maintaining their first place in the NFC South with a 6-3 record. Cousins was highly efficient, completing 19 of 24 passes for 222 yards and three touchdowns to Drake London, Darnell Mooney, and Ray-Ray McCloud. The Cowboys, now on a three-game losing streak, lost quarterback Dak Prescott to a hamstring injury and struggled with ineffective plays and poor coverage. Cooper Rush replaced Prescott, but despite a late rally, the Falcons secured the win by recovering an onside kick. The Falcons' defense also played a crucial role, recording three sacks against a Dallas offensive line that has struggled throughout the season. Atlanta's victory was marked by key performances from Tyler Allgeier and Bijan Robinson, though it was overshadowed by injuries to London and Grady Jarrett.
