Falcons just received injury update that could derail their momentum against Bills
The Atlanta Falcons just lost star left tackle Jake Matthews against the Bills, which is putting the team's halftime lead at serious risk.
The Atlanta Falcons pulled off a huge 24-14 victory over the Buffalo Bills during primetime on Monday Night Football. The offense shone in the first half, putting up a season high of 21 points and the defense was stifling, holding the Bills starters to their fewest points in a game since Week 4 of the 2024 NFL season.
The Atlanta Falcons received a national audience on Monday night, and for the second time this season, they put on a show in prime time. Atlanta dominated a Buffalo Bills team that many expect to be a Super Bowl contender.
"We played a legit team, so when Penix says that the win makes us legit, it's more that he's giving Buffalo a compliment as opposed to talking about who we are and what we are," Morris said. "But if you can beat a team like Buffalo, you can put yourself up against anybody in the league."
