If one single game could embody what it’s like to be a Falcons fan, Sunday’s 37-34 overtime win over the Panthers was about as close as it gets. With first place in the NFC South on the line, it seemed like neither team wanted to win. Finally, after a second missed kick by the Panthers, Younghoe Koo hit the game-winning field goal to end the madness.
Going forward, things will only get tougher for Atlanta. Expectations will create added pressure, but the players are happy to be where they are.
