The Atlanta Falcons ended their four-game losing streak with a narrow 15-9 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, but concerns about quarterback Kirk Cousins' performance linger. Cousins completed 11 of 17 passes for 112 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, continuing a troubling trend with nine interceptions in his last five games. The Falcons leaned heavily on their running game, with Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier combining for 34 carries, and Cousins did not throw on first down in the first half for the first time in his career. Coach Raheem Morris emphasized the need for Cousins to improve, especially in decision-making.
- Kirk Cousins continues to struggle with decision-making and consistency.
