Kirk Cousins engineered a superb game-winning touchdown drive as the Atlanta Falcons stunned the Philadelphia Eagles with a dramatic 22-21 victory on Monday.
Philadelphia looked to have done enough to preserve their unbeaten start to the season after taking a 21-15 lead at Lincoln Financial Field through Jake Elliott's 28-yard field goal with 1min 39sec remaining.
