Rather than attempt a sideline route that would have allowed a receiver to get out of bounds and stop the clock, Cousins found London for a 14-yard gain over the middle to set up a dramatic sprint to the line of scrimmage to stop the clock, which Atlanta did with two seconds remaining.

Kirk Cousins has found his comfort zone in his new Atlanta Falcons offense. That exciting realization came in the second quarter of Cousins’ record-setting 36-30 overtime win over Tampa Bay on Thursday night.

The Falcons are 3-2 now and sit at the top of the NFC South. Every single game Atlanta has played has been decided by one score or less. Atlanta has had three clutch 4th quarter drives in the last four games that have either tied or won the game.
