The Atlanta Falcons are back at .500 and have a bit of breathing room atop the NFC South. The first-place Falcons (6-6) continue to struggle with the ball in their hands, but the guys on the other side of the line bailed them out again in an ugly 13-8 win over the New York Jets on Sunday. It was Atlanta's fewest points in a victory since a 10-7 triumph at Tennessee in 2015.
Aaron Rodgers is back at practice, but that doesn't mean he'll be ready to play in 2023.
The rain was falling, penalty flags were flying and the Atlanta Falcons kept slogging away. Desmond Ridder threw a 20-yard pass to MyCole Pruitt in the second quarter for the game's only touchdown and the Falcons took over sole possession of first place in the NFC South with an ugly 13-8 victory over the punchless New York Jets on a dreary Sunday. “You’re in a playoff chase, you’re trying to win a division,” coach Arthur Smith said.
The New York Jets' playoff hopes could get a big boost with a victory Sunday. The Jets (4-7) are mired in a four-game skid that has them second-to-last in the AFC, ahead of only the division rival Patriots (2-9). “I feel like the playoffs are always from Week 1 all the way through,” coach Robert Saleh said Friday.
After the Miami Dolphins dominated the New York Jets last week, Tua Tagovailoa complimented the work of the offense but stressed that they will need him to play better down the stretch of the season. Tagovailoa's 3,177 yards passing are the fourth most in the NFL. Tagovailoa has 10 interceptions on the season, which is tied for the fourth-highest mark in the NFL, and he has turned the ball over four times in the past two games.
