Falcons with huge test on the road against tough Commander team next week.
A win would be huge with Steelers in Atlanta the following week.

Falcons stay alive at 5-6, but may have lost Kyle Pitts and Ta’Quon Graham.
Commanders up next who have been playing very well and get Chase Young back.

Falcons will win this game. Go to 5-6 and set up a HUGE matchup with the commanders for a tie-breaker when it comes to playoff positioning. Commanders playing great football so this will be a tough matchup. Good win for the team today.

Early indications are that Kyle Pitts did NOT tear any ligaments in his knee, sources tell @theScore.
An MRI in the morning will confirm, but the #Falcons remain optimistic about their star TE.
