The Atlanta Falcons stood toe to toe with the Commanders for most of the afternoon, but a goal-line interception by the offense and fourth-down penalty against the defense gave the win to Washington.

Only the Falcons can make you feel like you’ve lost twice in one game

The Atlanta Falcons just put on a masterclass on how to completely give away an NFL game.

You mean to tell me the #Falcons averaged nearly 7 yards per carry and ran for 167 yards against a top defense and STILL LOST??
Get Mariota out of here, man.

Every single Falcons running back averaged 4.7 or more yards per carry and Arthur Smith didn't use any of them at the goal line with the game on the line. He's just like Kyle Shanahan.

Horrible penalty. Horrible way to end a game.
— Jamal Anderson (@jamthedirtybird) November 27, 2022
And of course they run into the kicker. This team is not talented and can ill afford to be stupid. Case in point.

And then you rough the kicker to end the game. Just horrible.

Tyler Allgeier is the #Falcons best RB idc idc
— Aaron Freeman (@falcfans) November 27, 2022
Lol lost the game because you run into the kicker.
— Kevin Keneely (@KevinKeneely1) November 27, 2022
Fourth game this year that Mariota commits a turnover in a crucial moment that would lose the game.
— Scott Carasik (@CarasikS) November 27, 2022
Tampa Bay is hellbent on keeping the Falcons in this aren’t they? Lol
— Ev Glaze (@Everett_G07) November 27, 2022
Bucs so bad this season that they keep giving @AtlantaFalcons fans hope 🤦🏾♂️ #Dirtybirds

Falcons falling further behind in the Wild Card race but losing no ground in the NFC South race tells you just how sad this division is in 2022 https://t.co/HXARcDoDC7
