Falcons WR Darnell Mooney, RB Tyler Allgeier make big plays vs. Saints

The Atlanta Falcons have yet to score an offensive touchdown but they’ve made their share of plays against New Orleans Saints. In the third quarter, wide receiver Darnell Mooney stretched the defense with a 36-yard reception with a defender draped over him.

Cousins threw a nice ball with enough air for Mooney to reach out for the catch. Mooney leads the team with 56 receiving yards on three receptions. Watch the play below, as shared by the team’s Twitter account.

Later on the drive, Cousins connected with running back Tyler Allgeier on third down for an impressive conversion. Allgeier plowed through two Saints defenders to get the Falcons first down.

Atlanta’s ground game has been quiet with just 88 total rushing yards thus far. The Falcons hold a three-point lead over the Saints in the fourth quarter. Watch Allgeier’s third-down conversion below.
