2010 | Week 10 vs. Baltimore<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Remember what we said about comeback victories? Atlanta and Baltimore both entered a Week 10, Thursday Night Football matchup with identical 6-2 records. This occasion was truly a ‘Prime Time’ affair as the Falcons honored the legendary Deion Sanders with an induction into the team’s Ring of Honor. With Sanders in attendance as part of NFL Network’s coverage of the game, The Falcons took an early 13-0 lead and would have a 20-7 advantage early in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Atlanta saw that 13-point edge turn into a 21-20 deficit with just 1:05 remaining in the game. Ryan would hit Michael Jenkins on the sideline for a 24-yard gain and then White over the middle for 15 yards. A defensive pass interference call moved the ball to the Ravens’ 33-yard line and then the throwback magic struck again. On first-and-10 with 24 seconds remaining, Ryan rolled to his left and connected with an open and in stride White who raced into the end zone to give Atlanta the 26-21 victory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

2012 | Week 4 vs. Carolina<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Falcons opened the 2012 season looking to take the next step after back-to-back playoff seasons each ended in one-and-done fashion. They got off to a good start, routing the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1, intercepting Peyton Manning three times and outlasting the Broncos in Week 2 and throttling the Chargers in Week 3. The team entered its Week 3 matchup with the Carolina Panthers riding high off those impressive wins. Like many division contests, this one would prove to be a tight one. The game saw four lead changes in the first three quarters and would feature two more in the fourth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Panthers held the Falcons to a field goal with just under five minutes left in the fourth and it looked like Carolina would hand Atlanta its first loss of the season, bleeding the clock down inside the two-minute warning. Things looked bleak for Atlanta, but John Abraham stopped Cam Newton short of the first down on a third-and-2 play, better yet he also forced Newton to fumble. The Panthers recovered the fumble but were forced to punt. Carolina did all they could to keep the Falcons at bay, downing the ball at the 1-yard line with just 59 seconds remaining. On the Falcons first play, Ryan dropped back into the middle of the end zone and launched a ball to midfield, White leaped up over Haruki Nakamura to pull the ball down at the Panthers 40. Two short passes later, Bryant jogged onto the field, shook off an attempted icing, and calmly sent a 40-yard field goal through the uprights as time expired to lift Atlanta to a 30-28 win.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
