Excerpt:

Sunday night’s 19-13 win over the Cowboys moved the Falcons to 8-0, with a four-game lead in the NFC South that could be sewn up by Thanksgiving. Whether they’re missing field goals (two rare ones by Matt Bryant), or not able to play they way they were accustomed to, there’s still a sense that they’re going to win, a calm exuded by coach Mike Smith and quarterback Matt Ryan. The four-minute drill they ran to kill clock, move chains and get the final field goal was a thing of beauty, a testament to taking what was there, and letting the other guy flinch. Because through half the season, the Falcons haven’t yet. Here are five more things we learned during Sunday Night Football: 1. The stage was set for the Cowboys to win this one.
