ATLANTA (AP) — Anyone who watched the Atlanta Falcons over the past few seasons could recognize their biggest shortcoming.
The lack of a first-rate quarterback.
Kirk Cousins has been just what they needed.
Cousins threw three more touchdown passes and the Falcons strengthened their hold on first place in the NFC South with a 27-21 victory Sunday over the struggling Dallas Cowboys, who took their third straight setback and lost quarterback Dak Prescott to a hamstring injury.
