Match summary
Julio Jones greeted his new head coach in the best possible way by giving the Atlanta Falcons a first win this season.
In his first game after taking over from Dan Quinn, Raheem Morris saw the Falcons sign a 40-23 win over the Minnesota Vikings.
The wide receiver was sensational in the win with two touchdowns and a 137-yard harvest.
Quarterback Matt Ryan also threw a touchdown pass to Calvin Ridley and Hayden Hurst to put the Falcons now 1-5 this season.
The Vikings also have the same record with this setback.
Kirk Cousins had a difficult start to the game with three interceptions. He joined Adam Thielen for his seventh touchdown of the campaign, a peak among receivers on the circuit.
Justin Jefferson was still the Vikings’ most productive receiver with 166 yards and two touchdowns.
The Titans are breaking the backs of the Texans
Derrick Henry scored his third touchdown of the game on first possession in overtime, and the Tennesee Titans handed the Houston Texans a heartbreaking 42-36 loss.
The Titans remain unbeaten after five games this season.
In an absolutely insane intra-divisional duel, Ryan Tannehill joined AJ Brown in the end zone for the tying touchdown with 16 seconds left in the fourth quarter.
Henry totaled 212 rushing yards, including 94 on a single play leading to a touchdown, in addition to adding 52 receiving yards, all from a single catch in overtime.
After winning their first game after their head coach Bill O’Brien was fired, the Texans are down to 1-5 after six games this season.
