The Atlanta Falcons lost a close game against the New Orleans Saints in Week 10, and they had several chances to win but failed in the clutch. After the game, Kirk Cousins was asked about the opportunities the offense had and was honest about what happened, according to Falcons reporter Tori McElhaney.

Cousins has completed 68.3% of his passes for 2,106 yards, 14 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He ranks No. 3 in passing yards and No. 5 in touchdowns league-wide while placing 10th in quarterback rating at 61.2.

Anyone who watched the Atlanta Falcons over the past few seasons could recognize their biggest shortcoming. The lack of a first-rate quarterback.
