 It's gonna be interesting to see how they come out this week. They got beat up a little bit last week. They're grinding out there, I'll tell you. So one thing about this team, they're grinding. They're not quitting there because we're not dead yet. Matt Ryan says, listen, there's still a lot to play for. You still have hope. Guys want to win, playoffs, no playoffs, whatever like that. Guys still want to win at the end of the day. I mean, you haven't won in Mercedes-Benz Stadium this year. We got to win at home. Go win this football game on Sunday at home and take care of your business. Arthur Smith, he knows that Detroit will come ready to play. They got a team that's coming in that's coming off a huge win for them. These guys play hard. They ain't got nothing to lose. They just try to get a win. They do everything that they possibly can to try to score on you because that's all they got. I think this is a pride game, pride in being a professional. Take care of your business here. Here comes Matt Ryan making his 220th career start today. He's 4-2 all-time against Detroit. First down in 10, play fake on the first play. Ryan rolls back to the left. Looks, now will be taken down on the tackle. Coming through the backside to knock him down. No game on the play. Play fake by Ryan on second down. Matt up in the pocket in trouble. He'll be sacked. Detroit bringing five. Ryan in trouble, sacked again. Multiple rushes, not just four, but five men coming in the pressure. And they got to Ryan. Not much with the Falcons. We'll see what Detroit's got under the hood with Tim Boyle. Second start of his career, first in 10 for Detroit. And on the first down throw, he hits Josh Reynolds. Drops back, looks right. Going to throw that side, the ball is caught. And it'll be a first down. St. Brown, the grab, he snapped the ball. He'll look left, throw left, and open. And caught is St. Brown, and stretched beyond the pylon. 26-yard try for Riley Patterson, who is 7 for 7. His longest is 49 against Minnesota. A virtual chip shot, and it is good. So Detroit on the board first, 325 to play in this first period. The Lions three, the Falcons nothing. Atlanta going to go to work here. Ryan takes a snap, quick throw. That's Hayden Hurst. And he'll slide for 9. Falcons going to pick up the pace here a little bit, it looks like. Play fake by Matt. Pressure coming, shoots it across the middle. That's Gage at the 27. Tackled right there, it'll be another Atlanta first down. A throw of 15. Here's Ryan making a quick throw. This is Pitz the catch. Stiff arm at the 10. Falls forward to the 6, it'll be third and one. Ryan going to toss. Patterson going to go left side. He's going to get the first down. He's going to get the touchdown. Cordero Patterson. And it looked like a kickoff return for him. He just was at top end speed by his second step. It's Cordero Patterson, the touchdown at Atlanta 7. Detroit 3. Lions will start from their 25. Tim Boyle, who's getting a second career start today, has opened 7 for 9 for 36 yards. Shotgun situation for Boyle and the Lions, who trail by 4. He'll throw here on second. And it does a little crossing route. And this is Reynolds trying to spin away. It does, broke through two tackles across midfield. And a first down for Detroit in Atlanta territory. Seven plays. And now here is Jack Fox to punt. Fox waits on the snap from Scott Daly. He'll throw and it's caught. Cordero Hodge, the wide receiver who is a gunner. And Jack Fox threw a dime at it. And Detroit fakes the punt. And they're down to the Atlanta 23 yard line. Straight drop. Boyle looks to throw and caught. Pulled out of the air. St. Brown driving for the end zone. And knocked out of bounds. No, ruled a touchdown. Amon Ross St. Brown into the end zone for the Detroit touchdown on his third scoring grab of the year. So with 3.39 to go in three timeouts, Matt Ryan back to work. Snapped to Ryan, quick throw left side. Zaki is the catch. 35, 39. Before he's finally pulled down in the secondary. Shotgun snap. Give us to Davis out of the pistol. He'll roll to the left side. And out across the 45. Snapped to Ryan. Matt, quick look, throw, middle of the field. Zaki is wide open again. Another first down. Spot around inside Detroit. 40 to 38. Young Wei Ku, who's hit from 53 in this building against Carolina. Snapped from Harris. Morstead's spot kick is away. And it is good. Young Wei Ku from 53. Ties the ball again. 90 seconds into quarter three. Here at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Ryan on first down, quick throw. Kyle pits the catch. At the 19, he will spin across the 20 toward another. First down. Matt takes a snap. Looks, quick throw. Pins the catch. First down, out to the 29. Matt, taking the deep shot now. Going to put pits up to Matt. And makes the catch. What a grab. Down the far sideline again on Melifon Woon. And Matt's got a lot of confidence now in number eight. Young Wei Ku to drive from 48 to give Atlanta the lead. Snapped spot. Kit from Ku is away. And it's circling back and through. Young Wei Ku easily from 48. And Atlanta takes the lead. 13 to 10. Tomorrow Williams opens in the backfield. He'll be the running back for Tim Boyle. And the first down give will be Williams trying to get to the left side. He does that in four. Reynolds stays in the game. Boyle wants to throw here. Going to slip into Reynolds' little screen to the left side. Up near the midfield line. And I mean, Dante Baller handed out a hammer. Play fake by Boyle. Trying to set, moving his feet to his left. Throws wide open and caught. And St. Brown inside the 15 helped out of bounds at the 13-yard line. 37-yard try now for Patterson, who's perfect on the year, to tie the game. The kick is away. And it is good. Brings us to the end of the third. And we are tied at 13. Here's Matt Ryan, 12-17 for 153. They're going to hand it to Davis on first down. He'll sneak through a crack at the right, bounce out toward the right side, and drive it toward the 38. It's a gain of nine before Walker makes the stop, second to one. Davis stays in as the running back. Here's Ryan from the gun on a fresh set of downs. Matt flips it to Davis on the right side, made a man miss at the 45, lowered to shoulder, and drives it to the 48. Ryan in the gun, three to the right, to the left. Matt up in the pocket. Not going to zip it, and it's caught Pitz first down at the 20, inside the 15, and tackled at the 12 as Kyle Pitz. Here's Ryan, little play fake. Throws in zone. Hearst caught it, touchdown Atlanta. Had the linebacker Harris, or defensive end, Harris trailing with it. And Hayton Hearst catches the touchdown. 10 plays, 71 yards. Ryan to Hayton Hearst, who got both feet in with 1,304 to play in the ballgame. Boyle under center, Jamal Williams is the running back for Detroit. And all white with silver helmets today. Play fake, Boyle dropping back. Fowler almost got there, and the throw is caught. That's Josh Reynolds. This is kind of how this defense has played it. They've kind of been, been, been, and then don't break. Getting down in that area where you got to shut the door. Two by two look here for Detroit. And the gun is Boyle. He's going to throw. Looks back across the middle and caught, falling down inside the 15. Boyle, Atlanta needs to find a way to shut the door right here. Here goes Reynolds. Oh, and he got crushed. He got blasted. Jalen Hawkins, the first guy in there. Craig Reynolds never got started. Here's Riley Patterson to try and cut into the Atlanta advantage. Snap spot, kick from Patterson is away, and he fires it right through. And the Falcons will start first in 10 at their 25 yard line. It's dirty yards time. So that means you get whatever you can get. Your number one priority is ball security. Detroit's definitely coming. Here's Ryan. Quick throw on the perimeter, needed a block. They got it to Gage, and ball pop loose. And who recovered it? Detroit, yes. Ball pop loose with 2-18 to play, and the Lions have recovered it. Two minutes to go. Falcon lead is forward. Detroit off the game's first turnover. Here is Boyle with Reynolds in the backfield. Detroit's got one time out. Boyle wants to throw the football back across the middle. That's right his tight end. Snap to Boyle. He wants to throw, shoots it in the middle of the field. 85 holding on, and now it's first and goal. St. Brown and Josh Reynolds to the left. Craig Reynolds out of the backfield. Here's Boyle throwing. Intercept it. Boyle, a Lueckin is going to win it for Atlanta. And why? Because pressure came from Atlanta's front. And Boyle, a Lueckin stepped in front. A guy, I will tell you, got snubbed by not going to the Pro Bowl. He should be in the Pro Bowl. They just don't know his name. It's Boyle, a Lueckin, and he just saved the game. And Atlanta's going home a winner. 20 to 16 is the final. The interception by a Lueckin seals the deal.
