Falcons aprietan carrera por la NFC Sur con triunfo sobre Saints
ATLANTA -- Deion Jones realizó una gran intercepción saltando en las diagonales con 1:25 por jugar y los Atlanta Falcons se llevaron una victoria crucial, 20-17, sobre los New Orleans Saints este jueves por la noche, apretando la carrera de tres equipos por el título de la NFC Sur.
Matt Ryan se sacudió tres intercepciones para guiar a los Falcons a un gol de campo de 52 yardas de Matt Bryant con 3:49 por jugar, rompiendo un empate a 17 puntos.
Los Saints (9-4) estaban en posición de asegurar la victoria, avanzando hasta la yarda 11 de Atlanta luego que Drew Brees convirtió en cuarta y 1 en una jugada directa. En segunda oportunidad, Brees intentó conectarse con el ala cerrada Josh Hill en las diagonales.
Jones tenía otra idea. Saltó para realizar la intercepción, cayendo sobre su espalda pero sin soltar el balón. Los Falcons (8-5) se colocaron una victoria detrás de los líderes divisionales Saints con tres semanas por jugar.
