After a slow start, the Falcons offense stepped up a gear late in the first half. Kirk Cousins systematically picked apart the Steelers defense, helped by a key catch from Ray-Ray McCloud, and capped the attack by finding the completely free Kyle Pitts for Atlanta’s first touchdown of the season.
Pitts has two catches for 18 yards and a touchdown in the first half. Cousins has thrown passes for 136 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Watch the play, shared on the team’s Twitter account, below:
