Falcons snap Texans’ win streak 21-19

The Atlanta Falcons edged the Houston Texans 21-19, taking the AFC South team off its two-game winning streak.

Younghoe Koo hit a 37-yard field goal as time expired, and the Atlanta Falcons ended the two-game winning streak of the Houston Texans 21-19 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium Sunday in Week 5.

Quarterback Desmond Ridder led Atlanta on a 10-play, 56-yard drive to setup the Falcons for the winning field goal. The second-year signal caller went 28-of-37 for 329 yards and a touchdown while also rushing four times for 10 yards and a touchdown.

The Texans defense allowed 447 yards total offense, but managed to recover two of the Falcons’ three fumbles. Ridder did not take a sack and finished the game with a 111.2 passer rating.
