Kirk Cousins’ tenure with the Atlanta Falcons will be regarded as a big disappointment when fans dive into the history books years from now, but the 37-year-old quarterback can still channel his inner Captain Kirk under the right conditions. He and his teammates stunned the home crowd in Raymond James Stadium on Thursday night, handing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a devastating 29-28 loss.

Cousins made a couple of clutch throws on the final drive, overcoming what were seemingly insurmountable odds, and positioned the Falcons for a thrilling comeback win over their divisional rival. Zane Gonzalez capped off the heroic fourth quarter with a 43-yard field goal as time expired.
