After the Falcons tied the game at 14, the Vikings took control of the game. They scored on a 13-yard run by Teddy Bridgewater than added a Blair Walsh field goal to make it 24-14 at the half. Another Walsh field goal in the third quarter made it 27-14.

That’s when the Falcons stepped up their game. Matt Ryan found Devin Hester for a 36-yard touchdown to make it 27-21. Then, after a stop, Antone Smith took a hand-off and bounced outside for a 48-yard touchdown run, his second of the season (he had a 38-yard touchdown run in their 56-14 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week).

You can see Smith’s run below.
