Week 15 of the NFL season brings a double-header of "Monday Night Football" games, including an exciting matchup between the Atlanta Falcons and the Las Vegas Raiders. With both teams facing challenges, this game is crucial for both sides as they look to stay in the playoff hunt.
The Atlanta Falcons enter Week 15 on a four-game losing streak, desperately needing a win to get back on track. Their most recent loss was a heavy 42-21 defeat at the hands of the Minnesota Vikings. Quarterback Kirk Cousins struggled in the game, completing 23 of 27 passes for 344 yards but throwing two interceptions. Following that loss, the Falcons have dropped from first place in the NFC South and now find themselves one game behind the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Raiders' Quarterback Uncertainty
The Las Vegas Raiders, on the other hand, are also dealing with some struggles of their own. In their Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, quarterback Aidan O'Connell suffered a left knee injury, raising concerns about his availability for the game against the Falcons. If O'Connell is unable to play, Desmond Ridder, the quarterback who started 13 games last season for the Falcons, will face off against his former team. Ridder has played in four games for the Raiders this season, throwing for 239 yards and one touchdown.
