Raheem Morris made it clear who he believed deserved credit for Falcons' upset win

The Atlanta Falcons had no shortage of winners against the Los Angeles Rams. Bijan Robinson's historic season and Raheem Morris' job security instantly jump to the top of the list, but the list doesn't even come remotely close to ending there because of how many players actually stepped up.

However, Xavier Watts and Jessie Bates III are certainly two players who deserve their flowers. The safety duo combined for 12 tackles, four pass breakups, and all three interceptions of Matthew Stafford, including Bates' 34-yard pick six in the second quarter, which led Morris to praise the pair.
