ATLANTA — From Washington's first possession to the decisive play in the final minute, Atlanta's defense kept finding ways to get its hands on the ball. One of five rookies to start for the defense made the biggest play of the game. Desmond Trufant deflected Kirk Cousins' pass on a potential winning 2-point conversion with 18 seconds remaining, and the Falcons edged the Redskins 27-26 on Sunday.
