GLENDALE, Ariz. — Cornerback C.J. Henderson secured the Atlanta Falcons’ Week 16 victory against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday at State Farm Stadium with a fourth-quarter interception that stopped the opposing offense from tying up the game in the final two minutes.
Why it’s important: The Falcons won back-to-back games for the second time this season. It was the first time the wins were in consecutive weeks, though. Because the last time Atlanta won back-to-back games was in Weeks 4 and 6, sandwiching a Week 5 bye. Although the Falcons are eliminated from the playoffs, they want to end the season on a good note, which would include winning games they should, such as Sunday’s against the Cardinals.
