Matt Bryant was good when it counted and the Falcons are still unbeaten because of it. Bryant booted a 55-yard field goal with a second left to lift Atlanta to a 23-20 win over upset-minded Oakland.

The Falcons improved to 6-0. Bryant had his string of 23 straight successful field goal attempts snapped earlier in the game when he missed from 43 yards. Matt Ryan got the Falcons in position for the win, after Darren McFadden's 2-yard touchdown run tied the score for Oakland with 40 seconds left. Atlanta and Houston are the only unbeaten teams left in the NFL.
