They play for each other. And I can’t say enough about the coordinator. I can’t say enough about the players. I can’t say enough about the offensive staff. I can’t say enough good things about our organization and what they do for us. It didn’t start with me. It’s been going on for a long time, and I’m extremely excited to be a part of.” Morris also discussed Cousins historic night of throwing over 500 yards.  “We’re just scratching the surface with him,” Morris said. “This game is all about confidence. This game is going out there, getting better every single week. And that’s what he’s been doing since he’s been back. He’s coming off a significant injury, and I’ve watched him get better every single week.”     The post Thursday Night Thriller: Atlanta Falcons Defeat Tampa Bay Bucs In Overtime Showdown appeared first on Atlanta Daily World.
