Falcons' Mohamed Sanu: Hauls in winning pass against Packers

Sanu snagged nine of 10 targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over Green Bay.

Analysis:

Much of the attention Sanu receives following Sunday's game will be in regards to his game-winning touchdown catch in the back of the end zone. Rightfully so, but it'd be a mistake to neglect how important he was throughout that entire do-or-die drive. Matt Ryan targeted Sanu six times on that fateful drive, connecting five times for 50 yards and the score. Sanu has now been targeted 10 times in two of his past three games, scoring in both contests. For comparison, Sanu reached double-digit targets just once in his four seasons in Cincinnati.
