The Falcons needed a few calls to tie the game, then they got a break to keep the Bills from winning it.

The Falcons tied the game on a Steven Jackson touchdown run (following a pass interference call in the end zone), but the Bills still had a good chance to leave with a win.

Bills wide receiver Stevie Johnson fumbled away a reception that would have put his team in position for a reasonable game-winning field goal, leaving the game tied at 31 at the end of regulation in Canada.

Now the crowd at the Rogers Center gets to see a little free football.
