London's first touchdown was a 1-yard reception in the first quarter. Both catches required London to go up and over a Patriots cornerback Marcus Jones, who is 5-foot-8 and 188 pounds. London is 6-foot-5 and 215 pounds.
"I can honestly say his catch radius is remarkable," Jones said. "He's a great player, and he made a lot of plays."
In the second half, the Falcons added another 158 yards on offense, 45 of which were rushing. Atlanta was scoreless in the third quarter but posted a 38-yard field goal and London's final touchdown in the fourth quarter. The point-after attempt was no good, which prevented the tie and solidified the loss.
Still, London again had to go up and over a Patriots defender to secure his touchdown. This time, it was cornerback Carlton Davis III who was in between London and his an 8-yard reception. Davis is 6-foot-1 and 206 pounds.
"What (London) did today," Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said, "was come out and played with uncommon effort."
All three of London's touchdown receptions were highlight-reel worthy.
"The man above: God-given talent," London said. "I just let my body take over."
Even with that casual claim, London didn't smile once during his postgame interview. Because although he did everything he could to help the Falcons in New England, the result was what it was. Atlanta is now 3-5 and remains third in the NFC South.
Those team details dictated London's overall emotion more than his own success.
"Terrible," London said. "I do not feel good. We just lost the game."
