The Falcons get the game rolling with Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier

The final statistics of the running game included 95 rushing yards for Robinson with an average of 6.3 yards per carry and two rushing touchdowns (his first multi-rushing touchdown performance of his career). He also added 10 yards through the air for 105 yards from scrimmage. Strangely, Allgeier had so many meters on the ground. He averaged 5.8 yards per carry in the game and added a touchdown himself.

According to the broadcast, this is the first time since October 2006 that the Falcons have had two rushers with more than 100 yards rushing. The last two to do that for Atlanta? Michael Vick and Jerious Norwood. On Sunday evening there was a double victory between Robinson and Allgeier.

“(We) just kept hitting, hitting, hitting,” Allgeier said after the game, “and we slowly started to wear them down.”

After the game, head coach Raheem Morris said the Falcons' last two wins showcased an offense that can win when relying on two different styles of play. Last Thursday, Cousins' 509 passing yards added to the Falcons' win column in an overtime win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This Sunday, so did the team's 198 rushing yards.

“I think we just take what (the defense) gives us,” Morris said.

Regardless of why it happened, the Falcons needed an offensive performance like this. It was a performance that resulted in a decisive victory, their first of 2024.

“Sometimes,” Cousins ​​said, “you throw to score and run to win, and the ability to play the football makes a difference.”
