That shouldn't be surprising. It's the Falcons - they are going to put up 200 yards rushing on you. Thing is though, they don't usually win despite all of those yards, because they are a fairly one-dimensional team.

Our defense screwed up, but it wasn't on the ground - it was in the air. Let Vick and Dunn get their yards between the 20s, but you can't let Vick throw two 15+ yard TD passes.

Yeah. With this game, they now have 7 games with 200+ rushing yards ... damn!
