Turner, Ryan rally Falcons past Eagles

MICHAEL VICK had a rough return to Atlanta last night, suffering a concussion along with defeat as the Falcons beat the Philadelphia Eagles 35-31 in the Georgia Dome on Sunday night.

The former Atlanta quarterback left the game to a chorus of boos after shipping a series of knocks thatculminated in a collision with his own team mate Todd Herremans, forcing him out of the game while the visitors had the lead.

Mike Kafka took over for Vick and finished a touchdown drive that gave Philadelphia a 31-21 lead but running back Michael Turner and quarterback Matt Ryan inspired the Falcons to steadily claw back the deficit and ultimately edge ahead in the dying minutes.
