NFC South - Atlanta Falcons

For the past 2 seasons the Atlant Falcons have lead the NFL in total rushing yards. Last season Vick and Dunn each ran for over a thousand yards. With one of the contributors to the Falcons rushing attack about to go to jail for the rest of him life. The Falcons now have a chance to become more of a 2 dimensional team.

Dunn commented, "Even if Mike was here, he'd be the first to say that Coach (Bobby) Petrino's offense would give us our best chance to have a balanced attack on offense."

Petrino new offensive scheme was going to put Vick's best assets to use like his cannon arm and his legs, but now they have to rely on backup QB Joey Harrington. And since Dunn just underwent back surgery, they will be using the ground game less.

"Petrino, who had a 41-9 record at Louisville the last four years, is renowned for deploying a spread offense that stretches the field.

With Vick unlikely to play this season and possibly facing the end of his career, Petrino has turned to Harrington, whose career record of 23-43 raises a red flag.

Even so, Petrino believes his scheme -- along with a receiving corps of tight end Alge Crumpler and wideouts Joe Horn, Roddy White and Michael Jenkins -- will restore confidence in an offense that lacks identity without Vick."
