Eagles CB McKelvin: Falcons are a 'front-runner'

PHILADELPHIA - The Atlanta Falcons entered Sunday's game boasting the league's top offense, but Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Leodis McKelvin felt there was a weakness to exploit.

"I was telling the defense, this is the type of team, they are a front-runner. They are a front-running team," he said. "If you go out there and make some stops, they eventually are going to be dying down."

McKelvin started the game as a spectator due to a hamstring injury but was called into action after fellow corner Nolan Carroll II left with a concussion.
