Falcons stellar backfield duo should have a big day vs. Cowboys

Atlanta Falcons running backs Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier form one of the NFL’s top running back duos. Their combined 898 rushing yards is the fourth-highest total of any teams’ top two non-quarterback rushers behind the Baltimore Ravens, Detroit Lions, and San Francisco 49ers. They’re so good, in fact, that it requires inventing a new, unique nickname for their complementary skill set.

They should have a favorable matchup in Week 9 because the Dallas Cowboys sport one of the league’s worst run defenses. In rushing yards allowed, they rank 31st.
