Michael Turner is full throttle right now for the Atlanta Falcons

Michael Turner was off to a rough start to the 2009 season but he has exploded the last two weeks for the Falcons.  Against the Saints and Redskins, Turner has carried the ball 38 times for 317 yards (8.3 ypc) with 3 TD runs.  He has also caught 2 passes for 14 yards the last two weeks.  The Falcons’ offense is now really starting to get back to full speed with Turner rocking right now.  His recent surge has really improved his season numbers which looked a little lethargic for him.  He has now carried the ball 156 times for 720 yards (4.6 ypc) with 10 TD runs this season.  He has also caught 5 passes for 35 yards (7.0 avg) so far this year.  Turner gives the Falcons’ offense balance which makes the game easier for QB Matt Ryan so they hope he keeps up the good work the rest of the way.
