Mike Davis is coming off of what was an uneven performance for the Atlanta Falcons in week one. Davis finished the game with 49-rushing yards averaging 3.3-yards-per-carry. An underwhelming stat line that doesn’t tell the full story for Davis.

Davis and the Falcons running game came out hot fueling two impressive drives that stalled out deep into Eagles’ territory.
