Devonta Freeman first Falcons back to string together 3 100 yard games since Michael Turner

The headline says everything about the company Freeman is keeping, don't you think?

The Atlanta Falcons haven't exactly had a stellar passing game the last three weeks, but what they have had is one of the most consistent running backs in the NFL doing fantastic work on the ground. I refer, of course, to Devonta Freeman.

First time #Falcons have had a 100-yard rusher in 3 straight games since 2009, when "The Burner" Turner had 151, 166 and 111 in Weeks 8-10.

Freeman's keeping elite company here, considering Michael Turner is one of the three or four best backs in Falcons history, and certainly one of the most bruising.
