Ryan rallies Falcons, Vick concussed (AP)
ATLANTA (AP)—Michael Vick(notes) and Matt Ryan(notes) met at the center of the field for the coin toss, the former Falcons quarterback embracing the guy who took his place.

Ryan tossed a career-high four touchdown passes, shaking off all the hoopla over Vick coming back to face his old team as Philadelphia’s starter, and rallied Atlanta from a 10-point deficit for a 35-31 victory over the Eagles in a Sunday night thriller. “It was a wild one, for sure, but we hung in there,” Ryan said.
