Ryan became the first quarterback in eight years to throw for a touchdown with his first pass, Michael Turner rushed for a team-record 220 yards and the Atlanta Falcons put Michael Vick in their rearview mirror with a 34-21 victory over the Detroit Lions on Sunday.
“We wanted a fast start, and I thought we did that,” said Mike Smith, who had never been a head coach at any level until the Falcons gave him a shot.
