Two Bijan Robinson TDs put Falcons up 15-10

Falcons running back Bijan Robinson had one touchdown through the first five weeks of the regular season, but he has doubled that number in less than half in Carolina.

Robinson ran for his second touchdown with just over six minutes to play in the first half. The Panthers got a low block on the run, so the Falcons opted to go for two from the 1-yard line and Tyler Allgeier’s run put them up 15-10.

Robinson had a five-yard scoring run in the first quarter and he has seven carries for 37 yards. The second score was set up by a 52-yard catch-and-run by Kyle Pitts and Kirk Cousins, 8 of 15 for 101 yards.

The Panthers opened the scoring with a Diontae Johnson touchdown and they scored a field goal on a Ray-Ray McCloud fumble in the second quarter, but they will likely need more touchdowns to outlast the Falcons on Sunday.
