In 2024, the Atlanta Falcons demonstrated a successful run-first strategy under coach Arthur Smith, primarily utilizing the talents of Bijan Robinson, who had a breakout season with 1,456 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns. Tyler Allgeier, although in a reduced role, remained one of the most dependable backups. Robinson's performance placed him among the top backs in the NFL, with notable improvements in his running, pass protection, and receiving capabilities. The strong offensive line contributed to this success, enhancing the team's overall performance throughout the season.
Robinson's one fumble was a high direct snap he couldn't corral, which isn't really his fault and made this offense look far better than it would have with a lesser lead back.
