Atlanta Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez had the last score of the first half when he made a nimble reception in the back of the end zone for a score. He then started the scoring in the second half of the game with a 17-yard grab just a couple minutes into the game. The Falcons lead the Eagles, 21-10.
Tony Gonzalez Grabs 2nd TD After Michael Vick Interception
The Falcons were in position to make that score because of Michael Vick's poor throw. After the Falcons punted on their opening drive of the second half, Vick lined up in shotgun formation and directed his pass to Jason Avant. However unfortunate for him, the Falcons' Kelvin Hayden stepped in front of the ball and took control of it for a two-yard gain.
That led to Matt Ryan making a short pass to Michael Turner for 17 yards before he found Gonzalez for the touchdown.
