A melee breaks out along the Falcons sideline, and who's right in the middle of it?

DeAngelo Hall, of course.

"I was pretty sure," said Atlanta receiver Roddy White, a former teammate, "that he had something to do with it."

What Hall desperately wanted to do Sunday was beat the Falcons. Michael Turner made sure that wouldn't happen with a season-high 166 yards rushing, including two long touchdowns, and Atlanta snapped a two-game losing streak by beating Hall and the Washington Redskins 31-17.
