The major flaw with this theory is that they don't take into account the gasses released by the plants that the dinosaurs eat as they decompose. They also don't take into account the CO2 that plants absorb as they grow new material to replace the material eaten by the dinorsaurs.

Humans on the other hand release new CO2 that was previously being stored in the Earth.
