I'd rather miss the playoffs than reach the playoffs and get embarrassed in the first round every year.
Ryan plays too much like a pussy. With those type of playmakers surrounding him, they should be able to put up points in the playoffs. The Giants D played well, but not shut out well.
No, but I'll take the erratic guy who can step up when he gets into the tournament over the steady guy who wilts on the big stage year after year.
Ryan sucks. I don't want to hear anymore about this faggot. he's had more weapons than most teams who get in the playoffs and he menstruates the bed every time.
Not at all. You have to take shots down the field at some point when you're trailing. Even down multiple scores Ryan was dinking and dunking down the field. WGAF if you throw a pick in that scenario? Make a play.
I agree with this. Stafford really didn't have a bad game, he just made some errors while trying to help his team keep pace with an offensive juggernaut. Ryan...he came up small in every respect.
Sad performance by the Falcons, this is the fucking playoffs not week 2 regular season step it the fuck up Matt Ryan. Another thing, someone needs to let the Falcons know this is not Madden, you don't go for it on 4th down all the time when your offensive line has been getting dominated all game long.
So do their opponents. If you guys want to believe Mark Sanchez is better then Matt Ryan go ahead. Im a Sanchez supporter but thats a whole other level of kool aid you guys got going on.
Pretty good. He got a shot to be in the playoffs while Mark Sanchez is sitting on the couch. Just had to go against a tough team at home that ended our season weeks ago.
I don't care if Ryan is better than Sanchez if he doesn't have the mental toughness to step it up in the postseason, he completely shit the bed when its win or go home time and to put up 2 points with those offensive weapons is so embarrassing I rather miss the playoffs than perform that putrid on a national stage.
The difference is that Sanchez can be great. He needs a lot of work, but you can see it in him. Ryan? Not so much, but not a bad QB by any means.
my point is that these types of threads are pointless. they are just here to try and make people feel better about not being in the playoffs at all. also, when did people start referring to the playoffs as "the tournament?"
I'm still not a fan of crediting "Wins or Losses" to one player, but yeah Matt Ryan played terrible. Win as a team, lose as team.
Ryan is more polished than Sanchez, but if Cheez's skills ever catch up to his moxie, we'll be very glad we have him instead of Matty Iced.
