Matt Ryan in the Clutch

[Roger Baltrey]

How many times have they stalled in the Red Zone at the end of games? Guy just doesn't have the knack. :facepalm:

 

[jesscolb]

Great from the 20 to 20 yard line but bad in the red zone......indecisive, not accurate in the red zone......It is one of the main reasons the Falcons are 1-3.....

 

[the addict]

Also depends on opponent.

He has some 4th quarter comebacks, but not if you put the elite across from him:

Peyton
Brees
Arod
Brady




Like him too....not arrogant or attention whore.

Still has a long career....people said same thing about manning at one time.

 

[Roger Baltrey]

Not as smart or decisive as manning but same type of QB.

 

[LuvThemDogs]

The guys were open and he made really bad throws. Except one where the ball was in the guy's hands and he dropped it. But the other were uncatchable....

 

[jesscolb]

The Saints, Dolphins, and Pats games have been lost this year due to poor quarterback play in the red zone....same thing in the NFC championship game last year

 

[ldabdou]

I personally think his immobile knee hinders him. He just doesn't look comfortable...

 

[bulldog]

agree, he and the coaching staff seem to call shitty plays inside the 10.

 

[jesscolb]

Not to mention the 4th and 2 in the 2nd quarter on the Pats 7 yard line with Roddy White wide open and he overthrows him

Didn't just overthrow him, threw the ball so badly White didn't even try to get a hand on it because it was so far over his head. Choked every really critical throw in this game.

 

[Iminforabuck]

He didn't choke on every one. That other tight end dropped one in the end zone that would have made it 30-27 and could have won it for them.

He looked bad tonight on a few of them, but it's not just him. When you have no running game it ain't easy to find open peeps.

 

[The other MC]

Except for that one, you know, that hit his receiver right in the hands with 2 minutes left in the game. He catches that the game goes overtime.

Correct.....like I said

 

[Scrapman]

All i know when you have King TOM taking points BET on him to cover or win s/u a riduculous 95% win record as a dog!

 

[gardenweasel]

supposition, but,wonder what happens if there was some way to switch the receiving corps` of the two teams?.....

i can`t even imagine brady with that type of arsenal...that`s really frightening...

 

[kellyindallas]

Ryan is not mentally tough, period. It shows time and time again in clutch situations. Brady places the ball where only his schlub receivers can get it. Ryan throws up jump balls and hopes for the best.

 

[yanno]

So how about the week coming up? A good bet vs the J-E-T-S (say) with a teaser hooked with Denver?

Thanks for any ideas! :0008

 

[Jorgesca]

You can stop comparing Matty to all time greats if you want a fair comparison.

 

[yanno]

All I want to know is if he can beat the crap out of the Jets on MNF this week.

You can stop comparing Matty to all time greats if you want a fair comparison.

 

[Scrapman]

ya know what ? I just figured out THE Falcons are no better than Eagles 1-3 Raiders 1-3 LOL

BUT all in all much tougher schedule than others have faced @ Saints @ Dolphins vs Patriots
