ORLANDO -- A veteran NFL scout summed up Matt Ryan's showing Thursday night with a few simple words.
``Matt looked bad,'' the scout said. ``No poise.''
Indeed, the guy they call ``Matty Ice'' was rather cold in the most important of four preseason games. The dress rehearsal for the first-team offense concluded with Ryan completing 12 of 22 passes for 129 yards, no touchdowns, an interception, and a passer rating of 53.
The interception occurred in the red zone on third down from the Dolphins' 8-yard line. He appeared to stare down target Jacob Tamme, which led to an easy pick for safety Reshad Jones.
