FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- The numbers don’t lie. Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan knows it.
In Ryan's past three meetings against the Philadelphia Eagles (including the playoffs), the Falcons are 0-3. In those games, the Falcons averaged 12.3 points per game while scoring two touchdowns in nine total trips to the red zone. Ryan completed 4 of 17 passes (19 yards) in the red zone with one touchdown, one interception, two sacks and a passer rating of 34.7.
On top of that, Ryan and the Falcons are coming off a shaky season-opening performance against the Minnesota Vikings.
