Matt Ryan has been accused of accumulating “empty calories” in a lot of his games during his career in Atlanta while trying to drag a roster full holes to the playoffs every year. No one likes to bring up how clutch he is with 30 fourth-quarter comebacks which ranks eighth all-time. They don’t like to discuss the slew of records he owns in franchise history and the other records he’s on pace to break during his career.
Ryan has dealt with a lot of issues playing for the Falcons whether its front office decisions, a lack of a running game, consistent offensive line play or a defense that leaks points and allows the opposing team to someway find a way to get themselves into a game when Ryan had all but put them away.
