xSICKxWITHxITx Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Longest Losing Streaks by a QB to begin PostSeason Career. Matt Ryan 3Peyton Manning 3Randall Cunningham 3Bobby Herbert 3Steve Grogan 3Bert Jones 3Since Merger (1970)Just seen the list on NFL Live thought I would share. Ryan said he was working on his foot work and movement in the pocket. He wants to be sound, fundamentally on his rollouts, drop backs 3,5 and 7. Wants to have this worked out before the start of camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSICKxWITHxITx Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 Later they asked Damion Woody what the Falcons need to do to get over the hump. He said fix the offensive line. He said they got their teeth kicked in by the giants deffenive front. He said the o-line was known for being nasty dirty guys, but took a step back. Marcellus Wiley said same, but went on to say the entire team needs to play at a higher level once in the playoffs. He said they stay at status quo.

A-TowN.- Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I really do believe this is the year Ryan wins a playoff game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethos Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 One thing that worries me is that it seems that were looking ahead. What happens during the regular season is a huge factor in postseason success. I just think the Falcons need to take it one step (game) at a time.

Our oline rarely plays well against playoff-caliber teams and they never even show up in the playoffs. In the past 3 postseasons we've made guys like Darnell Dockett, B.J. Raji, and Rocky Bernard look like defensive players of the year. Smh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamPlayer1 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 These kind of verifiable facts will ensure a small thread response total. It does not fit the Ryan trolls' agenda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayOzOne Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 What's interesting (and encouraging) is that Ryan is the only one of those six to go to the playoffs three of his first four seasons. He's got time to develop, in my personal opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck those 3 never even started another playoff game. The other 2 on the list eventually won in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even more so as a Falcon fan. To the haters of where we are at , it shows that being a doomsayer is unwarranted. I like our position now. We have a lot of room to grow and improve. We have several weaknesses. We are still in better shape then anytime in our franchise history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
