Tribal Chief Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I don't know where you guys get the thought that these guys don't get any love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest facelessman07 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Ryan gets plenty of love, but unfortunately many think it's "hate" when he's ranked out of the top 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconidae Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Ryan has always gotten love from those who actually watch the games.Here's what they said about Ryan:Matt Ryan hasn't been flashy this season, but he's played his best in the fourth quarter during Atlanta's three comeback victories. He's great against pressure. This is the Matt Ryan we've seen throughout his career; he's just getting more help now from his line and running game.

Jesus Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 He would be 3 but for some reason the writer felt the need to give one last shout out of love to Big Ben in spite of the injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmo_dlo Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 The amazing thing is Ryan hasn't even played that great this year compared to his previous years. I think he's still getting comfortable in the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtybird2k5 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I don't know where you guys get the thought that these guys don't get any love.Me neither. I guess they all expect to tune into NFL Network or ESPN and get 24/7 Falcons coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnikies Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 He would be 3 but for some reason the writer felt the need to give one last shout out of love to Big Ben in spite of the injury.Have you looked at Roethlisbergers stat line this season he's completeing over 75%. I know hes injured but he deserved top 3. After this week though he shouldn't be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likeriver Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 It's not that Ryan doesn't get any love, it's just that the rankings are so capricious based on silly things like whether the team is winning or not. If you guys remember, this offseason the NFL did a top 10 ranking of quarterbacks and Matt Ryan wasn't listed. Alex Smith was placed in the #10 spot above him. But now, suddenly we're winning and Matt Ryan is getting top 5 cred, even though he's playing no better (maybe even worse) than last year.Also, to be fair, one of the reasons Ryan is so high is because there's a void from where Brees and Manning used to be.

Luckily for us we should see Vick at the bottom of the list for the next 4-6 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMT11 Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 OK GUYS - so sorry to say love , you victims. Rare love meant you usually do not see him ranked this high in this type of 1-32 type of article. I dont think Ive ever seen him really above 8.

JayOzOne Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I think he gets plenty of love. Most rankings that I saw had him at #9 or 10 and he's the only QB of a losing team that ranked that high. I'd say that they know how well he plays and respect him for it, if not his lack of success in 2012 & 2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
