Only elite qb's throw for 40+ TDs a season, though.

Cut the kid some slack.... He hasn't even hit his prime yet... after all, Peyton Manning started off 0-3 in the playoffs too, all of them, blowout losses. They both had a perfect score on the wonderlic coming in from college. Their great knowledge and understanding of the game at such young ages make them so much alike. That's why we run the no huddle offense, the same offense Peyton Manning ran as a young qb. Our old OC let Matt Ryan call some plays on certain drives, and I think Matt Ryan did a better job of calling plays than our old OC.

Frankly, I think their OC should've just kept his mouth shut, and not mention any ranking. What's the point? You can't put him up there with the money QB's (and by money I don't mean salary) so why even bother? Why even mention "top 10"? Out of 32 starting QBs? That's not even a compliment. Top 5? Ok, that would be a compliment, but I am sure, had the OC made that comment, the laughter heard around the league would've been much louder... pretty sure Ryan himself would've LOL'd.

.. and there you go with the Prisco comparison. Unfortunately, that comparison is only valid in that Manning started 0-3 in the playoffs, and that's where it ends.

And the Colts did not lose all games in blowouts.
1999 16-19 against the Titans
2000 23-17 against the Dolphins in OT


... but you just keep on listening to Prisco.

Matt Ryan finished 5th in ESPN's total QBR rating last year. :D

I understood that from the beginning... but you can't deny Matt Ryan's a top 10 qb. :/

yes we can; for no other reason than he's a Falcon... :doh:

This thread has established that Matt Ryan is (barely) above average.

Another failcone fan strikes again...
