Falcons' Ryan sits out practice, unlikely to play
 

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan sat out another practice because of a toe injury, making it increasingly unlikely he'll be able to play against the unbeaten New Orleans Saints.


While Ryan went through a walkthrough, which wasn't open to the media, he wasn't even at the indoor practice facility for the 2½-hour workout. Still, coach Mike Smith said the team isn't ready to say for sure that Ryan won't play Sunday.


Chris Redman ran the first-team offense.
Ryan hurt the big toe on his right foot in a Nov. 29 victory over Tampa Bay. He sat out last weekend's game against Philadelphia, along with four other offensive starters, and the Falcons (6-6) lost 34-7 to severely damage their playoff hopes.

Since our starting CBs won't be playing, it would sure help if the Turds' starting QB won't be playing.

Is it just me or are we playing our worse football to teams with no respect in the league. But when we play good teams we play better

.. a turf toe may not sound like much, but mechanics are everything for a QB. If Ryan plays, he's going to basically be throwing the ball off his back foot all day.

If you compare the Patsies game to the Skins game... that's about right.

Its still not a 100% yet.

Its been like that for years... gave the Rams one of their few losses last year or the year before.... the Bengals the year before Palmer I believe... we just play down to competition
