John Clayton thinks Matt Ryan is elite. Everybody else sees him for what he's worth. Average. Atlanta isn't a terrible team, but overlooked is hardly appropriate.

Who are they talking about ? The who ? the Falclowns.

... that's what I was thinking, "what recent success?" ... they've won the NFC South, what?, once/twice since '98? They have an 0-3/0-4 playoff record with Matty 'Ice'? What's the measuring stick for 'success'? A winning regular season? ... I guess you take it where you can get it, but it's pretty easy to see, from my vantage point anyway, why they've been 'overlooked' ... geez, just sayin'.

It will never happen so no need to worry.

It's similar to calling the Cowboys overlooked. They're an average team who occasionally makes the playoffs, and always loses there.
