Ryan is a good QB, not great, not as good a Brees, but he is good enough to win it all.
The Super Bowl loss doesn't fall all on his shoulders, he played an outstanding game. But when the game was on the line and they needed someone to step up and put the game away, it wasn't Ryan. It's what he does, or should I say what he doesn't do. And it wasn't just the Super Bowl. The Falcons last playoff game against the Eagles, he did a masterful job of driving the Falcons down the field for the game winning touchdown, but in the final seconds, from the red zone, he threw the ball out of bounds 5 consecutive plays to end the game. The "scardy cat" game, the fumble in the 2013 NFC championship game....

Ryan is a great, not good, quarterback but when the pressure's on and the Falcons need someone to step up, it's never him.

And when the spotlights on him and the season's on the line, he'll fold like a lawn chair, he always does.
