Here's the problem with Atlanta...
I've re-watched several of their games, and here is what I've concluded:
Right now Matt Ryan is playing some of the best football I've ever seen out of a quarterback. He is throwing passes WAY too early because of pressure (based on the routes), but his vision, anticipation, and accuracy is so good that the balls are getting to the target perfectly on time and on the money. He's throwing way before the WR looks for the ball with perfect timing, despite having defenders in his face, as a way to compensate for that pressure. It is remarkable to watch.
But this is a problem, you see. Matt Ryan is playing out of his mind, and this is the only reason the Falcons are so good right now. If Matt Ryan has a mediocre game, the Falcons are going to lose. He is carrying this team on his back right now. Yes, Julio, etc etc. But Ryan is throwing dimes with Peyton Manning like anticipation, but without the arm strength handicap. He is bailing out the team, and if he can't continue to carry the load, they are going to be roasted bird.
He is the MVP, and they need him to keep playing like it to win the Super Bowl.
