I appreciate what Matt did for the city. Especially coming into a situation like he did with everything going on with the franchise at the time. He was a professional always. And was a baller. Some people in the city don’t appreciate this man and what he did for the franchise. He is by far the best QB in Falcons history and he will be a HOF when it’s all said and done🤷🏾‍♂️. Through the ups and downs, real Falcons fans appreciate you and how you played the game Matty ICE!🤝🏾

[@PrezTaylor09]

I think Matty resume is HOF worthy; he was just sandwiched between all time QBs. The Falcons haven’t been relevant since Matty.

Sandwiched between who, Vick and Mariota? Vick was exciting and Mariota was trash, neither was all-time anything.

Cam! As an Atlanta fan, you've been a rival for years. But your podcast is pretty cool! Thank you for having Matt Ryan on. I follow the Atlanta falcons daily. Legit. Every morning, reading their news updates, articles, etc. is my wake up material. Every night it's my wind down material. I read the comments and see what everyone has to say. Matt Ryan is hands down the best to suit up for the falcons. And the level of disrespect I see from "fans" towards Matt is ridiculous. This man played his a** off for us and still has haters. He played one of the best games in the super bowl. His stats and ratings were crazy. Thank you for bringing him to light for the haters. The dude deserves more respect. Thank you again good sir

[@animeid4865]

Cam you might as well bring Drew Brees on

[@SuperZekethefreak]

I'm glad Cam Newton continues to be a sports personality - he is brilliant. Matt Ryan got done dirty by Atlanta coaches. He typically had 4000+ yards passing but only 27 TDs, so they used him between the 20s to move the chains but went to their run game in the Red Zone. Imagine how many TDs the guy would have had if it was a different coaching group and we are discussing potential HOF.

I grew up watching Matt and he is so underrated. If we gave him a top 10-15 defense bruh fr

I always loved Matt, he’s made of steel. I could always tell a true fan or football IQ based of if they thought good or bad.

[@eulalawrence841]

As a fellow ATLien; Atlanta aren't the one's not giving Matty his flowers, it's the media. I dare you to go to any of the malls, or downtown, and avoid seeing a Matt Ryan jersey at least 10 times. You won't because it's not possible, all of Georgia loves Matty Ice. The problem is the fact during any debate or any mention of the Falcons in the media, or online, the only thing you'll see is 28-3. It's hard to defend against that as a Falcon fan. We're literally an immortal NFL meme that won't go away, even if the franchise win it's first super bowl. Unfortunately, Matt was the QB that didn't put his foot down when Kyle Shanahan kept drawing up passing plays.
