Ryan’s 2016 season is so underrated. One of the best seasons of qb play by a quarterback. Sucks Atlanta choked

[@silverspadelord]

Also underrated 2018 season

[@donsolos]

Kyle shanahan basically brought heavy pre snap movement into the game during this season. Matt ryan was never the same after he left, still a really good QB and will probably be very successful with the colts

[@derekperez7524]

@@donsolos well Atlanta as a team hasn’t been the same since 2016 lmao. Ryan’s o line he’s had to work with since then has also been bottom five. Also he quite nearly replicated this season in 2018. Just 3 less Tds

[@donsolos]

@@derekperez7524 maybe his stats were similar cause they aired it out all day but the offense was significantly better with kyle shanahan calling plays. Did you guys change change offensive line schemes after kyle left? I don't think his zone blocking scheme is the norm in the NFL, and changing your blocking scheme is usually a disaster for a year or 2

next one after that is Dak💀

@@laurinnn Yep. Go back as recently as 2017. There was Brady, Roethlisberger, Eli Manning, Rivers, Brees, Rodgers, Ryan, Flacco, Stafford, Dalton, Newton, and Wilson--all with the same team for 6 years or longer, and each of which (except Brees) was still starting for his original franchise. That's 12 out of 32. Now we have 3 of 32 since 2016. Truly insane... Edit: I forgot about Luck and Tannehill, but I believe they both missed 2017 due to injury.
