Rough game for Ryan
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
We knew there would be days like this, but after last week, I was overconfident. Ryan got off to a horrible start. You know it’s going to be a long day when your quarterback’s first completion is late in the second quarter. Turnovers were a killer.
I thought the defense gave the Falcons a chance to win this game despite falling behind 17-0. But the offense kept stuttering even with awesome catches by Robinson. Ryan showed some poise and elusiveness at times, but not getting into the end zone and having to settle for field goals isn’t going to win many games.
Where was the sense of urgency late in the fourth quarter? Have a couple of plays called and don’t huddle. It takes way too much time. We needed to score and quickly.
I really would have liked to see what Ryan could have done down by 8, but the defense just couldn’t hold the Bucs one more time.
Back at the Dome next week.
Go Falcons!
