Should Ryan be the starter?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Falcons have named rookie Matt Ryan the season’s starting quarterback.
The No. 3 overall draft pick out of Boston College, who signed to a $72 million, six-year contract in the off-season, will make his regular-season debut Sept. 7 against Detroit at the Georgia Dome.
The last rookie quarterback to start the regular season was Houston’s David Carr in 2002. Carr went 4-12, getting sacked a whopping 76 times.
Are the Falcons doing the right thing by throwing Ryan into the fire so quickly? How do think the team will respond? And are their chances improved or diminished by his presence in the pocket?
