Here are five statistical plateaus within reach for Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan during the 2019 season:
50,000
Ryan needs 3,280 yards to become the 10th player in NFL history with 50,000 passing yards.
300
Ryan needs five touchdown passes to become the 11th player in NFL history with 300 TD passes.
3
With the 3,280 passing yards and five TD passes, Ryan would become the third player in NFL history with
50,000 yards, 300 TD and a completion percentage over 65% (Drew Brees and Peyton Manning are the other two).
10
If Ryan starts every game, it would be the 10th straight season he has started all 16 regular-season games.
9
Another 4,000-yard passing season for Ryan would be his ninth straight, extending his own franchise record.
