In the 95th episode of The Bow Tie Chronicles podcast, owner Arthur Blank discusses taking the "long view" of the team's disappointing 2018 season. Quarterback Matt Ryan, defensive tackle Grady Jarrett and coach Dan Quinn also stop by to discuss the state of the team after the 26-16 loss to the rugged Ravens that dropped them to 4-8 and essentially eliminated them from the playoffs.
