| Does Matt Ryan impress you? (Posted on 1/13/13 at 2:08 pm)
You can probably guess my opinion but I'm curious about other fans unbiased opinions. Say they hold and take the W today. Does it change or only heighten your opinion?

Dude he's played damn well...easily well enough to carve up one of the better defenses in the NFL. He's not going to be Rodgers, Brady, Brees, Manning and just spread and throw but he's playing legit NFL qb right now. He's the ultimate front running QB.

You are an uneducated fan if one game can change your opinion of a player based on whether or not they have a playoff win
ETA that made no sense bc I edited on my phone while taking a shite...I'm sure someone can decipher what I meant

He's no Brees, but he's not nearly as bad as some people make him out to be.
Give him a running game and he's good enough to get it done.

I'm an impartial observer and think he doesn't deserve the hate and ridicule he often gets on this board. The guy is a top 10 QB and a winner.

His lack of clutchness impresses me.

He has been pretty good for awhile.... Some just fail to acknowledge it

Truth is, few people make him out to be "bad" at all unless you're polling Saints fans.
He's a very solid NFL QB that most teams would prefer to have, but who needs to go to another level to have an argument for being elite.

He's pretty damn good.
He's not elite. But he's damn good.

His production is unquestionable. But just watching him, he doesn't seem to be in the same zipcode as the top 4.
But I'd put him in the top 8 of QBs in the league because there are some mediocre and shitty QBs playing in the league right now.

Yeah I think he is going to get a couple superbowls. Reminds me of Peyton manning a little

I'm a Falcons fan and I wouldn't say that. I'd put him somewhere between the elite and Roethlisberger, in that he's not going to blow it up, but he won't win in horrific fashion either.
Not to slight the Saints, but in my mind there are the top 3 (Tier 1A), then Brees who can usually light it up but may at times sink the ship (Tier 1B), and then a second tier which is where Ryan is.
But, I don't know that Ryan has much company in his class.

Sometimes I think he's really good, other times, not so much.
I'd put him right below Rodgers, Brady, Brees, and Manning.

As tough as it is to admit. Anyone in the Jeff George stratosphere of playoff wins is impressive

He's pretty good, but he'll never be an elite QB. A lot of these young, dynamic guys are going to fly right by him
