The next contract is always the most. Whose to say that Ryan wouldn't have gotten more next year?

You don't want your franchise player to be playing for a contract and have that in the back of his mind. It worked for Flacco but that doesn't mean it would work for Ryan.

How could it of been bigger? ARod is the only person who makes more per year....they already way overpaid. Kinda hard to pay him more than what they currently are.

Great game is really overstating it. That last TD drive was when the game was already decided. He had an OK game. Ryan had a great first half against the niners but couldn't keep the momentum going.

If Ryan played any better against the Niners he would have posted arguably the best game of any QB in the NFL that season against arguably the 2nd best defense in the NFL. Be real. Ryan isn't the reason they lost that game. If you score 24 points on a team like the Niners and lose, your defense was a big part of that failure. Of course Ryan coudl have done better, but 400 yards 75% ish comp% and 3 TDs against the Niners defense is epic.

You HAD to give Matt Ryan the most expensive contract in NFL history? Seriously?

Aaron Rodgers is more, but I digress.

Ryan has a rap sheet already most QBs would dream of. only blemish is he doesn't have a ring. When he gets that ring he'll liekly be well on his way to a HOF worth careers. Not many guys have a .718 win percentage in their first 5 seasons.

You say that now, but wait and see. **** is changing in the NFL and this offseason already dictated a steep rise in QB prices. And especially with the new CBA the young bucks are gonna his FA and want the biggest dollars.

And winning regular season games is what the Falcons are great at. Come January and what happens.

The most money given out in the first 3 years of a contract belongs to one, Matt Ryan.

I would also argue another blemish on his résumé is, his playoff record.

Playoff record has as much to do with his team as anything else.

First playoffs Ryan stank, but he was a Rookie going up against Kurt Warner. Second playoffs Ryan was fine in the first half until the last play, but the Falcons could not stop Aaron Rodgers which forced him into trying to make plays. I think the Packers had like 1 drive that year they didn't score on the Falcons after the first drive fumble. Giants the Falcons couldn't establish a run to save their lives and the Giants were able to get pressure while dropping 6 and 7 out. Not much he could have done there.

And I didn't realize the first 3 years were all that mattered.

So Ryan should get credit for the regular season wins but no blame for losses in the postseason?

That sounds like he can beat the bad teams but its not his fault he can't beat the good teams.

The same team that came back on your team on your home turf in the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME with a QB that started 8 games prior to that. Yeah, that same team.

I was 7 or 8 the last time the Niners won the superbowl. Bragging about Niners rings is like Bragging about the Braves winning world series. It happened, but it happened so long ago who really gives a fawk.
