Top five performers of the season so far for the Atlanta Falcons

Matt Ryan

Matt Ryan is a constant professional that held his head up high, knowing that everything was going to hell.

He tried his best to stay positive and optimistic, playing hard week in and week out, regardless of what was being said or what was taking place.

So far, Ryan leads the league in passing yards with 2,746 yards. He also has 15 touchdowns and is completing 67.2% of his passes. Ryan has done everything he can for the Atlanta Falcons during this rough three-season stretch, and for that, he deserves respect.

He continues to put this team on his back and has proven that he is indeed one of the greatest to ever play the position. Many will continue to say he sucks or is overrated, but he doesn’t care. He continues to give back to the community and has further proven his love for the city.

Ryan is not getting younger. He knows his time may be drawing to a close within the next few years, and he is playing like it. He wants to leave his all on the field and we should be thankful that he is still performing at a high level.
