IDK how people can blame Ryan for this loss

[bF™]

Our lack of explosiveness on offense was a big part of why we lost too.

We can't get chunk yardage and quick scores.

Mike Mularkey's fault. Apparently he has limited his playbook to nothing but out-routs and skinny posts, doesn't take too long for the D to start jumping routs, especially when you know they need to get out of bounds, so it'll be an outrout.

Well let me say this first:

The Green Bay Packers have a lot more talent than the Atlanta Falcons.

That being said, the Falcons formula for beating teams with more talent was working OK until Matt Ryan made two crucial mistakes.

He doesn't get all the blame, but he did as much as anybody to put this one out of reach for the Falcons.
