More analysis that Matt Ryan, not Jake Long, should’ve been the pick in 2008

[Vaark]

The Matt Moore/Matt Ryan line you keep dropping is completely untouchable, Vaark. You know better.

True on a direct comparison in general but goose eggs is goose eggs which suggests his fear of failure becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy when the lights shine brightest. :idk:

 

[Adam Strange]

Playoff record isn't what determines whether a quarterback is elite or not. There's no way around it.

It's simply a talking point for trying to seperate all-time greats and rank them accordingly. Thus why Marino doesn't get the credit he deserves. Same for Moon, Tarkenton, Fouts, and the like.

The footing detractors of Ryan are standing on is so shaky. The argument has already been proven, but it's just going to become more obvious as Ryan's career progresses.

There isn't any footing left at all when the guy who was in charge of passing him up admits it was a mistake.

Not that he needed to admit it in the first place.

Yep, yet it's frustrating to see people have to come into this thread and make very compelling arguments for Ryan when it really isn't even debatable.

What are we going to do now that the NFL is killing the Probowl? If Jake Long can't make the Probowl we are never going to have a successful season!
