Matty Ice is hopelessly lost


After five games in this NFL season, Julio Jones got his first touchdown pass from Matt Ryan against the New England Patriots.  This is symbolic of the kind of season Matt Ryan is having this year.  Six interceptions, low scoring offense, and costly mistakes have marked this season. Matt has no passion and is just going thru the motions. Maybe he is still shell shocked over that incredible loss in the Super Bowl 51. He made the wrong type of history that night, most points that was overcome, and it will haunt him forever. Interesting to note his passer rating was perfect. All one has to say is 28-3 to instantly take him back to that infamous night.

After 10 seasons in the books, his highlights are MVP of 2016 and good start as a rookie QB. The bad things are his losing playoff record and that massive loss in Super Bowl 51.  The bad things out weigh the good stuff by a mile. He has to know he may never see another Super Bowl since it took him 10 years to get in his first one.  He is playing like a man who soul is lost with no possible light in his future.  He knows after playing perfectly was not enough to win it all. Of course time will tell, but my bet is he will not get any better for the rest of his football career.
