and the Falcons are left holding the bag with a $40 million dead cap hit...biggest ever.
Falcons are the biggest clown NFL franchise with the Panthers coming in 2nd.

Exactly why I didn't want DW4 to go there

I think Atlanta was more concerned about...

ridding itself of Ryan's large salary.
Not sure Mariota is the answer. Too injury prone especially on a team with one of the leagues worst offensive lines.

If Falcons moved Ryan earlier they could have gotten more...

Much more. Like a 1st and 2nd round draft pick.

Mariota isn’t supposed to the the answer, he’s a stop gap

Until they can find the answer at QB in this years or next years draft. It’s a rebuild.

All he’s worth is a 3rd round pick…

He’s a 36 year old QB with declining arm talent and has struggled with a low 50% completion percentage in the red zone for the 3 seasons.

No chips in the game, but as far as QB's, Ryan has been

SACKED more than any NFL QB not named Russell Wilson over the last 10 years. I defy ANY QB to have good throwing stats lying on his back.
Matthew Stafford was third on that list. Look at what a change of venue did for HIM this year.

They could've drafted Fields last year but they passed. That looks like a huge mistake now.

Pretty safe to say the Falcons won't be going anywhere this season.

Falcons must be targeting the #1 pick in 2023

They signed Marcus Mariota to be their starter. From Day 1 at Oregon continuing into the NFL, he fumbles if you breath on him. He's also injury-prone and it's likely (IMO) he'll be out for the season by game 6 or 7.

My favorite highlight of Ryan is seeing his neck whiplash in the game with us. What a slobberknocking lick!
