He compared Matt Ryan to Matthew Hasselbeck in NFLG. I said he would get punched for saying that to a true ATL fan.
Honestly think he's a troll. |
Umm, Matthew Hasselbeck is a 3X Pro Bowler and has made it to the Super Bowl so what is wrong with that comparison? |
Our Matt has been to two and is a few years off of 30. He is continuously improving as well. |
I did say a " IMPROVED " Matt Hassleback |

Very specific.
I could say Cam Newton is an improved JaMarcus Russell. That's true, but to what extent..? In reality he is a huge upgrade of JR just like Ryan would be over Hasselbeck, but the way you say it he could be a little better, or could be a lot better. _________________

That's fine, but you made it seem like Matt Ryan is LIGHTS years better than him. Hasslebeck also has five playoff wins so he deserves his due. That wasn't THAT bad of a comparison, or at least not as bad as you made it out to be. _________________

Agree to disagree, but I do believe Ryan is a DAMN good QB. Who would you rather compare him too? _________________

I remember coming out if college he was being compared to Chad Pennington. I liked that comparison. Obviously Pennington didn't last in the league due to repeated injuries, but a completely healthy Pennington sounds right. Was in the MVP running once or twice in his few healthy seasons, but was never really elite I would say. Very good though.
I'm still hoping Matt turns the corner to elite though. _________________

Come one man, Hasselbeck was just as good as Pennington, if not better.
I think a fair comparison would be Trent Green in his prime. _________________

It can go either way. It is definitely arguable. Pennington was 2nd in MVP votes in 2008, but didn't even make 2nd team All Pro. He was a good QB no doubt, but so was Hasselbeck. _________________

So you are going to compare him to Pennington, but take offense for someone saying he is an improved version of Hasselbeck? How does that make sense? Both were similar to an extent, but I could argue Hasselbeck easily had the better career and he definitely had more playoff success. No need to get too upset with the comparison Swift924 made. _________________

Personally I think Matt is better than both were. And I don't why we are even discussing Julio vs Mike J. Julio is clearly better. You just can't expect him to catch 10 passes for 100+ yards every playoff game. _________________

He had the better career because Pennigton had 2-3 good and healthy seasons. One in which he did finish second in MVP voting.
I said a healthy Pennington. Healthy Pennington was a top 5-7 QB and had a huge impact on the success/failure if his team. Also both play very similarly and that's how I based the comparison.
Matt Hasselbeck is Matt Schaub to me.
Too many Matt's  _________________

Falcons gave up 5 draft picks for Julio to dominate in these post season games and add some explosiveness. Time for Julio to have a Torrey Smith performance 2 TDS vs Champ Bailey . It's time for Julio to have his breakout game on biggest stage ..
Randy Moss did it in his 2nd year of playoffs..188 yards 2 TDS |
