Ryan is going to be great for us, I think the Falcons are going to get over the Vick situation this year. I wouldn't say we're headed for the playoffs just yet, but today was definitely a promising start.
If the Falcons can run the ball on a consistant basis they can very easily make the playoffs, the only team they should worry about is the Saints division wise.
