Matt Ryan’s matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles is a great matchup for him and the Falcons for two reasons. The first being that neither team boasts many top-notch defensive players resulting in a potential shootout. And the second being that Ryan has 11 career touchdowns against Philadelphia, which is the most against any non-NFC South opponent. Also, the Eagles allowed the third most fantasy points to quarterbacks last year… As if there wasn’t already enough positives for Ryan entering this game.
