The people that root against Ryan on this board need a reality check. Joe has not looked like superman in the playoffs to be fair.

You don't have to root against Ryan, and its pretty fucking sad if you do. They both are allowed to do good, one doesn't' have to suck for the other to look good...

He looked bad today, but it doesn't change the fact that some people on this board actually root against him. It's weird.

That said, Ryan looked bad, and I have a feeling Flacco will look good on Sunday vs Houston.

Not really, Flacco has had better games than that in the playoffs

Why do you care? Last time I checked it's a free country.

Flacco has never scored 0 points in a playoff game. More importantly, he's never scored 0 points with Roddy White, Julio Jones, and Tony Gonzalez to throw to.

Nobody has a vendetta against Ryan, this is the first time Ryan v.s. Flacco has even been mentioned in a long while.

To be fair to Matty - he did put up 2 points today!

thats ridiculous. ryan has turner, gonzalace, jones and white and he was shut out today and still hasn't won one playoff game. bottom line flacco is a winner.

Ryan would shit his pants if he had to play Pittsburgh twice a year.

Exactly, there's no reason Ryan should have been shutout, I mean 0 points? I would have never seen that coming.

At least all this Matty Ice crap is dead for another year.

Now - if only the Broncos can beat the Squeelers.

For some reason, a lot of people have to have one QB fail in order to feel good about theirs.

Honestly i'm not sure this Validates Ryan over Joe. I think they are both pretty equal, because i do take into account that Ryan has a lot more to work with than Joe, Ryan doesn't have nearly as good a Defense as Joe's, when Joe struggled in the playoffs the D carried us, when Ryan Struggles he doesn't have that luxury.

I still like both kids, i think they will be fantastic QBs in the NFL.

They will be the Tom brady/Peyton Manning of their times, hopefully Joe turns out to be the Brady.. :D

Joe Flacco has had three playoff games better than anything Ryan has put forth in the postseason. During their rookie seasons, Ryan threw the late pick against Arizona, while Joe led the late game winning drive against Tennessee. Joe scored two TDs (One through the air and one on the ground), while not turning the ball over, against Miami. Then, he played very well against KC.

Matt Ryan hasn't had one good playoff game yet.
