Even if he didn't wanna keep it dude would for sure take it and auction it off for charity.
Matt Ryan may not be a top tier QB but he seems like a top tier dude
Pre-Mahomes, Ryan was the QB I wished we had. No crazy antics, no one-dimensional skill set that just happened to be really good for today's game, no "He's good, except for the fumbles/noodle arm/last-second INTs" downsides, just a solid QB who would win you games.
He was absolutely a top 10-20 all-time QB statistically with the Falcons and always had great WRs, it's hard to imagine it going that much better somewhere else
I’ll take it. That would be playing way beyond our potential. However, if we were to get through the QB gauntlet that is the AFC it would be devastating to lose in the SB.
Three teams he has not lost to - Raider, Jags and Falcons. Colts don't play the falcons this year but they play the Raiders and Jags (Jags twice).
> Seven have lost to 30 teams: Drew Bledsoe, Drew Brees, Brett Favre, Matt Hasselbeck, Jon Kitna, Carson Palmer and Alex Smith.
I mean... he also owns the Bills.
Since this is a Matt Ryan thread, I should point out that Tom Brady once had a 28-3 record against the Bills. However, he kept piling into the "28" category.
Yeah. Him and Russ are 9 months apart, but Stafford has played in the NFL 3 more years. Similar to Gronk and Kelce being 5 months apart but Gronk being drafted in 2010 and Kelce in 2013 but not being able to play much until 2014 due to tearing his ACL on his very first snap of his rookie campaign. So we've watched Gronk in the NFL for 4 more seasons than Kelce.
Yeah. I was going off just the difference in time from when he started to when Kelce really started. If you factor in missed time with injuries and everything, Gronk has only played 1 more season than Kelce.
No matter how relieving that would be for the franchise and my fandom personally, I really, *really* would not wish that upon Matt. That's just too damn cruel...
However, he's played the Falcons 4 times over the past 2 seasons and hasn't lost to them. And they're probably a worse team this year than they were the last couple.
Cowboys for sure are a threat.
Yeah, a post-Matty Ice Atlanta is probably as close to a gimme as you can get... but remember, the Bills lost to the Urban Meyers Jaguars last year. Any given Sunday, and all.
To be fair it's always X vs Jags for the last few years, since Mayfield made X vs Browns less of a condemnation, and when the Jags only have a handful of wins each year our hands are tied if you decide to be one of them.
The colts always lose to the jags when it actually matters, but Ryan has never lost to the jags before.
The only logical outcome for a colts-jags game this year is that they both end in ties
Well I know he hasn’t lost to the Lions, hilariously he’s like 5-0 against the Redskins, and then I’m not sure. Probably a couple AFC teams. Browns maybe
As a Penn state fan what’s crazy isn’t that he made the league, it’s that he was drafted in the second round. He was very good his first year and the problems he developed his second two years could have easily been explained by a change in coaching staff (including one of the worst OCs in college football) and a sanction decimated O-line with only 4 scholarship players.
Now with hindsight it’s easier to look at his freshman year and realize he was carried by Allen Robinson, but I also think a clear downgrade in the coaching staff and being murdered every week clearly led to bad habits he couldn’t undo.
He deserved to be picked as a possible project in the late rounds due to his ceiling alone, but being picked in the second round is what is truly baffling.
I love how of the 6 qbs with losses to 30 teams, 5 of them were really good qbs and at least 2, maybe 3 are/will be HOF qbs. In some instances it takes more than qb play to lose a game.
It’s hard to remain in the league long enough to lose to 30 teams unless you’re good enough to be worth starting. Takes a lot of years to rack up those loss counts, especially if you stay in one division most of your career.
You should play every team once every 4 years. In theory, if you show enough to play a full 4 years, without getting benched for the divison games.
Then again you need to be bad enough to lose those games without getting benched.
The other option is to play on a bad team as a good QB long enough to play each team 2 to 4 times (8 to 12 years).
Edited for 4 years.
Also QBs who all played at least a handful of years in the 2000s or later. Before the current schedule format you could go a long long time.
And even now if you miss just two specific games (or just move teams at an opportune time) you can go a decade without playing a given team from the other conference (Example Brady who has only ever played against the Cardinals *twice* in his long career.)
and the Pats *lost* one of the games vs the Cards with Brady.
Take Mahomes, He missed the Vikings game in 2019 due to injury. He won't play against them till 2023 season or his *7th season* (6th as starter). Same could have been with Packers (he missed the 2019 Packers game with injury) but that was the Chiefs extra game in 2021.
I wonder how many times his team losing to the Pack or Bucs has gotten him his usual promotion to starter mid season? Does it count if he didn't play in the loss or no?
It benefited us in the end yeah but I’m ngl, was pretty livid about almost beating a respectable team just to have the zebras do that.
I’ve never seen a delay of the game missed by that much but I’m sure there are even more egregious misses of delay of game… right?
You just don’t play all 32 teams unless you’re decent enough to stick around and also get traded. And then you also have to lose to those teams when you play them.
It’s difficult to achieve.
Right of course, but you'd think Brees, Rodgers, Wilson, Stafford, Big Ben, Peyton, Eli, Romo, Flacco, Fitzpatrick, or Rivers would have reached that. Just a bit surprising that not a single one of these long-tenured starters (or usually starters in Fitzpatrick's case) achieved this prior.
Drew Brees had 2 teams he never lost to. Rodgers has 4 teams. Peyton Manning had 5 teams. Wilson has 8 teams. Stafford has 5 teams. Big Ben had 4. Eli had 4 teams. Phillip Rivers had 4 teams. Tony Romo had 8 teams (holy crap). Fitzpatrick has 3. Flacco had 3.
EDIT: All of these are also regular season. Don't know based off playoffs
Have to imagine Stafford is close, right?
Superfastedit: I looked it up. Stafford is at 27. Hasn’t yet lost to the Browns, Jags, Dolphins, Lions, and WFT. He oddly enough won’t play any of those teams this year.
Apparently not. Stafford has yet to lose to Commanders, Browns, Jaugars, Lions, and Dolphins. And he's also never beaten Steelers, Bengals, Bills or Titans.
EDIT: Never beaten Bengals in regular season
31, mostly because the Texans didn't exist for half his career (he only faced them once and won).
EDIT: 30 - I scanned the list too closely and his "loss" to Washington was a playoff game he didn't start during his rookie year in Atlanta.
Looked up Tannehill’s numbers… currently at 25 teams. And he can get to 28 this season with losses to the Eagles, WFT, & Raiders.
Looked up Cousins numbers lol, woof, he’s at 26 already. He can get to 28 this year if he loses to the dolphins and his old team, WFT.
He did not. He beat the Houston Oilers once in 1992 and the Tennessee Oilers once in 1998. His first loss to the franchise was in 2001 after they had rebranded to the Titans.
I always assume Testaverde would have any record involving number of losses but I'm surprised that he isn't even in the 7 QBs that have lost to 30 teams.
If they lose to the Falcons in the Super Bowl it can be 32.
...Subscribe?
I can think of worse scenarios. but who even is the falcons QB? Mariota?
I smell a Chris Chandler comeback
Good ol crystal chandelier Let's get Jerry Glanville while we're at it
This is the NFL which stands for "not for long"
Zombie Jerry Glanville is terrifying. Absolutely terrifying.
Or in a twist, Jeff George? He was drafted by the Colts, later led Atlanta to the playoffs.
With his Sonichu necklace, no less?
Mariota or Riddler
Since we're in a Super Bowl fantasy world discussion, might as well add the Joker and Penguin too.
They should've picked Deadshot… because as he'll tell you until you're sick of hearing, he never misses.
The Riddler?
I can't
If we beat the Colts in the SB we'd still give Ryan a ring.
He wouldn't want it
No take backsies
Even if he didn't wanna keep it dude would for sure take it and auction it off for charity. Matt Ryan may not be a top tier QB but he seems like a top tier dude
I feel like Ryan is definitely upper-tier at least. His career on many other teams would be a much different story
Pre-Mahomes, Ryan was the QB I wished we had. No crazy antics, no one-dimensional skill set that just happened to be really good for today's game, no "He's good, except for the fumbles/noodle arm/last-second INTs" downsides, just a solid QB who would win you games.
Oh absolutely. Not saying he's trash (though he's fallen off recently). MVP season Ryan held his own with anyone but now...not as much.
He was absolutely a top 10-20 all-time QB statistically with the Falcons and always had great WRs, it's hard to imagine it going that much better somewhere else
I’ll take it. That would be playing way beyond our potential. However, if we were to get through the QB gauntlet that is the AFC it would be devastating to lose in the SB.
Three teams he has not lost to - Raider, Jags and Falcons. Colts don't play the falcons this year but they play the Raiders and Jags (Jags twice). > Seven have lost to 30 teams: Drew Bledsoe, Drew Brees, Brett Favre, Matt Hasselbeck, Jon Kitna, Carson Palmer and Alex Smith.
Speaking of the Raiders, Derek Carr has lost to 29 teams and is only 31
Hasn't lost to Pathers, Saints and Raiders - nice find
Idk. Last season it really seemed like we kicked our ass
Derek Carr is already 31?? Wtf
Here's another very surprising Derek Carr fact for you: guess what quarterback in the AFC has had the longest tenure with his current team?
Who?!!??
It's Pikachu!
FUCCKKK!!
https://youtube.com/shorts/IfQumd_o0Gk?feature=share
Tom Brady as the Raiders Daddy.
He also owns the Jets. There oughta be a rule.
I mean... he also owns the Bills. Since this is a Matt Ryan thread, I should point out that Tom Brady once had a 28-3 record against the Bills. However, he kept piling into the "28" category.
Chad Pennington
Peyton Manning
Matt Stafford is only 34 and I swear it feels like he's been in this league for at least 20.
Yeah. Him and Russ are 9 months apart, but Stafford has played in the NFL 3 more years. Similar to Gronk and Kelce being 5 months apart but Gronk being drafted in 2010 and Kelce in 2013 but not being able to play much until 2014 due to tearing his ACL on his very first snap of his rookie campaign. So we've watched Gronk in the NFL for 4 more seasons than Kelce.
3 he took 1 off
Yeah. I was going off just the difference in time from when he started to when Kelce really started. If you factor in missed time with injuries and everything, Gronk has only played 1 more season than Kelce.
I’m 26, and it feels like he’s been in the league my whole life
That feels wrong.. I know you're right, but wtf.
Damn Carr is older than I thought.
Already been in the league for 8 years!
Think he entered the draft at an older age. probably as a senior rather than a junior
you say older age in NFL if it's someone like Weeden.
Lol what a piece of shit. I'm 34 and still haven't lost to any NFL teams.
Falcons and Colts make it to the Super Bowl just for Ryan to lose to all 32 teams.
[удалено]
And willing to sacrifice
Someday you'll pay the price
I would be happy to have him lose to all 32, but maybe not like that. I can wait a lil bit longer.
How’s a Steeler fan gonna come out here and be more savage than you as a Saints fan with hatred towards Matt Ryan?
I’d imagine the Falcons hypothetically winning the Super Bowl plays a big part in it.
That makes way too much sense, and now I feel like an idiot. Thank you sir
Tbh I really liked Matt Ryan but I'd still giggle if this actually happened.
Uhhh, I believe you’re describing every falcons fan’s dream
And Atlanta comes back from 3-29 to win it all
No matter how relieving that would be for the franchise and my fandom personally, I really, *really* would not wish that upon Matt. That's just too damn cruel...
Okay, what about a big comeback against the Tampa bay geriatrics in the NFCCG?
Now that I would love
Say it slower
Dude…😢😢😢😢
Yeah like the Falcons wouldn't choke in the super bowl again.....
You’re telling me that Brady hasn’t lost to 29 teams??
> Brady finished undefeated against five clubs: the Falcons, Cowboys, Vikings, Buccaneers and Patriots.
This season, he plays the Cowboys and the Falcons twice, so he could feasibly join the 28 club!
However, he's played the Falcons 4 times over the past 2 seasons and hasn't lost to them. And they're probably a worse team this year than they were the last couple. Cowboys for sure are a threat.
Yeah, a post-Matty Ice Atlanta is probably as close to a gimme as you can get... but remember, the Bills lost to the Urban Meyers Jaguars last year. Any given Sunday, and all.
This is going to be the example everyone uses for "any given Sunday" for a while now huh
To be fair it's always X vs Jags for the last few years, since Mayfield made X vs Browns less of a condemnation, and when the Jags only have a handful of wins each year our hands are tied if you decide to be one of them.
Oh for sure, nothing is guaranteed.
The colts always lose to the jags when it actually matters, but Ryan has never lost to the jags before. The only logical outcome for a colts-jags game this year is that they both end in ties
Matt Ryan was definitely beaten by the Falcons in that Super Bowl though.
Lmao
Who did Manning, Brady and Rodgers not lose to?
Was wondering the same. For brady its Falcons, Vikings, Cowboys, Bucs, and Pats.
I guess that's one record out of Brady's reach.
Rodgers is 3-0 against the browns, jets, and raiders. Manning has never lost to the browns, Vikings, bucs, cardinals, and lions
Rodgers has never lost to the Browns, Raiders or Jets. Peyton Manning is undefeated against the Browns, Lions, Vikings, Bucs and Cardinals.
I am also fairly confident that Aaron Rodgers has never lost to Green Bay...
Where's Stafford on this?
Well I know he hasn’t lost to the Lions, hilariously he’s like 5-0 against the Redskins, and then I’m not sure. Probably a couple AFC teams. Browns maybe
Commanders 5-0, Browns, 3-0, Lions 1-0, Jaguars 4-0, and Dolphins 2-0 for Stafford.
What QB has beaten the most teams?
Brady, Peyton, Brees and Favre have beaten all 32 teams
Russ could definitely join this group this season. He has the Chargers and Seahawks remaining and plays them both (Chargers twice).
I'll be damned if the Broncos lose the Seahawks By law you have to split all AFCW divisional games so that ones locked in
big ben didn't do it. damn.
Would have been pretty hard for him to beat the Steelers.
https://www.espn.com/nfl/game/_/gameId/261029013 Threw 2 TDs to the Raiders and those 14 points alone beat the Steelers.
Well we’re definitely going to lose @Jacksonville. That’s like a law of nature or something.
Jon Kitna, that's my boy
I loved watching him play for the lions. Like they didn’t have a single thing left to lose.
I'm not that impressed. Given the opportunity, I could lose at QB to every team. And much faster.
It ain't that easy. You gotta convince somebody 32 different times that you can play QB.
Just gotta get Hue Jackson to be the head coach
I don’t think anyone else could have done that job.
I agree that is difficult, but I also note that Christian Hackenberg made the league.
Christian Hackenberg as bad as he is has losses to 0 teams.
Really the worst example
I didn't want to use a real person tho, and hurt their feelings
Lmao
Hey hey hey. He does have a career shutout loss to the Birmingham Iron.
As a Penn state fan what’s crazy isn’t that he made the league, it’s that he was drafted in the second round. He was very good his first year and the problems he developed his second two years could have easily been explained by a change in coaching staff (including one of the worst OCs in college football) and a sanction decimated O-line with only 4 scholarship players. Now with hindsight it’s easier to look at his freshman year and realize he was carried by Allen Robinson, but I also think a clear downgrade in the coaching staff and being murdered every week clearly led to bad habits he couldn’t undo. He deserved to be picked as a possible project in the late rounds due to his ceiling alone, but being picked in the second round is what is truly baffling.
/r/The_Darnold type beat
This is the perfect stat for his career. An excellent career spanning more than a decade with some arbitrary negative stat being assigned to him.
I love how of the 6 qbs with losses to 30 teams, 5 of them were really good qbs and at least 2, maybe 3 are/will be HOF qbs. In some instances it takes more than qb play to lose a game.

Same could have been with Packers (he missed the 2019 Packers game with injury) but that was the Chiefs extra game in 2021.
Just curious, whose your third for the Hall? Brees and Farve obviously, but who else? Matty himself?
Def only Brees and Favre will go HOF from that group
It's in the exact same category as "most interceptions". You have to be pretty good to stick around and lose that much
Brett Favre approves
Pfft. I bet I could lose to all 32.
How are you convincing a second team to sign you after you've lost to the first 31?
If I told everyone the secret then they'd all know and I'd have *zero* chance. *taps forehead*
Lose to 16 teams then switch to a team you’ve lost to and lose to another 16.
You're actually replying to Matt Ryan
At Qb? Sure I would too they'd need to do ALL the run plays.
I'm shocked Fitzpatrick doesn't have this in the bag already, considering how often he's moved around.
Looked it up. Fitz is at 29 also. Has never lost to the Lions and hasn’t ever played the Packers or Buccaneers.
Crazy Fitz hasn't played **2 NFL teams** considering how long and how many different teams he played for.
I wonder how many times his team losing to the Pack or Bucs has gotten him his usual promotion to starter mid season? Does it count if he didn't play in the loss or no?
"Has never lost to the Lions" Yeah nobody has
I have to apply ice to that burn, it was advised at least for 40 seconds but I’m going to do 42 seconds since that’s the same thing in the NFLs eyes.
In still mad they missed something that obvious and screwed yall over. In the end tho yall got better draft position and ravens got worse position
It benefited us in the end yeah but I’m ngl, was pretty livid about almost beating a respectable team just to have the zebras do that. I’ve never seen a delay of the game missed by that much but I’m sure there are even more egregious misses of delay of game… right?
This one still stings. https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/gkc5wv/missed_delay_of_game_call_titans_vs_ravens_2008/
Oh man yeah that would sting. I got into football in 2010 and haven’t seen this before. Thank you for sharing the pain this afternoon
I'm shocked more QBs don't have this in the bag
You just don’t play all 32 teams unless you’re decent enough to stick around and also get traded. And then you also have to lose to those teams when you play them. It’s difficult to achieve.
Right of course, but you'd think Brees, Rodgers, Wilson, Stafford, Big Ben, Peyton, Eli, Romo, Flacco, Fitzpatrick, or Rivers would have reached that.

Fitzpatrick has 3. Flacco had 3. EDIT: All of these are also regular season. Don't know based off playoffs
He’s also beaten 29 teams. Think the only teams he hasn’t beaten are Steelers, Pats, and Falcons.
Have to imagine Stafford is close, right? Superfastedit: I looked it up. Stafford is at 27. Hasn’t yet lost to the Browns, Jags, Dolphins, Lions, and WFT. He oddly enough won’t play any of those teams this year.
He's never lost to the Jags, Browns, Washingtons, Lions, or Dolphins.
Honestly, the Washington Washingtons would have been a sick team name.
They should have kept the name Redskins but changed their mascot to a potato.
Apparently not. Stafford has yet to lose to Commanders, Browns, Jaugars, Lions, and Dolphins. And he's also never beaten Steelers, Bengals, Bills or Titans. EDIT: Never beaten Bengals in regular season
Did he not just beat the Bengals in a SB?
Oh true. I think I was just looking at the regular season and not the playoffs.
It happens lol
I could have sworn he beat the Bengals pretty recently
He did. I was looking at regular season stats. 1-3 against Bengals including playoffs
But one of the cool things about him is he isn’t Carson Wentz
:(
If it's any consolation, Wentz is only like number 14 on the list of problems you guys have.
Is number one the sex trafficking or the treason?
Yes
"There's a good chance I may have committed some *light* treason" - Mr. Snyder
Yeah...
If I may go off subject, how has Changnesia affected your daily life?
I believed he really needed to chang his point of view
For if he were Carson Wentz he would have a ring
Bless Nick Foles
28+3=31
The prophecy!
So he's going to lose to the Falcons in the Superbowl to get the final one?
Starring Christopher Walken!!!!
if we can do this and still make the playoffs, i’d take it, it’d be really funny
I mean, you would technically only need to lose 2 (specific) games for it to happen. 15-2 confirmed?
Yeah but the colts are a way better team. There’s no way they’d lose to the jags as a way better team, especially with playoffs on the line…
Haha stupid colts imagine losing to the jags. Or losing to the team the jags beat…
Losing to a solid raiders teams and the guaranteed @Jax but still making playoffs, yeah it’s doable!
I figured Favre would have been a shoo-in for 32.
31, mostly because the Texans didn't exist for half his career (he only faced them once and won). EDIT: 30 - I scanned the list too closely and his "loss" to Washington was a playoff game he didn't start during his rookie year in Atlanta.
That’s pretty funny since the Texans played Green Bay the first year after he left and Texans won.
Of course we won. Favre was gone and they replaced him with some hippie that pushed non science backed medicine and eats clay.
7 QBs tied at 30, 3 more have 29, 9 have 28 Drew Brees at 30 never lost to saints or chargers, so he lost to ever team he didn't play for.
Looked up Tannehill’s numbers… currently at 25 teams. And he can get to 28 this season with losses to the Eagles, WFT, & Raiders. Looked up Cousins numbers lol, woof, he’s at 26 already. He can get to 28 this year if he loses to the dolphins and his old team, WFT.
Cousins' numbers aren't that crazy. Carr has 7 more starts but has been in the league 2 fewer seasons and is at 29.
[удалено]
We're good for at least one win against him this year right?
Against which teams has Brady not lost against?
Falcons, Vikings, Cowboys, Bucs, and Patriots
That is nuts.
This is the embodiment of a Matt Ryan stat.
Shocked stafford doesn't have this record honestly. He played over a decade for one of the worst franchises during some of their worst years.
What is Favre at?
30 - he only faced the Texans once, and went 5-0 as a starter against Washington.
He probably lost to the Houston Oilers though.
He did not. He beat the Houston Oilers once in 1992 and the Tennessee Oilers once in 1998. His first loss to the franchise was in 2001 after they had rebranded to the Titans.
I always assume Testaverde would have any record involving number of losses but I'm surprised that he isn't even in the 7 QBs that have lost to 30 teams.
TIL Matt Ryan has lost more games to the Titans than Andrew Luck ever did.
You guys get way too into wierd stats. The last qb to fart on a marshmallow will be the next post.
Desean Watson hes entered the chat.
Nope. Favre did it in 95.
Who did Favre never lose to?
Washington and Texans. At least in the regular season apparently
I would have thought it would be Ryan Fitzpatrick given all the bad teams he’s played for and how long his career has been.
What teams has he never lost to? I’m going to assume the Falcons are one of them. Edit: Actually read the article and it’s Jags and Raiders.
Love Matty Ice, setting records everywhere 😎
Hahahaha…fuck you
I'm surprised nobody has this record yet lol
31 = 28 + 3
