Matt Ryan out against the Eagles.

by willydick71 on Nov 30, 2009 3:16 PM EST

FOXSports' Jay Glazer reports that Matt Ryan has ligament damage in his big toe and is out for Week 13.

Chris Redman will start against Philadelphia. Ryan will seek a second opinion from a foot specialist in Charlotte, and isn't a sure thing to play again this year. Glazer says Ryan has turf toe, and the visit (presumably with Dr. Robert Anderson) indicates that he may need surgery. Don't drop Ryan in fantasy leagues, but don't count on him returning for the fantasy playoffs.

Yep...

Although I never wish an injury to anyone, it is nice to finally talk about some other team’s injury problems and not just our own…which this year have been rediculous…

Don't get too excited

This should definitely help our chances, but Chris Redman just threw 2 touchdowns yesterday, including one on the last play of the game to win. The Falcons are still a good team with or without Matt Ryan.

"The last time the Eagles won by scoring in the final two minutes of regulation was a 23-20 win over Oakland in 2005."

“Chris Redman just threw 2 touchdowns yesterday”

Against the Bucs!! Of course this doesnt matter at all, because the Eagles have this nasty little habit of playing down to their opponents.

meh Tampa Bay allows a 93.3 passer rating against them we only allow 74.4 they’ve also given up the 3rd most passing TDs behind Tennessee and Detroit.

While our diminished Defense scares me I’d much rather have Redman than Ryan out there.

reinjured his ankle. He’s questionable.

About 10 minutes ago, I was pondering my own existence. Then I decided that it didn't matter.

This is one incredibly fortuitous stroke of luck

I don’t like seeing injuries happen to anyone, but as it was stated before, after watching so many plague our entire squad, it’s good to see it actually does exist outside of Philadelphia.

Also, we get Chris Redman instead of Matt Ryan. While I’m not as high on Ryan as most, there’s an absurd difference in talent there.

I’d love to see us come out with a physical gameplan and wear down the front four of Atlanta.

Desean is listed as questionable.

Cant Say Im Disapted..........

I Just hope we still take them seriously……..Redman has experience as a starter and played well last week…..we will be headed to a hostile environment……so lets not take this team for granted. We’ve Had more than our fair share of Injuries so I Hope Matts Coo and fully he comes back plays well……..but not against us!
