Not a Falcons fan so turning to this sub for insight. For those who are able to tune into games, is Heinicke a better QB than Ridder?

    No…other than a few too many fumbles and the bad luck of losing all of them, Ridder has WAAAYYY more upside and was overall just as good considering the pass pro was Alot better in the Vikes game and end of Titans game. Heinicke’s stats are also boosted greatly by blown coverage/tackling on Jonnu 60yd TD and Horrific tackling on Hodge long gain. Without those 2 lucky plays Heinicke is 39/72 386 yds 3TD 1 int 1 fumble in 2.25 games going against 2 of the lousier pass D’s in the league. He had great luck with not throwing some picks on brutal throws too.There is like 0 upside with Heinicke unless Artie turns him loose which will result in alot of picks.
