      Well, the reality is that with Ridder, we have better hope at the playoffs than with Heinicke. The team snapped a 3-game losing streak that had Heinicke under center with a win against our fierce rivals in a must-win situation. This win strengthens our chances of winning the South.

      Let’s face it and accept it, with Ridder, the teams wins (and loses). With Heinicke, the team just wasn’t winning. Idk what it is, but eh, let’s ride it out with Ridder.

    In games that Ridder plays from start to finish the Falcons are 5-3. Some people claim the Falcons win despite Ridder but that logic doesn’t hold as when he didn’t start the Falcons lost.

    In total, games Ridder has started and finished the Falcons are 7-5. Ridder will truly have played an entire season after four more games.

    If you compare first year QB wins/losses and metrics such as TD/INT ratio, Ridder has played better than some of the all time greats did their first season.

    The Falcons don’t have much of a choice.

    They are giving him a chance to let the front office know they don’t need to draft or sign another QB and be hasn’t done much to prove they shouldn’t. Ridder isn’t a franchise QB but since he has more future potential than Taylor he should play. Play and evaluate your 3rd round pick.

    Yea but I’m out on him next season unless he goes almost turnover free each game the rest of the season. Cant win games with back breaking INTS/fumbles . Would rather draft Daniels and have Ridder as cheap backup
