Matt Ryan

Hayden Hurst has every opportunity to take off with the Falcons this season.

You take a guy like Hayden Hurst for us... I think he ends up in Baltimore where for no other reason than they just ran the football down people's throat. He just didn't really get that many opportunities and I think him coming in for us has every opportunity to take off.

My nickname 'Matty Ice' is definitively from drinking Natty Ice, not from playing high school baseball.

It's definitely from Natty Ice. It had nothing to do with like playing one good baseball game or anything like that. It really started from in high school, just a bunch of idiots being like you got a bunch of Natty Ice beers and being like 'Matty Ice' sounds like 'Natty Ice' and let's go with that.

My dream postseason path would involve beating the Saints, the Eagles, and then the Patriots in the Super Bowl.

Week one bye for sure... we'll beat New Orleans first round or divisional round, take out Philly in the championship game and then roll right in and play the Patriots and take out the Patriots in the Super Bowl... New Orleans and Philly would be the two for me.

The Popeyes chicken sandwich is better than Chick-fil-A

I think the Popeye's is better. Yes, it's a little bit bigger, it's a little crunchier. Popeyes is better but Popeyes also will set you back a little.

The Falcons will win 12 games in the 2020 season.

I'll get roasted for it, but I'm going to say we're going to win 12 games.

I currently consider myself the best quarterback in the NFC South.

I think currently I'll go with myself [as the best quarterback in the NFC South].
