It's not clear if Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan will be calling the shots in the huddle Sunday when the team takes on the New Orleans Saints just yet since the poor guy has turf toe, but there are two things that will apparently definitely keep him out of the lineup, according to NFL.com. Those two things are Falcons left tackle Sam Baker and right guard Harvey Dahl who were out last week because Baker had a hurt elbow and Dahl's ankle is injured. As a result, the offense fell apart, so Atlanta execs apparently feel like they would be putting Ryan into harm's way if they started him behind the second stringers again. Source: Yahoo! Sports
smart.... protect your investment.... unlike detroit and ny, maybe its time for those teams to put ol sanchez and stafford on the IR and get them healthy for next year.
