I don't know about this either. I have both as well but I'm wondering why move away from Ryan. Both QBs are playing against two QBs that love to air out the ball. I'm still leaning towards Ryan because he has more highly quality targets than Freeman. Brees played poorly Sunday but he still threw the ball. The Falcons need this win to seal their bye, so I expect a solid home game performance. The guy is still airing it out if on bad days.
A final note: Freeman is more inconsistent than Ryan. Ryan's 342 passing yards marked the seventh time that he has thrown for more than 300 yards this season, breaking his own franchise record of six games set in 2011. Freeman, who also had two carries for 13 yards, failed to complete 50 percent of his passes for the second straight week.
Too risky IMO!
