"I've been working pretty much every day this week trying to get the (hip) back to normal,"...

Falcons Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)   New window
Date: Thursday, 19 Nov 2009 07:33

The Falcons have dropped three of their last five games and everybody is wondering what happened to Matt "Matty Ice" Ryan.

He made a very un-ice like play against Carolina, throwing an interception with under 4:00 to play. Ice was supposed to remain cool, and take the Falcons down—at least for a field goal—in the 21-19 game.

But he threw his 10th interception over the last five games and his 12th of the season. He only threw 11 in 434 attempts last season. He's thrown the 12 this season while making 298 attempts.

"We evaluate Matt and all of our players' play," Falcons coach Mike Smith said. "We are always trying to give our guys nuggets that can help them play more efficiently.

No-huddling Delhomme, Panthers top Falcons 28-19 (AP)   New window
Date: Sunday, 15 Nov 2009 23:26

Carolina Panthers' Richard Marshall(notes) (31) returns an interception against the Atlanta Falcons in the second half of the Panthers' 28-19 win in an NFL football game in Charlotte, N.C., Sunday, Nov. 15, 2009.

The Carolina Panthers might have finally found a way to solve Jake Delhomme's woes: controlled chaos. A heavy dose of miscues from Matt Ryan and banged-up Atlanta didn't hurt, either. The Panthers unleashed a no-huddle offense on Sunday with Delhomme calling the plays, and it produced two touchdown passes to Steve Smith, no turnovers and a 28-19 victory over the Falcons.
