Falcons QB Matt Ryan named NFC Offensive Player of the Week

The Atlanta Falcons played a complete game in Week 6 and as a result, came away with their first win of the season. Quarterback Matt Ryan was nearly perfect, completing 30 of 40 passes for 371 yards, four touchdowns, zero interceptions and a passer rating of 136.6.

Ryan’s big performance earned him NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors.

Atlanta’s former MVP QB was in somewhat of a slump prior to Week 6. He failed to throw a touchdown in the previous two games. For the season, Ryan has thrown for 11 touchdowns, three interceptions and 1,843 passing yards for a quarterback rating of 97.8.

In Week 7, Ryan gets to face off against his pal Matt Stafford when the Detroit Lions (2-3) come to town on Sunday.
