Matt Ryan has been tremendous throughout the 2016 season and his play early in the NFC Championship has the Atlanta Falcons up, 17-0, over the Green Bay Packers. While the team’s offense is full of explosive playmakers, Ryan is making things happen all on his own.
Falcons are having such an easy time with Packers that Matt Ryan scored rushing TD
Matt Ryan’s last rushing touchdown was Week 1 of the 2012 season.
After throwing a creative flip pass touchdown on the Falcons’ opening possession, he scored another touchdown by running 14 yards untouched to extend Atlanta’s lead.
The touchdown was set up by a fumble from Packers fullback Aaron Ripkowski that was recovered by Atlanta for a touchdown. And Ryan wasted no time carving up the Green Bay defense on a nine-play, 80-yard drive.
But the rushing touchdown is even more impressive, considering the fact that Ryan hasn’t ran for a score on his own since Week 1 of the 2012 season.
In just the first three drives of the game for Atlanta, Ryan racked up 187 passing yards and 14 rushing yards.
