Matt Ryan has the most 300-yard passing games since 2018

To say the Atlanta Falcons have lacked balance over the last two seasons would be an understatement.

To say the Atlanta Falcons have lacked balance over the last two seasons would be an understatement.

The team’s ground attack averaged just 85.1 yards per game in 2019, the third-lowest average in the league. Meanwhile, the Falcons’ passing offense put up 294.6 yards per game, the third-highest average in the NFL last season.

Atlanta has a quarterback in Matt Ryan that is capable of flinging the ball all over the field, but having at least some threat of a running game is what takes high-powered offenses to the next level.

However, playing in such a one-dimensional offense has put Ryan in rare air, leading the league in games of 300 or more passing yards over the past two years. As highlighted in the below Pro Football Focus tweet, the Falcons QB has gone over 300 yards 19 times since 2018.

Patrick Mahomes (17 games) is second, James Winston (16 games) is third, and Jared Goff (14 games) is fourth in the league in 300-yard performances since the start of the 2018 season.
