VIDEO: Alternate Angle of Matt Ryan Getting Absolutely Obliterated by Stiff Arm is Gold
By Michael Luciano
On a good day, Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan is around 215 pounds. New Orleans Saints rookie defensive tackle Shy Tuttle is just over 300 pounds. What did you think was going to happen? After picking off Ryan in what turned out to be a 26-18 win for New Orleans, Tuttle spiked the former MVP into the turf on the ensuing interception return, and every new angle that emerges of Ryan getting dominated by Tuttle looks even worse for the veteran signal-caller.

Despite the best efforts of kicker (and onside kick magician) Younghoe Koo, Atlanta fell to 3-9 on the season as they likely brace for the end of the Dan Quinn era.
The Saints, meanwhile, clinched a playoff spot on the back of a largely dominant performance in which they abused rookie tackle Kaleb McGary and sacked Ryan nine times, punctuated with this highlight reel play from Tuttle.
If anyone was wondering why the Falcons don’t play Matt Ryan at linebacker, this is probably why

If there was ever a video that depicted the current balance of power in the NFC South, the Saints slamming Ryan to the turf ON THE ROAD certainly suffices.
