6 toughest quarterbacks the Vikings will face in 2022
By Adam Carlson
5. Matt Ryan, Indianapolis Colts (Week 15)
In recent years, Matt Ryan hasn’t looked like the quarterback he was back in 2016 when he was the MVP of the league. Instead, his offenses in Atlanta have struggled to pick up first downs and get in the end zone.
Things should be very different for Ryan in 2022. A change in scenery to Indianapolis should do wonders for the veteran quarterback as he joins a team with a very good offensive line and an amazing young running back.
Matt Ryan wasn’t bad in 2021 despite being on a roster that lacked talent around him. He still completed 67 percent of his passes for 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions while throwing for 3,968 yards and absorbing 40 sacks.
You will hear people say that Matt Ryan is washed up and past his prime, but the 37-year-old passer still has some gas in the tank and is in an amazing position to show that he has a lot more to offer the NFL before he hangs up his cleats for good.
Biggest challenges:
- Experience
- Surrounding cast
- Big arm
