Matt Ryan, you were my quarterback. I watched every game that you played in a falcon uniform one way or another whether it was highlights or paying for pass and I appreciate everything you brought us as a franchise you for everything that you gave us.

Same here! He qa under appreciated and countless times over delivered! We were spoiled for 14 years, and ironically as I type this the hair band Cinderella song DONT KNOWNWJAT YA GOT UNTIL ITS GONE is playing on the radio.....that is sadly how Matt's tenure was viewed and handled by many that would never openly admit it. Most luck warm fans didn't know what we jad in Matt Ryan bc they were too busy trying to run him outta town bc of their Vick hangover syndrome! Matt gave us the most sustained success EVER in franchise history and came within a hair of winning us a Super Bowl (thank DQ for that debacle). Matt will be missed as a player, a leader and our QB, but his legacy WILL BE THE STANDARD for future Falcons QBs, and until someone wins us a Super Bowl, Matt will always be the GOAT as the Falcons QBs!

Matt, my son's first Falcons football game was October 2008 when you beat the Chicago Bears with 11 seconds left. My son had a choice: to meet some of the Falcons players or watch the rest of the game....He told me "I'm not going to miss this game, Matt's got this!" That 16 year old kid is now 33 and you've been his favorite QB ever since. Thank you, Matt, we love you ❤️🖤❤️🖤

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DID MATTY ICE....YOU WILL ALWAYS BE LOVED HERE IN ATLANTA 🔴⚫️🔴⚫️👏👏👏👏👏👏

Damn... I'm a Washington fan and watching this even made me a little teary eyed. Thanks for an awesome career, Matt. You were a pleasure to watch for every football fan, and I hope we hear more of you every sunday in the booth. God bless. Hope another all-time great comes along in another draft some day for all you ATL fans.🙏🏼

Honestly got teary eyed watching this. I loved watching him play and he was probably the best quarterback Atlanta ever had so far.

Matt Ryan , Damn , Thank You For Being The Fearless Quarterback That You Were For Us Die Hard Atlanta Falcons Fans. We Will Always Be Appreciative Of You. RISE UP , PEACE

Big ups to you, Matt. Congratulations on your retirement. While we didn't achieve the ultimate goal, it was a hell of ride along the way. You're a Hall of famer in my book. 1000%

I wish I can go back to me being in the 5th grade , watching Matt Ryan enter his rookie year . Cheering for my falcons . Matt Ryan was my quarterback ! That’s all I knew growing up .

Atlanta Falcons legend. What a player and human being. Thank you for all the memories

Matt Ryan.. when you came to Atlanta I didn't know who my team was going to be for life. You made me be a ATL Falcons fan forever. I bleed atlanta. Matty Ice.. you will always be Matty Ice.... we love you and we will always remember what you brought Atlanta... Rise Up!!

That’s my quarterback 🥺. The city of Atlanta will forever be appreciative to you 💪🏾💯

Matt, I wanna thank you for everything for representing my city and my favorite team; Atlanta Falcons. Rise Up forever!

Thank you Matt for everything

Thank you Matt Ryan for everything you gave to Atlanta, and the Falcons and to me as a fan!

I don’t usually get emotional for retirements but this one got me! Thank you Matt Ryan for all the great years! You will be missed!

Thank you Ryan for your leadership and dedication to this team and city.

Thanks for the memories Matt

Thanks my quarterback! Thank you matt for being the best you could be!

The greatest !!

Congratulations 🎉🎈🎊🍾 Matt Ryan Matty Ice 🧊

Thanks for everything Matty Ice ❄️

Thank you Matt we love you

Thanks matty Ice for everything u did in Atlanta

This definitely got me all in my feelings. Ryan was my QB from me being a kid all the way to adulthood. Met him once, super super nice guy. Gave me 7 or 8 minutes of his time and was the best QB all time for my team. Shows how much life really isnt fair. After 2016, i thought the team would be back and Ryan would get one before he retired, and never did. You deserved a ring, team and mostly the OC robbed you of your greatness being evaluated to another level. Thank you Matt for everything you have done for the Falcons, all the great moments you have given me and my son throughout the years and for everything you did for the city of Atlanta. Much appreciated from me!

Thank you Matty Ice👍🏾

Thank you brother you deserve your flowers 💐 one of the best to ever do it📈💯

THAT'S MY QUARTERBACK 😢

Moved to Atlanta the year they drafted Matt Ryan and randomly decided to go to a few home games that year. Something about that team I just felt a connection with and Matt Ryan was one hell of a QB.

He will always be remembered for 28-3

Awesome Video--Simply the Best to Ever do it Here! Congrats on your Retirement Matty Ice! Thanks for the memories!

We were lucky to have you Matt. God bless!

Hard to believe it’s been this long. I remember being a 21 year old kid pumped that we “got our guy” and man he was awesome. Sad we couldn’t get that ring but memories last a lifetime. Congrats Matty Ice!

Thankyou Matt ❤ you accomplished a lot in my eyes ✊💯

Thank you Matt! Took my son and wife to there very first game with you as our QB! You will forever be loved in ATL RISE UP!!!!!!!!!

Matt Ryan you are among the great quarterBacks of all time!! You lifted our ATL football up far higher than most of our fans expected!! You created excitement on the field week after week!! You are and have always been such a leader on and off the field!! You have always been admirable when speaking to the press and public, even when circumstances were tough. You and your family have been so generous to our city!! It is so sad to me that our team did not always give you the support you deserve to reach your maximum potential!! You and your wonderful family are cherished!! Can’t wait to see what the next chapter holds for you!! So enjoyed your broadcasting last year!! Hope there will be more to enjoy!! God bless you and your family!! Thank you for the fun!!!

It brings me to tears of how the years went by that long 😢 Matty Ice, I love you so much man. You were my fav qb growing up and I will love forever. Thank you for all of the hard work you put into Atlanta. Love you man

Thank you so very much!!! Mr Matty Ice Ryan you help heal and strengthen our belief in the Atlanta falcons again after the Mr Vick debacle!!! You sir brought the fan base back !!! Goooo Falcons rise up!!!

I will always wear my Atlanta Falcons #2 Matt Ryan jersey with pride & a ton of awesome memories of watching you lead the Falcons, leaving it all out on the field!! Not gonna lie, you made my eyes leak while I watched this… Thank you to my QB1! God bless you!

Your the best we've ever had. Thank you for what you did for us.

❤❤❤ 💯💯💯 #2 Will Live On Forever In The ATL

As a Saints fan, I must say it was always a pleasure watching you play my Saints twice a year. You and Drew made this rivalry beautiful. Thank you Matt

Matt Ryan, you are certainly my favorite football player of all time. I watched every single one of your games and If I missed one by chance I caught the highlights. Not only did you give it your all on the field, you were a class act off the field your entire career. Your ability to find success with below average defensive numbers from the team almost you whole career is incredible. I truly believe you are the most underrated Quarterback of all time.

Man didnt think this would hit me emotionally, but Matt Ryan Thank you for all the hard work you put into this team!! You brought back what it meant to have winning seasons and a winning team to Atlanta!! I've watched every game since the day you were drafted and have always had confidence the ball was well taken care of every time you released it ever since your first pass TD in the regular season your rookie year!! Ever since that game I knew i wanted a Matt Ryan jersey, no doubt! And have taken countless pictures with it since and proudly I might add!! Thank you for all the years of being a proud Atlanta Falcons fan with you at the helm!!! Gonna miss watching you play Matty Ice!!!

Absolute Legend! Thank you Matty Ice!

Im a Raider fan. Youve been a joy to watch outside of my Raiders. Wish you couldve played for us. Thanks for the memories Matt.

It's hypocritical how they did you Matt , the real fans know. Thanks for all the great memories and years. I was at your first falcons game , your last and plenty in between

I still wear my nr 2 Falcons jersey and will continue to do so proudly. Thank you Matt. You did not take us all the way, but It was damn close.

Looking forward to your HOF induction. I, for one, truly appreciated having you to cheer for. One of my prized possessions is my Matt Ryan autographed mini helmet, I wanted the full size one but couldn't afford it😊. Thanks again Matt for the memories. Nothing was more rewarding than seeing a true professional at work.

So many memories you left us with. We appreciate you so much!!

Matt Ryan you were my childhood hero from 2015-2022 you were my favorite quarterback and watched every single one of your games, I know things didn't end well in the Superbowl but your still a badass nonetheless you gave this franchise life for 14 years and you will go down as the greatest falcon ever, thank you HALL OF FAMER Matt Ryan ❤️

Thank you matt, i remember when you first started, i was at the flea market after your first season and i was 7 years old. A kind man handed me a cases Matt Ryan rookie card, i treasured that card my whole life as a falcons fan. It’s worthless monetary value but the joy of watching you and julio together for years, its priceless memories

Thanks for the memories amigo. Best of luck in ALL you do moving forward.

You were my first jersey matt. I still wear it with pride out here in texas. Thank you for being such a professional and such a damn good quarterback. Enjoy the next chapter in your life.

This video was 3:25 in length. If you add those two numbers together it equals 28… 28-3 will never die.

Thank you so much for everything, Mr. Ryan. This man deserves to be in the hall of fame. Sadly, the nfl doesn’t see it that way. We will always love you, #2. Sad we could never get him or Julio a ring :( Happy retirement, Matt. Day 20 of asking the Atlanta Falcons to change their uniforms in 2025.

Thank you Matt. You are my favorite player. You are the best pick ATL ever made! Thanks for all you did for us and all the hard work you put in. Good luck in the future.

Thank you for all of your greatness. We appreciate and love you

Best Wishes, Hawtie 💗🧸

Well said and immensely appreciated. You proved to be the best, on and off the field. Toughness and resilience marked your character as a person. You've been missed since day one. Enjoy your next chapter and all the rewards to come.

I watched this guy light up the field at Boston college as a kid, and damn was I sad he never got the ring he deserved. Great qb, an amazing man, and I’m happy he made it

A class act all the way through. A steady hand that Atlanta could rely on. The glue that held the org together. Atlanta has truly not been the same since he retired and he will be missed.

One of my favorite memories with my dad who is passed on now was watching his first game. We are Packers fans but they played a later game that year. I remember his first pass being a touchdown and my dad saying wow that doesn't happen ever. This kids Gunna be good. Matty Ice gained a couple of fans that day.

I’m so grateful for Matt to have been my introduction to sports as a young kid into my teens. The Falcons, and Matt specifically, were a transformative part of who I am. As I turn 27 in three days, it’s the grit and determination that came with being a fan of this team and a fan of Matt that has carried me so far in life. Thank you.

🐐

I’ve been a Falcons fan since 1975 and have only had 2 quarterbacks - Steve Bartkowski and Matt Ryan. Thanks for all you and your family have done for the franchise and our city. You were often maligned and under appreciated, but true Falcons fans know we were blessed to have you under center for all those years. I’m looking forward to your HOF induction 5 years from now. RISE UP Matty Ice!

Love you forever Matt Ice

My quarterback, my team. Thank you for everything you brought to Atlanta, Matt, hope to be hearing you on the radio and seeing you on TV continuing to bring the good news about the Falcons. Blessings to you and your family and the Falcons 👏🏻

Still miss you Matty Ice. 😢❤🖤. Gonna miss you, Sara and the Boys! You are a great QB. Wish you well, you will be great in everything you do going forward. ATL is your home and you are Family. Thank you for everything you done. ❤️🖤❤️🖤😊🥰🎉

Congratulations on your retirement MR2. Thank you for the memories and best of luck in your future.

#2 gave a lot for this city. Proud to have the opportunity to watch this man grow up, hell of a player and even better of a man. Thank you from this fan, I am grateful for all you gave to the game.

Thank you, Matt. You will always be Matty Ice to me and my favorite Falcons QB of all time. You deserved better than our team was able to give you. I will always think of you as a leader and an underappreciated elite QB and person. Thanks for everything and congratulations to you and your family.❤

Thanks for the memories the good ones and the bad ones

Thank you for all the years and good luck in your post-playing career now.

Matt, thank you for providing me with & playing a part in some of the best memories of my life. You led this team, organization & this city with class. Led our team in the trenches & were the ultimate underdog. Will never forget. Thank you Matt Ryan. The real ones know how much you’ve meant to this organization & to our city.
