Yeah what you missed, of course, was the poster above making a comment that Ryan never really used a te, so I wanted to check that out, found out that in Ryan’s 14 season at Qb for the Falcons, the falcons had a ff te1 9 of those seasons.  

So that indeed shows that when he had a good te he did use them.  

I glad you found that to be helpful.  

Thanks.  

I bet when a team has a top tier running back they use them a lot too.

Man you should write email blasts

See this is why they need to replace the name from FFToday, to, Sean Mooney FFToday. 

You guru you.

The success of TEs in Atlanta was due not to Matt Ryan, but to the offensive coordinator, Dirk Koetter, who was a bit of a "TE Whisperer" throughout his career.

First, Dirk Koetter coached the most prolific TE in Arizona State history, at the time, Zach Miller.  As the OC of the Jaguars, Koetter propelled Marcedes Lewis into the Pro Bowl.  He then went to Atlanta, where he brought in Tony Gonzalez to fill the strong role of TE in his offense, and he was still the OC in Atlanta when Austin Hooper had his big year (and of course Hooper has faded back into the woodwork outside of Koetter's influence).  Koetter went on to become the head coach of the Buccaneers, where he made Cameron Brate fantasy relevant for a couple of years.

So Ryan was just doing what his OC asked him to do--get the ball to his TE.
