, The Falcoholic’s Jordan Watkins and I sat down for a small Q&A for one another’s publications.
1. Rookie quarterback Desmond Ridder is expected to start against the Ravens after his debut last week. What did you see last week that breeds confidence in Ridder for this game?
Looking at last week, the numbers weren’t great for Ridder, but I liked how he kept battling back. The thing for me with rookie quarterbacks isn’t fully about the numbers, but how they react when things don’t go well. Everyone in the Falcons locker room talks about the leader he is and their confidence in him.
