Chris (Mass): Matt, the only thing that people have held against you going into this draft are the int's you threw your senior year. We've heard all the experts on their opinions why or why not, so what is your response to them?
Matt Ryan: The thing about INTs is as a QB if you throw an INT you put your team at a disadvantage. Our philosophy this year was to be aggressive. We did what we needed to do to win games and we won 11 this year. But it's certainly something I need to work on, but I don't want to lose the aggressive approach to throw the ball in there and make a play.

I'm wondering what Bill Parcells will make of that. On one hand, you have to admire his confidence, but on the other, Bill doesn't want a guy being a cowboy with the football.

Jagodzinski is on record saying that he made Ryan get more aggressive. He was willing to trade the ints for Touchdown drives. The anti-Harrington philosphy. Guarantee he reiterated that to Bill. In 2006 under a less aggressive philosophy he threw 10 picks. Just remember that every year he started his QB rating was over 125

I think that is good that he is agresive but he needs to be smart
