Matt Ryan was all smiles after Thursday night’s win against the Carolina Panthers. Here’s what the veteran quarterback said in the post-game press meet.

“Absolutely. We’ve been in every game that we played this year. We’ve had some crazy losses, just to be frank. I really believe that we’ve got the caliber of team to go be in every game that we’re going to play for the rest of the season. Why can’t we win them all? That’s the mindset that I have.”
