Desmond Ridder led the Falcons to a 24-15 victory last Sunday over the New Orleans Saints and in doing so he highlighted what may be his best asset at this young stage of his career, the ability to rebound and move-on from mistakes.

"His ability to not look back, look forward, his ability to move on to the next play, he does a really good job of not camping on something he made a mistake on," says Falcons Analyst Dave Archer. "His ability to move on is really important, all quarterbacks need to be able to do that, that's the way you've got to be as a player."


While many were still lamenting another turnover, and giving the ball away certainly remains an issue for Ridder, the drive immediately after his 2nd interception of the day against the Saints he led a 9-play, 95-yard drive that culminated in a beautiful 26-yard pass to Bijan Robinson for a TD.
