This is despite of playing with guys like Julio Jones, Tony Gonzalez, etc. In a dome, nine times a year.

He'll forever be remembered as the QB that blew it in epic fashion on the greatest stage in the worst loss in Superbowl history. He's overrated. Sorry, not sorry. Atlanta should have done this years ago instead of waiting until now to trade him. 

He's a very, very poor man's Peyton Manning.

I never claimed he was some elite talent. Pretty solid resume if you ask me though. Rarely had a decent defense to pair with the offenses that produced while he was QB. Pro bowl is a joke. And I don't think HE blew it in the SB. Shanahan, the defense, everyone shares blame for the 28-3 fiasco. I also think the whole dome thing you keep repeating is a bit overblown.

He ate two sacks, back to back around the 50 yard line in that 2nd half collapse in the Superbowl. That could have potentially led to points. His career is solid. Not arguing that. 

My argument is that he's overrated. I don't think he would have cut it in a city like Green Bay, Baltimore, Kansas City, etc. Playing inside a dome has a tremendous benefit. No elements to contest with. Your receiver benefits as well, etc. 

Whatever. You say tomato and I say potato. That's the beauty of opinions. Cheers!
