Jim Haslett wary of "outstanding" Matt Ryan

Washington Redskins defensive coordinator Jim Haslett has admitted that his side must find a way to limit Matt Ryan if they are to get anything from the game against Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.

Haslett said that without wide receiver Julio Jones, Ryan might not be as effective but he is still capable of changing games on his day.

"Well, obviously the quarterback is outstanding," Haslett told the club's official website. "He's good. He can make all the throws. He's got great weapons around him.

"Not having Julio and their line is beat up a little bit, obviously that's affected him, but they've still got receivers that are really scary. They do a great job blocking.

"They've got probably four of the best running backs as a whole, as a group, as anybody in the league. They're still good. They're ranked high on offense. They're good and they've got a lot of weapons."

Both the Redskins and Falcons are 3-10 for the season so far.
