ATLANTA (AP) - Mike Tirico and Jon Gruden better talk fast.
ESPN's broadcast crew may not have much time for commentary in Denver's game at Atlanta on Monday night.
The Falcons are embracing the no-huddle offense with quarterback Matt Ryan. And, as Ryan says, the master of the no-huddle attack will be on the other sideline.
Ryan says he has tried to pick up lessons on how to work the no-huddle by watching tapes of Denver quarterback Peyton Manning's years with the Colts. Ryan says Manning is as good at moving offenses without a huddle "as anybody who has ever played."
Manning returned the compliment by calling Ryan "an excellent quarterback."
Ryan flourished in the no-huddle last week, passing for three touchdowns in the Falcons' 40-24 win at Kansas City.
