Matt Ryan passed for 389 yards on Sunday, allowing him to leapfrog Dan Marino for seventh on the all-time passing yardage list.
\"I\'m proud of that,\" Ryan said. \"I\'ve gotten to know Dan since I got into the league back in 2008 and I love him. He\'s a fun guy to be around. He was the ultimate guy when I was growing up, he\'d sling it. And I remember the first time I met him he said, \'Hey, no matter what happens man, keep slinging it.\' I was like 23 at the time, I was like, that\'s one of the coolest things I\'ve ever heard. And here I am 37 and still remember him saying that to me. Any time you\'re mentioned in the same breath as Dan, it\'s pretty cool, and I\'m proud of that.\"
Ryan now has 61,500 career passing yards. Next up on the all-time list are No. 6 Philip Rivers (63,440 yards) and No. 5 Ben Roethlisberger (64,088 yards).
