There’s one opponent who has escaped the fury of the fans in Foxborough, Mass., and even has a considerable amount of goodwill in the heart of New England. In fact, it’s hard to find any kind of animosity toward Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan, who built his reputation at Boston College and will face the Patriots in the Super Bowl.
