I never said he should be able to. Obviously you didn’t read the post. He couldn’t handle them once, he couldn’t handle them twice, how the hell can he handle them a third time?

The kid was nonsense last year and overthrew half his passes. Luckily Mason and Clayton who you claim to be below average receivers (yeah okay, right away I should ignore your comment) made ridiculous catches for Flacco’s bad throws.

Flacco failed us last year like I said and needs to redeem himself BIG TIME.

I’m not going to waste anymore time formulating an intelligent response. Even Browns fan can appreciate what Flacco brings. I can’t believe you said that he should have been benched.

I would delete this post right away. Quite possibly the worst thing I have read since the one guy coming in here and saying kyle boller could have beat the steelers. You are insane if you dont trust Joe. Your right, rookies from small schools are always supposed to come in and lead your team to the superbowl. 100% right buddy.

How far did Matt Ryan get in the playoffs again? And dont give me that bullshit, “He doesnt have the type of defense we have” Would Ed Reed or Ray Lewis make that throw to Mason for the only TD we got against the Titans in the AFC Divisional game? NO!

Stop crying, get over that we lost. No QB has ever won a road playoff game before Joe, and he won 2. You are idiotic for making a post like this. One more year then he is done, give me a break man. Pathetic

Joe won the playoff game against the Titans, yeah ok? What was the score again.. yeah there was a whole lot of Joe offense! Look at his numbers and tell me he’s great. I never said he doesn’t have the potential to be great, hell, we can say Eli could be great, but they’re not without a defense backing or a Plaxico Burress.

You people are idiots and need to stick your heads in the ground.

….if this posting by this guy is just a big joke on all of us. Probably been on numerous sites with his only purpose to stir things up. Something tells me he’s also pissed at Kurt Warner for not winning the Super Bowl and fumbling at the end. He also has to think that Tom Brady should have won the Giants Superr Bowl game and still needs to redeem and prove himself as well.

Flacco only QB’d us to the brink of the Super Bowl. I guess if next year we make it but lose in the Super Bowl, he’ll blame him and say he needs to redeem himself in his third season and still needs to prove himself as well.

You’re free to continue to post here, Jakeness, but don’t insult our intelligenc or continue to embarass yourself with empty posts such as this one. Just not worth the continued responses, so guys, I recommend ignoring anything after this comment.

About what? You can’t back up anything you’ve said. So nothing you said matters. Better luck next time.

Flacco still needs to prove himself.

He was a rookie with a rookie coach with a 1st year starting RB and a beat up Willis. He had 1 receiver and a beat to shit Heap. He was up against the number 1 D. He brought us back in the first game when our D failed us and gave us the lead in the second game when Pitt again scored on the D late. He almost beat the 2nd best team in the league Tenn twice. But again, our D let a last minute 80 yard drive occur. For a rookie he was excellent learning everything that goes into one game plan. He had his blind spots but those great D’s do that to you. We were 3 games better than anyone expected this year. Easy to get spoiled. AFC Champioship game. We played 1 less game than the World Champs and better team.

Thanks for your mature opinion Raven. And you make good points like everyone else, I was just stating how I felt. I mean, I hope the damn kid becomes the greatest QB of all time, I really do, but this is just how I feel right now and I was expressing that. Thanks for the welcome as well!

we’ll give you a hard time to start just to see if your a troll or actually want to chill here for a few months…trust me, everyone can take getting goofed on and MaLoRs used to it after getting busted for selling his sperm to the Octomom for UMD bristle blocks and lincoln logs.

your from LA….have you bagged any celebs or had your house crashed into by someone out of rehab?

lol

lol

this post well

is interesting your the first guy that has ever really said that like going to the afc championship with a rokkie quater back is not good at all lol

but i do respect your opinion and im not goinfg to insult you or anything but ima leave you to think where we would be without him =/

2008: ­Earned the 2008 Diet Pepsi Rookie of the Year Award as he started all 16 games, connecting on 60% of his passes (257 of 428) for 2,971 yards, 14 TDs and12 INTs for an 80.3 rating (4th­ highest single ­season rating in Ravens history) – Joe Flacco

Diet Pepsi Rookie of the Year Award Winner:

The rookie Joe Flacco, now second year player has proven him self to be valuable to this franchise more than any other make due quarterback we’ve had in the past. Dilfer took us to a SB but wasn’t a rookie and Joe actually posted better numbers than Dilfer on a path to a second SB that was stalled. Trent was in the middle of his career at the time and didn’t come back to Baltimore the following year. Trent’s career never brought glory to him again. Unfortunately his 2000 season with us has been seen as the best season a QB with the Ravens has had in our franchise history. Just harping on things I’ve heard from people not necessarily in this Blog. Who can blame them for accepting mediocrity, can you? I believe we’ve finally found our guy to take the snaps for years to come. Imagine the possibilities for Joe, their endless. If someone can not see a bright future for this kid or at least acknowledge a potential then I can’t help you.

Trent’s stats: http://www.nfl.com/players/trentdilfer/profile?id=DIL049692
-Dilfer’s career was sub par at best.

compared w/ Boller and McNair:

In 2007 the Ravens had something like only three passes over 20 yards the ENTIRE year. Joe had something like 25 last season over 20 yards. ’Nuff said there.

no problem..i need the reading so keep on writing…the steelers were the best team hands down last year. We had a hell of a time moving the ball againt Pitt-frustratingly hard..But, our new coaches made some critical mistakes with red flags and personnel choices (D-Masons TD where he toes the end zone but called incomplete/why we kept running a doubled over McGahee when McClaine had your number in game 1….). We need to pull it all together this year. We all pray for a bigger receiver to compliment Mason and Clayton (who was not utilized very well in the AFC Champ game-or simply smothered by your deep coverage). It a 2 horse race next year and will be amazingly exciting. Thanks to Bengirls and Brownies we will be well rested for each other.

Flacco’s second season will be critical. Will he progress or regress? To judge any player off of one season, especially a rookie season is a mistake. Add in the fact that Cam designed a great offense to protect and showcase Flacco’s ability. Lets be honest here, Flacco handled by another organization could have been a complete failure. But that assures me that the team should be able to facilitate Flacco’s growth. There were a lot of intangibles that I liked from Flacco. Remember at the start of the year, when getting flushed to the sidelines, he would throw an errant interception vice making sure it went out of bounds? Almost right away, Flacco stopped doing it. You didn’t see him continue to make the same mistakes over an over again. His poise was another huge bonus. On the sidelines and during the game, you didn’t see a vast difference in how Flacco approach a team, whether it was the Bengals or the Titans. That isn’t to say he had the same success, but you didn’t see him regress into rookie mistakes when facing a quality team. He struggled against very good defenses last year. That’s something most QBs did. He’s got a lot to improve on of course, but as a Raven’s fan, I can’t see anything from him that didn’t make me happy as hell they drafted him.

and someone else out there. Oh, and he needs to redeem himself as well. Right?

I am protesting this fanpost

Interestingly, I think troy Smith would have had better games againt Pitt (scrambling, throw on run) but as far as the entire seaon goes- Joes the man and any benching would have just knocked his confidence and made for a miserable offseason..and may have affected signings. I’m not saying Troy is better by any means but with a beat up McGahee and unopen receivers in the Pitt games, Troy might have been a big spark and bought time.

i was really hoping Troy would go to the Jets and be the starter..I really want to see the guy play every sunday. he’s a winner and will win. way too much is made of his height. i feel for the guy.

i also want to make a predicition that Shawn Hill will be a very good NFL QB should he get the starting kob in San Fran. He’s a winner and beat Phil Rivers in college and a lot of other big name QB’s.. He’s not flashy but has that uncanny ability to make things happen. he is extremely accurate and wins. i really like Hill.

if he didn’t get sick at the begining of the season he’s the starter..

A lot of good that BC education did….

Enough said…

Flacco did throw into triple coverage to end the game..just sayin
