The story of his career is almost made up by the plays his receivers didn't make. I've never seen a quarterback have his receivers let him down as often or in as many big moments as we've seen happen to Joe.I like the description a few posts up, saying he has the widest range of skill...Flacco can go from one extreme to the other in the same game, much less week to week. I think a big reason for that is the lack of talent around him. If his guys make one play each week the first three weeks, we are 4-0 atop the division
Or the times the defense has completely let him down.
I agree with this 100%. There are those who point the finger at him at all costs and then those who do not allow him to be criticized at all. And yes, he is a strange one. I would say he has the biggest range of a QB when it comes to ability and what you get on the field. Meaning, he can stink it up like a 6th round draft pick getting his first start in the NFL, yet the next week go off completely with 4 or 5 TDs, threading every single pass like no other.
Basically one week we're like "Yeah! That's Joe Flacco!"
Next week we're like "...Yep....that's Joe Flacco"
How about the misconception that Joe is not a "leader".
@gdowning14: After last night’s win, Joe Flacco went around the locker room to shake hands with every player to congratulate them on the win.
Seriously. Guy is a class act.
Game balls to both kickers!
Game ball to both kickers
Wow. Just wow. This game. I haven't ever seen anything like it.
Zuttah was holding. Got lucky
The steelers been holding all night
This is cruel, watching this game
Tomlin is trying to give us a pity win. Lol
Wowwwwwwsssssssswwwwwwwwwwwwwwowwwwwwwwwwwwww
Watch him make this
There is so much [profanity deleted] holding by their line
Game over.
Season over?
Well, they do need a field goal...lol
Does anyone know how to tackle?
Ugh. If Flacco could have gotten that ball to the other shoulder, might have been caught
So anyone there at the game to step in at receiver?
Wow. Tomlin might have just given us the game
I call that Vick will either throw a pick 6 or a fumble recovery on the steelers first possession. The Ravens score and the.....
RAVENS WIN!!
almost!!!
Ozzie: we don't need ngata. We don't need Boldin. We don't need Torrey.
Oh crap.... We're 0-4
Our defense is absolutely atrocious.
Maybe Yamon Figurs is still available...lol
We could possibly try playing Waller more. If anything, at least send him deep 5-10 times a game to clear out the defense.
In general, I don't think anyone is more mad about Perriman not playing, as much as everyone is mad about the Ravens not releasing any information about the injury.
If right from the get go, they would have said he has a PCL sprain and could miss the first few weeks with them saying he aggravated it and needed surgery, the outcry would be far less than everyone hoping every week he gets better from an injury no one knows anything about or if its getting better or worse
Exactly. It's frustrating
This might get merged with something, but now that we know Perriman is done for the season, should we consider a trade for someone to help with our slim chances this season? Or just play what we got considering we're 0-3 already?
I don't know of any speedy free agents worth signing.

Omg, Flacco did not break the bank! Do you understand salary cap and how Flacco is being paid? When will people stop spewing this garbage about Flacco being the reason we can't afford good players? It's one thing to criticize Joe but don't make crap up that's not true.
