So frustrating and so disappointing.

Well, we now know why.

Because Dixon got suspended...

Makes a lot more sense now.  

Sorry to see him go, but way too expensive. I wish him well.

I think they're all about the same.  Flaherty probably has more versatility but has a decently high salary.  Think they're hoping one of the other 2 play well enough to take a small step back in versatility.

So do you think if they choose one of the other two Flaherty will be cut or stay at triple A?

Yep.  Non-roster invitee likely battling it out with Flaherty and Giovatella for the utility infielder slot.

Oh, okay, thanks. I don't know who Giovatella is. So, out of three who do you think is the best option?

Glad to see Ubaldo pitched well yesterday, but is anyone else a little concerned about the lack or runs we are scoring? I see some of the insane runs some of the other teams are having. I think one team scored 19 and another 15 runs this week. I know there is all kinds of reasons for this (that I do understand), but we are not putting up very much lately, although we are not giving up those high number of runs either, so I guess that is a good sign - although I think we are a minus 4 right now in RS v RA.

I'm not too concerned about the lack of runs...yet.

I admit I don't pay a lot of attention to pre-season, but Robert Andino is on the team?

You have to keep Wallace. If he goes there wouldn't be any reliability at that position. Definitely not what the team needs.

He would be an idiot to come back. He is a very safe and reliable receiver that felt wronged by the coaches. He's not coming back unless we make him an offer better than what he's getting from other teams. When have the Ravens ever paid someone more that way?

Not a reliable receiver by a long shot. And did you see his terrible special teams play, did you watch the games? I wish him well and success on another team.

He's a major case of what could have been.

True, but I loved watching him throw runners out at second.

So Wieters signed with the Nats. I am going to miss him.

Tillman won't be ready for opening day. That is a bummer.

There is absolutely nothing attractive about him other than his undeserved paycheck.   To me he looks like bart simpsons nothing more to be said.  Brady is handsome, Flacco is not!  Just average Joe.

Jealousy is not attractive either.

Are we a little short in the sense of humor department today? Geez.  

"Joe Flacco is hot!" = "Joe shouldn't worry about his stupid hair, no wonder he sucks at being a quarterback! Not only that, he beat out Tom Brady on this list so that is only going to make Brady pick on our defense. When our D gives it up against the Patriots it will be ALL JOE'S FAULT! He obviously is just a greedy man stealing all that money and using it to buy more hair products. We need to get one of those awesome ugly rookie quarterbacks who doesn't care about looks and is really cheap!"

Lmao, not surprising that a light hearted article about Joe's looks turns into how poorly he plays. Well done, I would expect nothing less.

No, it doesn't matter what a player looks like obviously.

But it certainly doesn't hurt that he looks that good.

The Falcons can make it back to the Super Bowl if they fire their OC, fire their DC, fire their HC for not running the ball & horrible clock management. Get rid of their overpriced $100 million choke artist QB that can't win a play-off game - they can sign Ryan Mallett for 1/5 of the cost. That would free up $ so they could sign Eric Berry, Brandon Williams & Alshon Jeffery. Draft Darrell Revi...I mean Desmond King in the 1st Round, and Alpha Dawgs - DeVonte Fields & Joe Mixon. Hire Gary Kubiak, Norv Turner & Rex Ryan as coaches. Trade Tevin Coleman to the Browns for Joe Haden & a 1st Round pick. Sign Anquan Boldin & Bernard Pollard. Easily win the next 3 straight Super Bowls.....

It would be so easy, wouldn't it? Lol.

I have no respect for the Patriots at all. So I really want them to lose. I would really enjoy it if they lost big.

You're reaching, dude. Since SB 47, Flacco has finished near the bottom of the league each year. The guy stinks.

The overall offense has stunk, many reasons factor into that including dropped balls.  And I am not a dude.

Yeah Joe was ELITE in 2012, we all know that. Can we please stop talking about the past? We are Ravens Fans, leave the talking about the past thing to the Steelers and Cowboys Fans. 

The article is discussing the best Super Bowl performances by quarterbacks. So we are supposed to just ignore what Joe did because it was the past? Ridiculous.

Every team has crucial drops too

Of course they do. But you can't just discount ours because of that. Any stats to show who has the most important drops?

Ravens were ranked #15 in the league in dropped passes. Right in the middle. Every team has dropped passes. 

How about crucial drops? There is a difference you know.

Flacco won a SB with a great TEAM in 2012. It is now 2017. It's time to let it go and focus on what he has done lately.

Yes, let's just forget or completely ignore one of sports' greatest accomplishments. It was a team effort, but it is obvious that Joe's fantastic play lead them to the victory. Oh wait, let's pretend that never happened either.

Rickard, Chen, Mancini might cover it.

I have to see much more of Mancini.

Three or four of those would be great!          

Yes, please!!!

Issue is that he's a platoon guy though.

Agree, we need an everyday player who has speed and can get on base.

Oh, and don't forget you can't play rookies because they make errors.
