Week 11 Edition; Flacco has been bested by his share of rookie, journeyman or never was quarterbacks this season. At risk of feeling like Charlie Brown looking for the Great Pumpkin is this the week Flacco starts making the Ravens look wise for paying him.........Probably not!
I'm not a Brady hater, but "Brady taking a paycut"? C'mon, man. His current contract guarantees more money than any other single contract on the history of the league. Restructuring for the cap and adding dozens of millions to your guaranteed money is hardly taking a paycut. I'm not saying what he did was wrong because I'm all for players getting all the money they can, but let's stop pretending that he took a paycut when in actuality it was a raise.
I'm talking about when he took a pay cut back in 2007 to bring Moss in. I am also referencing a pay cut/restructure that he took when they brought in several other players a few years back too. Would Flacco do that? No. Otherwise, he would've took less so he could keep Boldin here. I'm not saying Boldin's the answer, but he could have helped us with the middle of the field stuff at least
He wants respect through money... sorry, but if you want respect, then take less money in order to help the team, and win some dang games in the regular season to make people respect your work. I'm sorry, but I just don't think Flacco is the brightest gem in the world.
