The Ravens Support Flacco

[JoeCool#5]

Yeah INTs kill QB ratings but today he looked like is coming around. There will always be bumps in the road, but the kid shows promising signs for the future (completing 10+ in a row), especially if he can rely on a SOLID ground attack like we saw today at Miami.

[quote name='Moderator9' post='77662' date='Oct 19 2008, 05:40 PM']just a side note. after today, flacco's completion percentage is 64.1%. i don't know where he'll stand amoung other QBs.....but a number like that would have been in the top 10 in the NFL looking at last weeks stats. the interceptions are what kills his QB rating[/quote]

That and the lack of TD's to balance it out.

Yeah, before this game, their ground attack was 6th in the NFL...heck, if we can do that to a top 10 rushing defense, I tihnk the road to Flacco's success will be that much easier.

this game shows flacco is not a head case the loss to the colts is way behind him now he stays confident in himself and keeps moving forward one play at a time he is the future of the ravens

He should have nailed that TD to Heap. Such a shame.

I still don't want to get all high and mighty on Flacco. He is our starting quarterback, but he still has a way to go to show he is the future of the team. I hope he does though, I really like this kid.

I agree. I want him to start and I think he will continue to improve but I think its early to be giving him nicknames and pumping him up and such.

That has been a major lack in recent QB's weve been trying to settle in (Boller, Grbac reportedly cried on the sidelines after a pick), and something which im def. excited to see. I gotta admit i before thought taking Flacco early in the draft was like, "what?" but I guess OZ found out how to draft a QB. I mean at first i really wanted Matt Ryan to come to the Ravens, but seeing that Flacco has the most upside from, imo, all the quarterbacks in this draft class, i can't help but support him.
