No kiddingandy7171 wrote:More like Joe Succo.
He was one of my keepers for my fantasy team this season, and part of the reason I got clubbed like a baby seal yesterday 
He's got a load of receivers, but he's playing more like Jake Delhomme this season - he seemed to be confused about who was wearing the home and away jerseys yesterday. 
So judge him on what he does against the shitty teams of the leage, and not the good ones?BlueHen86 wrote:Not a great start to the season for Flacco, but the Ravens opened the season on the road with 2 games against tough opponents. The Jets have one of the better defenses in the NFL, not many QB's are going to look good against them.
Lets see what Flacco does next week against Cleveland.
Where did I say that you shouldn't look at his games against the better teams? Of course you should (he did win one by the way). But don't look at just two games and change his name to Joe Succo. If he puts up bad numbers against Cleveland I might start to get a little concerned.clenz wrote:So judge him on what he does against the shitty teams of the leage, and not the good ones?BlueHen86 wrote:Not a great start to the season for Flacco, but the Ravens opened the season on the road with 2 games against tough opponents.

I'll make no excuses for Joe's terrible performance yesterday. He sucked. But, you can't deny the playoff success he had as a true freshman NFL QB in '08 and last year. I think he did OK the one time he played in Iowa too.clenz wrote:So judge him on what he does against the shitty teams of the leage, and not the good ones?BlueHen86 wrote:Not a great start to the season for Flacco, but the Ravens opened the season on the road with 2 games against tough opponents.

I love Flacco, I was just making a joke about how we shouldn't put too much stock into how he played agasint the Jets and Ravens because they are good, but we should put stock in how he plays against one of teh 3 worst teams in the league.93henfan wrote:I'll make no excuses for Joe's terrible performance yesterday.

I doubt he forgot how to be an NFL quarterback. We're one eighth of the way through the season. Let's see how he does in the remaining seven eighths.
I dunno - luv the guy to pieces - but he just looks different this season, even though it's real early and there's a long way to go, just to the bye week. No confidence, no swagger, no laser-like focus down the field even while scrambling. I wonder if that hip injury he suffered (at Oakland, right?) last season is still hurting him...93henfan wrote:I'll make no excuses for Joe's terrible performance yesterday. He sucked.

I never said that, but if you want to put words in my mouth just so you can use an emoticon, have at it.clenz wrote:I love Flacco, I was just making a joke about how we shouldn't put too much stock into how he played agasint the Jets and Ravens because they are good, but we should put stock in how he plays against one of teh 3 worst teams in the league.93henfan wrote:

You're right - we've been ignoring Wild Cat alumni in the NFL for far too long - who should we be following/rooting for? Dan Kreider? Corey Graham?UNHWildCats wrote:are we writing Flacco's ticket to Canton based on one game vs Cleveland?
Yep...only judge him and what he does against shitty teams in the NFL...not how he plays against the good teamsUNHWildCats wrote:are we writing Flacco's ticket to Canton based on one game vs Cleveland?
The NFL season is barely 3 weeks old - and that's just 3 games that Flacco's had to throw to Boldin. If you really think he's not the real deal, then we'll just have to wait until later in the season and see how he's doing then. Not too many people are predicting Baltimore to not be a major force in the AFC and I haven't seen anything so far to doubt that few.clenz wrote:Yep...only judge him and what he does against shitty teams in the NFL...not how he plays against the good teamsUNHWildCats wrote:are we writing Flacco's ticket to Canton based on one game vs Cleveland?
While I'll agree it is too early to judge. I heard more than a few national commentators mentioning the Ravens as Super Bowl possibilities.GannonFan wrote:The NFL season is barely 3 weeks old - and that's just 3 games that Flacco's had to throw to Boldin.
