Some context: Since Flacco is entering the last year of his contract, his agent said that he is seeking "top-five" money. So it was no surprise when the former Delaware star was asked if he considered himself a top-five QB.
"Without a doubt," he said via SportsRadioInterviews.com. "What do you expect me to say? ... I assume everybody thinks they're a top-5 quarterback. I mean, I think I'm the best. I don't think I'm top five, I think I'm the best. I don't think I'd be very successful at my job if I didn't feel that way. I mean, come on? That's not really too tough of a question. But that doesn't mean that things are gonna work out that way. It just means that that's the way it is, that's the way I feel it is, and that's the way I feel it should be."

Pretty much a non-story. He said all the right things & explained himself too. Who wouldn't say that? Well-coached by his agent.

If what's his name didn't drop that surefire TD late in the Pats game, Joe could even be a Super Bowl winning QB. But it was his fault, I mean, hitting the receiver right in the hands. Silly Joe.

His W-L record is stellar. Now he needs a few AFCCG and SB W's to make it all legit. SB wins are really the only QB stat that seems to matter.

Also bad facial hair stats. Those are important for him.

Barely.
#25 in completion percentage
#10 in attempts
#12 in yards
#19 in YPG
#13 in TD's
#15 in fewest INT's
#18 in QB rating (80.9)
Basically, he's Andy Dalton. What does Andy Dalton make?

Yes, and then he went to the University of Southern Jersey and played football there.
