Flacco is a winner. I don't think there is another QB that has as many regular or post season wins since he as been a starter.

Notonly did they not throw it as much but Cameron's scheme didn't emphasize high % throws. He emphasized getting yards in chunks which explains Flacco's poor comp% throughout his career IMO *not this year's PO)

His playoff success is probably overrated because of Baltimore's defense, but last week kind of destroyed that argument.

Yeah but Baltimore's defense has played extremely well throughout his playoff career. I mean he won a playoff game where he threw for 34 yards.
Last week against Denver was the first time he really had to go win a game. I suppose you could say he did that had it not been for the drop/missed FG last year against NE. Just tempering the FlaccoBJ a bit.

Flacco starts playing well after the Ravens dump a overrated, stupid offensive coordinator and a new one gets adjusted in the new role. What a coincidence.
Cam Cameron sucked. |

To me "clutch" and "elite" are the same thing.
If you can be depended on to make the plays that win games and you consistently do then you're "elite." That definition works for K, QB, WR, or any defensive player. When you're put in the position to make a play than can win the game how often do you? That decides who's "elite."

The Broncos have a comparable pass rush to anyone in the league. They have 2 elite rush ends. People just keep wanting to change the criteria. Nevermind that he's lead his team back in 2 straight playoff games on the road against really good QBs. Now it's a "he didn't face a pass rush" Get lost with this nonsense. He's as clutch as any QB in this league.

Its not about how many yards you throw. Teams pass so much in todays game, its dumb to judge a guy based on yards. Lots of guys throw for yards. Flacco is a guy who just was able to slowly develop over time. His first 3 years in the playoffs he was viewed as an underachiever. Hes grown into a leader and elite playmaker.

This year, he outplayed Luck, Peyton, and Brady in the playoffs on his way to the Super Bowl. Last year, he outplayed Brady and had a strong performance against the Texans' 3rd-ranked passing defense in the playoffs. All the while, people like you have called him a soft system game-manager who won't win anything. REAL overrated.

Last week really forced me to round the corner in my views on the unibrowed one, its like it really all started to come together for him this last month.
Consider my take on him thoroughly revised. |
