Re: This team won't have a chance at competing if we pay Flacco big money
It seems to me as though Flacco and his agent rolled the dice a bit by not coming to an agreement with what the Ravens offered some months ago. Their thinking was probably that a good year by Flacco would give them even more leverage against the front office in addition to what they already had. And that wasn't necessarily a bad strategy on their part.
But, if that is indeed true, there was an element of risk that if Joe had an inconsistent year his value might go down.
And to this point, you'd certainly have to say Joe has not achieved the hoped-for consistency. So unless he plays lights-out in the next few games, you have to wonder what the Ravens' thinking will be.
FWIW, I don't think Joe is going anywhere. But I'm only 98% certain of that now versus 100% a few weeks ago.

Am I the only one who finds it funny that we're all saying that Flacco isn't good enough to carry a team that has glaring deficiencies at O-line, Wide Receiver and OC? I mean these are basic things that all teams need to run a offense even remotely successfully on an consistent basis lol.

Yes you are. Because what we have are not "glaring deficiencies". We just have come to the realization that if we are keeping an immobile statue of a quarterback who turns the ball over regularly and stares down his primary receiver we are going to need upgrades. Better quarterbacks could win with what we have had over the past 4 plus seasons.

Re: This team won't have a chance at competing if we pay Flacco big money
An LT who can't handle Speed Rushers (in a time where most teams have one or two)
3 different starters at LG
An older C whose most assuredly gone next year
A struggling (but promising) RT
Receivers that struggle to gain separation
A OC who (FACT) refused to make in-game adjustments
^^^^^All the above are problems that everyone on the board has acknowledge as true but yet we don't have any glaring deficiencies?
