If Schaub gets $15.5 Million per year for 4 year extension, Joe should be seeing some big time money soon
If Houston can give Schaub (who has never done anything) a 4 year extension worth $62 Million ($15.5 Million per year) Joe should be seeing some major money in his contract extension. If Brees is at the top end at $20 Million per year, and Schaub at the low end at $15.5 Joe should settle in nicely at about $17.5 Million.
That's about what the franchise tag next year would give him. The Ravens should bit the bullet and get it done. Joe is not going to get any cheaper anytime soon.

I think it will be like a 6 year 100 mil contract for Flacco. Could be a few mil over that, but I don't see it being any less.

I love how people keep saying that the Ravens should just bite the bullet and get it done, when nobody really has any idea on what's being said behind the scene. It's pretty obvious Joe wants to drive his price up this year by having a career year, and perhaps a SB. Joe will probably get close to what Brady gets if he gets to the SB this year.
The Ravens have probably already offered him around this price and maybe a little more, and Flacco is probably turning it down to honour his current contract to drive it up.

I haven't read anything in any of these posts that isn't just merely and opinion. However, some of us just express our opinions while some of the rest of us pontificate about how one opinion is better than another

Re: If Schaub gets $15.5 Million per year for 4 year extension, Joe should be seeing some big time money soon
I think its a valid opinion but personally I think its more just a matter of ironing out the upfront money (bonus) and structure than an issue of yearly salary. Even if the Ravens win the SB and Joe has a career year I seriously doubt he gets Tom Brady money. Hell Tom Brady did not get Brady money his first big deal. Not to mention the fact that the in the scenario you describe the Ravens could easily just franchise Joe at that point. If Joe is asking for Brady money long term than the Ravens have nothing to lose financially at least by giving him "almost" Brady money minus the long term commitment via the franchise tag.
More likely as I said before this is just a matter of dealing with things like the signing bonus, structure of the deal and those type of things. There really is no rush on either side to get it done. The Ravens said repeatedly they were getting it done with Rice and they did. I expect this is no different“A linebacker's job is to knock out running backs, to knock out receivers, to chase the football,”

Would love to see Flacco have a breakout year and earn that big contract. Either way he's gonna get paid well

I wouldn't be surprised if they already have a verbal deal in place.
