Re: Average Joe
Joe is a poor QB at best. The worst thing the Ravens can do is to re sign him to a long term contract. Joe has a extremely low football IQ.

Re: Average Joe
Disagree... Cam ran that bullshit 2WR/FB/TE antiquated 1970s offense that just doesnt work against today's NFL defense. I agree that Joe did suck but again, its the repeat of Cam doing absolutely nothing to help out Joe and the rest of the offense break out of their weekly lulls during the games. Where was the f---ing no huddle which helps Joe get into a rhythm??

Re: Average Joe
We don't have it because of Cam mostly, but I am not sure Joe is entirely blameless. There are a lot of routes that rely on timing, throwing it before the guy is open, and having the ball arrive in the one second the guy is open. Many times Joe is late getting rid of it and seems to need to see the guy open before he throws it (which is too late for a lot of completions). He also locks into guys almost pre-snap, especially quick outs, and just turns and throws it even if the guy is blanketed, even when he isn't remotely being rushed.
He had a bad night tonight, even if he was one of many (including the coaches). He was throwing the deep balls off his back foot for no reason and a lot of them looked like pure prayers, he was sailing some throws vs. stepping into them and throwing torso-height lasers like we know he can do. He doesn't normally look as uncomfortable as he did tonight, especially at home.
The defense is a bit more to "blame", then Cameron, then Joe, imo. We got outcoached and outplayed (effort). It was embarrassing.

Re: Average Joe
No doubt the defense could have done better. But Reed got the INT that, while it didn't hand the Ravens the game, put them in great position. Up seven, 11 minutes to go, even if you don't score, keep the opportunity to play field position by punting on 4th down. That's the same damn thing that happened courtesy of Polamalu in 2010. Which was also Flacco failing to be situationally aware.

Re: Average Joe
Until Cam is replaced by an OC who runs a modern offensive scheme PROPERLY & CONSISTENTLY, it is impossible to evaluate Flacco, our WRs, TEs, and even O-Line.
Hell, even our RBs aren't being used properly ALWAYS.
