    You've made it clear what you're stated purpose is here.

    #joegottago, right?

    The only question is what old poster did you use to be? Because I doubt you are brand new. Your posts are way too similar to the other goof balls around here.

Because of that they're forced to bring in veterans towards the end of their careers.
    First, you have to WANT to develop skill position players. As in PRIORITIZE it. If they didn't prioritize the defense so much they could do that. That was THEIR choice. They made it.

Game changing receivers are far and few inbetween. If you have to rely on a top 3 WR to make your franchise QB a competent player than maybe you don't have the right QB in the first place?

    Is Deandre Hopkins suddenly going to make Joe Flacco throw a deep pass to Mike Wallace more accurately? Is Deandre Hopkins going to make Joe Flacco step into a pass on 3rd down and not deliver the ball in the dirt?

    Deandre Hopkins didn't stop Tom Savage from throwing a weak 56% completion percentage. Didn't stop Tom Savage from throwing more interceptions than TDs or finishing 52nd in QB rating. But look what happened to the Texans offense as soon as they replaced a horrible Quarterback with a competent rookie. Suddenly, everything changed. Hmmm, I wonder why??

    Put any top 10 QB in this offense and we're in the playoffs with home field advantage right now. Put Alex Smith in this offense and we're entering this weekend coming off a bye week ready to wreak havoc at M&T Bank stadium. Joe holds us back and whether you realize it or not it's the REAL reason we're all pissed at our team right now.

    What you don't understand is that a playmaker like Hopkins helps a QB relax, because he doesn't have to make a perfect throw. It allows him to play loose and that helps him to get into a better rhythm. When you watch the Patriots play, they throw a lot of short passes to warm Brady up and get him into a rhythm. When that offense gets into a funk, they throw to Gronkowski, no matter who or how many are on him and it gives the offense another jump start.

    When your offense does absolutely nothing unless you make pinpoint accurate throws, you play tight.

    Yes. Last off-season (and the year before that) I said the reason we lost was because we didn’t build an offense. I expected them to invest in offense. They didn’t and I was mad. Once I calmed down I hoped that the plan they went with, but didn’t agree with, would work because as a fan I always hope that we win regardless of whether I agreed with the process. I will do the same this year regardless of whether they do what I hope they should. Seems pretty clear that they need to build an offense as that is clearly what is wrong with this team. But if they go in a different direction, while being initially pissed off (like last off season), I will eventually calm down and just hope for the best. If they fail again I will be back beating my drum. Fact is nothing you or I say actually makes a difference. We’re just here to hope.

He did not throw a ball in practice until the week leading up to the first game against Cincy.
    Dunno if that's what happened, but I can't think of anything that contradicts this theory.

    If you can develop offensive skill players then the money committed to the QB position isn't a real issue. When you can't, you don't have the funds to pay for a top FA WR and you're stuck digging through the bargain bin.

    The Ravens got caught with their pants down after the 2012 season. They were $1M apart in contract negotiations before the season and couldn't get the deal done. Joe goes on that magical 4 game run and now all of a sudden he has all the leverage and you're backing up the Brinks truck. At that point there needs to be a change in the way you draft IMO. But Harbaugh is so damn stubborn and wants to win his way. Which we've seen over the past few years that his way isn't working.
    Well it's a combination of things. Sure it hasn't helped that there has been misses in the draft from Perriman to Williams and onwards down but normally you'd go out and fix those mistakes via FA. We can't. Flacco prevents this.

    Flacco also isn't an elite QB capable of playing without top flight players on offense. So the question sort of becomes which is more plausible to do should we try to find a top flight WR. Top flight TE. Top oline. All these players the flacco fluffers say we need in order to be successful. While under the confines of paying Flacco 30 million.

    Or do we just find our an elite QB who doesn't need those things. For me the answer is kind of simple the margin of error is too small with Flacco and his contract to allow us to do those things. Maybe if he was under a contract similar to McCown who actually outplayed Joe I would say sure lets get some play makers in.

    For those who say well a bunch of other teams do it why can't we. I guess the answer is they don't. Most teams with non-elite QB's getting paid 15-20 plus million dollars don't make the playoffs. The Brady's do. The Rodgers do. The Steelers do.

    Did Oakland make the playoffs? Did SEA? Did the Cardinals? The Bengals? The Chargers? The Redskins? It's hard to do. It's much easier to make the playoffs with a QB on their rookie deal because even if they are not elite at least they aren't get paid like one and you have the dollars to correct other areas. We have the worst of both worlds. In fact Flacco wasn't just not elite he was statistically one the worst starters in the NFL but paid the 2nd most.

    That is sustainable. You can invent whatever reasons you want. We need elite playmakers. We need an elite RT. We need better TE's. The reality if we are paying Joe like a franchise qb then he needs to play one. If he can't we can find someone else a hell of alot cheaper

    Funny how those elite QBs also tend to have elite weapons.

    Unless you want to tell me which UDFA wr has turned into a star with Rodgers?
