    Joe Flacco Could Set A Record Sunday

    I was watching Around The Horn this afternoon and Bill Plaschke stated that Eli Manning tied a record for road playoff victories with four. I looked up the record because I couldn't believe that to be right, but sure enough, it is.

    QBs with most road playoff victories, career (all with four):

    Len Dawson
    Jake Delhomme
    Joe Flacco
    Eli Manning
    Mark Sanchez
    Roger Staubach

    Note: Super Bowl victories are considered "neutral site" victories, not road wins.

    So, with a victory Sunday, Flacco will either hold the record alone or be tied with Eli Manning (if the NY Giants defeat the San Francisco 49ers). Sure, it's not a big deal record but it is remarkable that in all the years of the NFL, the record is four.

    Two quarterbacks that don't get enough credit for the role they play in their teams' success.

    THIS. It's amazing the amount of energy people (myself included) spend perusing this forum and posting without really stepping back and looking at the situation we're in. People would kill for our success, QB, coach, D, etc. We're so fortunate yet we complain about not being dominant enough in advancing to the AFC Championship. But we're a passionate breed around here. Hence the 9-0 at home this year. No coincidence IMO.

    And he could do it his first 4 years coming out of Division II football.

    But it will mean nothing, just like every other thing he has accomplished in his first 4 years.

    Not to nitpick but it was Division I-AA, not Division II, but yeah I get your point.

    The national media bashing of Flacco is out of control this week. Strange to say, but I'm almost more excited by the prospect of them having to eat their words than the Ravens going to the Super Bowl.

    I'm with you. I'm usualy pretty casual about the media, but they are just killing him this week. If it's about his comment, then they are biggest group of women with no sense of humor ever!

    That record is probably not on the top of his list but I sure as hell hope he gets it, because it would mean Festivus Maximus!
