Re: I was at the game yesterday, my two cents
I really think there is a large portion of this fan base...that has only become a fan in recent years. The early/mid 00's are a long time ago at this point. I find it hard to believe anyone that was a fan of the team through the Billick years is eagerly awaiting the end of the Flacco era in Baltimore. I'm also not sure why so many seem to be convinced that whoever they go with post-Flacco is going to be as good or better than he is. I'd really say the odds of that, based on overall view of the NFL and of just the Ravens and their history, are slim that they'll transition right to someone "good".
I was around, I was in the stands watching Boller and Wright play. I remember what it was like. And I just don't see how anyone who was can be so eager to jump back into the QB carousel.

Re: I was at the game yesterday, my two cents
Thank you I've been saying this. They truly have forgotten how terrible Redmond Wrights Banks Boller Casey etc etc were. Plus add in the fact there are a lot of other jumping in soon too. Pit Nyg Sdg Arz Nor then add in all the teams that flop with the young ones they have drafted and add in the ones who just don't have one. not a ride I'm wanting to jump right on.

Re: I was at the game yesterday, my two cents
Smart post, Spider. I appreciate your perspective on Joe particularly.
I'm a bit defeated myself.
The team is hard to watch right now, but I do enjoy watching the youngsters for flashes and improvement trends.
Wish I could watch and enjoy Maclin going 5/60/1 or 6/90/0 every other game *sigh*"The Ravens are not taking Jimmy Smith at 26!" -- Me, the day before the 2011 Draft

Re: I was at the game yesterday, my two cents
Jets
Dolphins
Patriots*
San Fran
Arizona
Jax
Buffalo
Redskins*
Saints
Vikings
Chargers
Ravens
Steelers
All teams that could consider a First Round QB. I starred the Pats and Redskins because While I dont htink they need one, they havent committed to Cousins yet ( he could ask for 28-30 million ) and Pats are toying with Garrapalo *allegedly*Last edited by HbgPARavenfan; 10-03-2017 at 11:39 AM.

Re: I was at the game yesterday, my two cents
I think there's a difference between "get rid of Flacco" and "let's start trying to draft a replacement." Granted, I'm sure there are a lot of people blindly in the "get rid of Flacco camp," but I think it's reasonable to want to start thinking of the next QB. The sooner we start looking for a replacement, the sooner we're likely to find one worth building around. We're locked into Flacco being on the roster for 2018 and 2019. It'd be nice to have options come 2020.

Re: I was at the game yesterday, my two cents
Big difference between wanting to ‘get rid of Flacco’ and preparing to move on. Almost everyone whose looking at the possibility of having to move on would MUCH prefer if he would just start playing better. Getting on fire on finishing this season 10-6 is a much better scenario to everyone here than having a 5-11 season and looking a high draft pick. Fact is that if we do have a 5-11 season then it should be painfully obvious to everyone that its time move on from the Flacco/Harbaugh era.
