Even if you want to just count the playoff games when Flacco particularly played well, he still has more than them combined.

Guys don’t wanna hear that stuff Sword. I’ll be honest. I’ll be glad when Joe’s gone so the haters have to find something else to complain about.

Matt Ryan has four playoff wins total, not excluding any he didn’t play particularly well in. Stafford, Garapolo and Carr have a combined.........0.

The first three Ravens playoff wins, Joe Flacco didn’t do much. He just didn’t blow the game. Game where he actually played well and they won:

10’ KC
12’ Ind
12’ Den
12’ Ne
12’ SF
14’ Pitt.

Apart from Rogers, none of those guys have proven anything special in the NFL

Brady isn't the main breadwinner in his family... You can bet if he wasn't married to an international Supermodel (not jealous, nuh uh) who's raking it in, he'd be paid his true value.

Aren't the Pats a major client of one of his businesses too? Pretty sure there's some kind of cap manipulation going on there.

Money will motivate anybody especially someone that wanted a big family.

He also has his own endorsements and has been in movies

Maybe, but anyone who needs money to make them play well in the Playoffs (of any sport), doesn't make it as a pro in the first place, so I'd question that Joe was just playing well (and by 'well' I mean the joint greatest playoff performance of all time with some guy called Montana...) just because he was pissed off that the FO hadn't accepted his contract negotiations 6 months prior.

Agree with you on Brady though- that guy does plenty alright for himself. Besides, strawberry's can be expensive so that's one overhead he doesn't need to worry about!

I mean.. Joe went to Delaware and didn't really turn any heads until his final year there so we see the trend.. being he has elevated his play when needed to attain reward. With Delaware it was going pro and with us it was getting that contract.

In Delaware I think it was more just comfort in their offence. He only played 2 seasons as starter there so it's very difficult to draw any conclusions.

In the playoffs it was more that they'd finally put the right O line in with Bryant McKinnie at LT and moving Oher to RT where he was much more comfortable/less of a liability and started using Boldin properly- in the slot, where he's best. Far from showing Flacco needs money as a motivation, I think it's conclusive proof that put some good (and not great, let it not be forgotten- few players on O on that run were amongst the league's best, and those that were (Yanda) were on the line) pieces around him and see how good he can be.

We never did that again and spent the next offseason (and subsequent 4...), building the D instead of trying to get a balanced team.
