Kevin Wilson Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I remember the Flacco situation vividly since my brother is a Ravens fan. It was a lose/lose situation for the team, as mentioned he just had an epic historical personal run to get the Ravens a Superbowl win. He didn't deserve that much money, everyone knew it, but not re-signing him would have hurt their momentum and would have been blasted by fans. Teams will always overpay for QBs, at least Flacco did something to earn it first unlike the likes of Flynn, Osweiler, and Cassel. What was a really bad idea was signing him to an extension last off-season. I completely get his fat contract after winning the Super Bowl, that's life. But they haven't drafted anyone the last few years to replace him, after 2017 they could have cut him with minimal dead money but now they will have him an extra year. Its not odd that he got the big money after his SB run, what's odd is the Ravens haven't really made an attempt to get his replacement so they keep over-paying for a now average QB. Its funny because since my brother is a Ravens fan and I am a Bills fan, he is annoyed how much cheaper it would have been for the Ravens to keep Tyrod two years ago and not have any dip in QB play.

Ryan Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 We won't draft any linemen or running backs and just try running Ty and some free agents behind our make-shift line again all year as Rodgers runs for his life. It worked last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Well, it's not like he can do anything to stay in shape at the moment, he's been laid up with ankle surgery for months and just started running again. It's not like his calories were going anywhere else in the mean time. Man's gotta eat his 5000 calories a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which, four years into his NFL career, is the one route that Patterson can actually run. Hell of a return guy, though. . .gonna miss that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, yes, they had a living legend at QB, but he was beyond washed up. Worst quarterback to ever win a Super Bowl. 9 TDs, 17 INTs. Only Bart Starr can match that.

Your want a reason that, say, the Colts suck? A good reason is that they've made Luck the highest paid QB is the League and had to get their O-line at Dollar General. Just look at Seattle. Not a coincidence they stopped being elite when they paid Russell Wilson $88m and his offensive line 50 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawful Metal Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Supposedly Romo wants to go to the Texans, but Jerry Jones doesn't want the Texans to steal Cowboys fans. So that's why he hasn't been released. Jerry would rather he go to Denver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it wrong that I think it's funny that the Raiders would rather attempt to coax Lynch out of retirement than sign Adrian Peterson? I mean, I'm going to think that anyway. . .I'm just wondering.
