Joe Flacco is Out of His Mind

By • on February 21, 2012

. Joe Flacco wants top five quarterback money. That’s some funny stuff. His agent is quoted as saying ”If the game is about wins and losses, he has to be in the top five”. Yes, Mr. Linta, this game is about wins and losses. Most games are. Unfortunately for the agent that is trying to break the Ravens back, his client doesn’t play golf or tennis. . Certainly an individual has an impact on a team, and I agree that quarterbacks more so than any other position. That is why they get paid a premium. Whatever contract Flacco gets is going to be a nice haul. He will likely get more money than Ray Rice. If you asked most Ravens fans if they would rather have Joe Flacco or Ray Rice, you probably wouldn’t get too many people clamoring for number five. . Heck, if you asked people if they would rather have Peyton Manning or Flacco you would have more people looking to add a Hall of Famer QB in the twilight of his career. . You don’t have to even  bother to ask the defense which player is more valuable. They aren’t picking the player that sported a goofy mustache in the playoffs. . Flacco had a decent year throwing for 3610 yards and 20 INTs. He knocked off the Texans and put the Ravens in position to go to the Super Bowl by throwing for 306 yards against the Patriots. . Let’s not give him too much credit though. We all know the Ravens are built on defense and running the football. . There is simply no way Flacco deserves top five money. Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Matthew Stafford, Eli Manning. Not paying him more than those guys. . Philip Rivers, Ben Roethlisberger, Tony Romo, Cam Newton, and Matt Ryan. That’s ten QBs. Jay Cutler and Michael Vick. . Flacco is a top 15 guy, even though his passer rating ranked 18th, just behind Kevin Kolb. Sorry Flacco, but you and your agent need to stop sniffing paint fumes. . .
