Joey Baggadonuts, ay....paisan, fugghedaboutit! yada yada yada...

[DeadlyDynasty]

That goofy-looking wop bastard has been a damn good QB since shitting the bed against Pittsburgh in the 2nd half of the 2010-11 Divisional Round Playoffs.

He went from being the Anti-clutch to Clutch last season--especially with that vastly important comeback win at Pittsburgh. He was huge in the AFCCG, only to be let down by his interior O-line (Wilfork), Ed Dickson (drops), Billy Cundiff (shank), and Lee Evans (AIDS).

Yes, it's important not to put too much stock into preseason games, but there were certain, undeniable improvements to his game last night. For starters, he's getting the ball out MUCH faster. Check out the Boldin TD for reference...goddamn:wow

His accuracy also looks good--especially from distance. I'd venture to say he easily has a Top 3 arm in this league...and with burners like Torrey Smith on the outside, that's invaluable.

Look for this guinea goomba to take the next step this season--into elite QB status. You heard it here first...

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

:lmao

[symple19]

Smatta witchoo, eh?

I think Flacco has been held back by playcalling as much as anything in his career so far. No OC has seen fit to put a game in his hands, so he's never really learned to take one over by himself.

I think they should open things up more, throw more on first down, and let him call more audibles

Agree about his arm, he throws as good a deep ball as just about anyone.

His playaction fake could also improve, especially when you have Rice behind you



The biggest question in my head about the Ravens, though, is that defense. Will it stay healthy, and when will we see the inevitable decline start to begin?

[DeadlyDynasty]

ayyyyyy...grab ya self some gabagool and mutzarella and watch Joey put on a show!

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

DD called it. Joey Baggadonuts looked sick.

Flacc:lol

derp

[DeadlyDynasty]

331 yds, 3 tds, 0 ints, 116.2 QB rating.

[vander]

he's got a fantastic team around him. Torrey Smith: sick. Boldin: Money. Ray Rice, Pierce, dat O line... top talent everywhere you look

all I remember already was how badly he missed Torrey Smith those times

You don't remember 3rd and long on their own goal line where he found Pitta in an incredibly tight window to convert and completely reverse field position?

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

I don't care how good the rest of his team is, that throw to Jacoby Jones to send the game to OT was one of the clutchest throws I've ever seen.

[vander]

as I remember it, he made that throw 5 or 6 seconds after the snap, easy to look clutch when you got that long to throw, there will almost always be a guy open after that long.

I got nothing against Flacco, I want to see him become an elite QB, but at this time, he is nowhere near it, he has an offense around him to make any other QB in the league jealous, and barely beat a proven playoff choker.

Agree.
He chucks up a hail mary that the defensive back completely chokes on and Flacco is supposed to get cred for this? Please. :lol
That final chuck also inflated his stats and QB rating massively. Which is not to say he was bad the rest of the game, he was good.

Last year he basically beat the Pattycakes with the final very good throw. Not his fault the receiver dropped the perfectly thrown pass.
Good? Yes. Elite? Incomplete. Lets see how he does next week.

[JamStone]

Seemed like he launched it as far as he could and the safety made one of the biggest defensive fuck-ups you could imagine for that time and situation. It wasn't not clutch. But clutch isn't exactly how I'd describe it.

[Bill_Brasky]

:lmao DD

O wait

[DeadlyDynasty]

det dago did it

[symple19]

Boom

[DeadlyDynasty]

Give the man his due...850+ yds, 8 TDs, and 0 ints in the playoffs so far--with two of those wins coming in Brady and Manning's backyards. The Ravens are in the SuperBowl because of--not in spite of--Joe Flacco.

[Fabbs]

Flacco now with most playoff road wins by QB in history. 6

Eli Manning with 5. (Manning still best percentage at 5-1. Flacco is 6-4).

[DeadlyDynasty]

Flacco now tied with Eli Manning for most playoff road wins in history.
and when he wins the SB in a couple weeks he'll have the same # of rings and playoff wins as Peyton

[Creepn]

This is the only take of all your shitty takes that actually came to fruition DD.

*clap clap*

[DeadlyDynasty]

SB Champion
SB MVP

One of the best postseasons by one player in NFL history

[benefactor]

Very impressive...especially with all the adversity he faced during the season. Cheers, Joey Baggadonuts.

:toast

[J.T.]

Give DeadlyDynasty a spur for this shit. You don't just predict an uncharacteristically epic championship run in preseason.

[Creepn]

Still wouldn't say he's elite tho. Flacco hung on for dear life only to be saved by a no call.

[Bill_Brasky]

Still wouldn't say he's elite tho. Flacco hung on for dear life only to be saved by a no call.

:lol Super Bowl MVP
:lol not elite

[Creepn]

Jacoby should've got MVP tbh.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Still wouldn't say he's elite tho. Flacco hung on for dear life only to be saved by a no call.

:lol Flacco had a historically good playoff run this year. 11 touchdowns, 0 interceptions, passer rating over 100 in every game, 2 wins on the road. His biggest issue during the playoffs was atrocious conservative play calling, and he also had to deal with a lot of drops from his receivers in the superbowl. The amount of running plays called in the 2nd half almost blew it, Flacco saying fuck it and audibling on 3rd down when Caldwell probably called another running play into the teeth of San Fran's D was a key play that won them the game. If you wanna say Flacco got saved by that call, fine, but his defense that gave up 23 2nd half points (30 if San Fran scored on that last drive) if what got saved. Flacco played well enough where he wasn't gonna get blame regardless of what happened on that drive.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Jacoby should've got MVP tbh.

He had a deep touchdown reception set up completely by Boldin drawing double coverage from the safety and a kickoff return that required one broken tackle and nothing else other than great speed because of how bad San Fran's coverage was. Outside of those two plays, he did absolutely nothing the rest of the game. He fumbled a punt which could have been costly and had no other receptions. You don't win superbowl MVP by making two plays that while big required nothing special and doing nothing else the rest of the game.

[Blake]

I got nothing against Flacco, I want to see him become an elite QB, but at this time, he is nowhere near it, he has an offense around him to make any other QB in the league jealous, and barely beat a proven playoff choker.

I got nothing against you, but your takes almost always suck.

[manufan10]

Jacoby should've got MVP tbh.

If anyone besides Flacco was going to win the MVP then it would have to have been Anquan Boldin. He played a great game.

[Clipper Nation]

The way Joey Elite throws his recievers open is amazing.... and he's clutch as fuck, too.... Caldwell needs to loosen the reins and let him throw some more, he's proven that he deserves it....

[AaronY]

Tbh while he did hav a mediocre game overall in 2011 against Pitt he was leading them on a potential game tying drive when houshmsndzadeh dropped an easy as fuck pass on 4th down too

He had a clutch drive in the 2009-10 season against Minnesota. He drove the Ravens down to get a touchdown like a couple of minutes left. Then Frank Walker allowed Favre to complete a deep ball which gave the Vikings a field goal. Then Flacco drove the Ravens back into field-goal range in less than a minute only to see Steve Hauschka miss the kick that ended up getting him cut. Flacco has another fourth-down drop against the Patriots that year. Joe's been clutch since he was a sophomore. He just couldn't sit on a lead.

[Clipper Nation]

STILL the greatest postseason run by a QB ever:

Fact is, if Lee Evans had just caught the fucking ball, Joe Bags would have two rings right now. Dude is money in the playoffs no matter what the haters say.

And if Raheem Moore didn't commit one of the biggest chokes in NFL history, Joe Sharona would have no rings and his legendary run would have been a divisional round exit that nobody would remember.

But history happened and we have a nice one hit wonder we can talk about 5 years after the fact :lol (he has 1 playoff win in those 5 years)

:lol As I always say: Raheem Moore didn't throw that interception in OT. Peyton was the real choker, as always.

Derek Carr wishes he was a "one-hit wonder" like January Joe Bags.
