I've been told numerous times on this board that he isn't even a top 12 QB. Where are all of those people at now? Is he still not very good? Shaping up to be a Super Bowl MVP if the Ravens win.

At midseason there were a lot of questions about whether he was even the right QB for Baltimore.

Playing 110% in the playoffs and sucking every other week in the reg season doesn't make you an elite QB

Doug Williams played great in the SB too you know

Being in the top 12 doesn't exactly make you elite. I never used the word elite. At this point if you can't admit he's a top 10 QB then you aren't very bright.

Pretty sure he wasn't bad in every single week in the regular season. Pus, it is irrelevant. He plays good enough to get in post season and then wins. The only thing that matters is winning in the playoffs.

I'll say he's top 10 but probably #10

Ah I remember the Flacco vs Freeman debate a few years ago... Majority sided with Freeman

Bump for Flacco throwing his third TD pass of the first half. Super Bowl MVP.

Lulz

You said he was a top 6 or 7 QB. And mark Sanchez wins in the playoffs. Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl. Mark rypien was a Super Bowl MVP.

Said top 8. He is a top 8 QB in the league. So "lulz".

Well he did have 5 weeks of a QB rating 70 or lower and 7 with QB rating of 80 or lower, only 6 weeks of a QB rating over 100. Good but not "elite" by any means...


Just for comparison Schaub had 7 weeks of a QB rating over 100 and 7 weeks under 80 with 4 under 70.

The word "elite" is way overused and has no meaning anymore. However, Flacco is definitely a top 8 QB in the NFL.

What's funny is because of this SB run he's gonna want big time money this offseason and Baltimore will give it to him.

Then next year he'll go back to being an above average QB getting paid like he's top 5

I don't know that he is worth 20 million a year or not. That is for the Ravens to decide. I will say that there is no way I would let him go if I was the Ravens. He is the only QB in the NFL to make the postseason in his first five seasons and now he's 30 minutes from winning a Super Bowl. I don't care what he does in the regular season if he is going to continue to do this in the post season. For anyone who says it is the defense I guess we will find out next year if that's true.
