Drew026 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Flacco is still no where near a tier 1 QB in the NFL. Severe overthrow/duck to Heap, underthrows Mason by 3-4 yards, not to mention finding any consistency in the rest of the 2nd half. Just an overall meltdown.

Ramius Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Agreed. With the ravens out, the only thing left to root for is a meteorite hitting the stadium during the AFC Championship and knocking out both pieces of **** teams playing in it.

Playoff Bound Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 At this point I don't care who represents the AFC as long as its not New England. Lets face it, love them or hate them, Pittsburgh knows how to win the big games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Flacco was not impressive, but I've always thought he was a 2d tier QB at best so I wasn't surprised. Of course, his WRs were pathetic so that didn't help. I'm not sure why Boldin even bothered to show up. I thought Baltimore got hosed on that punt return penalty. Looked to me like the Steeler guy knew he wouldn't get him so he took a charge from his blocker NBA style to draw a flag. The Ravens need work in the secondary; they were very suspect on the deep balls and gave up a number of 3d and longs. But wow...fun game. I hope they are all that good. p.s. I guess the Steelers did ok in the last two drafts, huh? They had first and second year guys all over the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillsForever Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Flacco didn't play well but I put this game on the coaching staff and how they game planned for the Steelers. Everyone knows this year, you can move the ball EASILY against the Steelers defense by spreading them out with 4 and 5 wr sets and throwing down field. They are suspect at the CB position. Setting up the run in the 2nd half with the passing game and passing a lot. I don't even recall a 4 wr set that they used in this game. You can't win against the Steelers with the power running game and dinking and dunking with Ray Rice. It reflects in the loss and the statistics.

zow2 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Looks like Flacco and Matty ice are not playing BIG today. Got a little ways to go to be compared to Ben, Brady, Peyton, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalScotts Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 this is the kind of game you change quarterbacks over going forward. Would not shock me if they brought in mcnabb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not shock me if they brought in mcnabb Are you really saying it would be a good move to bring in McNabb to compete with Flacco? LOL! Flacco wasn't the main issue with this game. With the flawed gameplan that was installed, WR's like Bouldain and Houzmanzada made crucial mistakes, with Bouldains in what should have been a sure touchdown. Rice's fumble was also very costly which really turned the momentum to the Steelers. Edited January 16, 2011 by BuffaloBillsForever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 this is the kind of game you change quarterbacks over going forward. Would not shock me if they brought in mcnabb He's still very young, but I agree, they may need a change there. That 3rd quarter was just brutal... the look on RayRay's face on the sidelines said it all, he knew they were screwed without a real QB... another golden opportunity pissed away.

Sisyphean Bills Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 The Ravens WRs dropped balls that hit them in the hands. Ray Rice was mostly useless in protection and couldn't find a hole with a flashing arrow leading the way. Steelers players stepped up and made simply amazing plays. The game plan of going with 13 personnel and trying to blow back the Steelers was a totally uninspired Cam Cameronism. The officiating suffered, ahem, a little home cooking. And, yes, Joe Flacco threw some bad balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsForever Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Yeah. You can't gameplan around running the ball against the Steelers and using power formations. 4-5 wrs, shotgun and throw, throw, throw. If the Jets win against the Pats, I see them losing to the Steelers. If the Pats beat the Jets, pats will beat the Steelers because of their spread offense. Steelers have been shown to be weak in defending this style of offense all year. Edited January 16, 2011 by BuffaloBillsForever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 DVR'd the game…was gonna watch it after the Packers-Falcons. I thought that maybe Flacco was poised to take the next step today based on last week. Kansas City really roughed him up and was attacking him before Flacco raised his game and played a great 2nd half last week. He actually made plays with his feet and head, ad-libbing nicely several times. I thought the biggest difference by far between Baltimore and Kansas City was that Flacco was SO much better than Matt Cassel. I'm surprised to hear that he played so poorly today. I did hear that Flacco's receivers dropped a bunch of passes today, that the gameplan sucked, that there was a Ray Rice fumble, a horrible call on a punt return, and that the Ravens defense was ordinary. If Flacco did indeed suck, it's a miracle that the Ravens were even close in that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Obviously you didn't watch the Buffalo game and many other games vs the steelers this year. I've actually seen every bills game this year and just about every steelers game over the last 5 years since I live in Pittsburgh. In fact I was at the steelers/pats game. Other teams can't do what the pats do to the steelers. if they could, then the steelers wouldn't win 12 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
