According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Flacco's new contract with the Ravens will make him the highest-paid player in NFL history:

To be precise, Joe Flacco's deal with Ravens will clock in at six years and $120.6 million, a bit more than Drew Brees' in almost every way.

repeat or give it back















:0003

Yes, there will be a repeat.

Can you say dynasty? :0003

According to some sources, Joe Flacco's cap number for 2013 could be as low as $7M. Even if these reports are inaccurate, it will almost certainly be lower than $10M. This is significantly lower than the $14.9M the non-exclusive franchise tag would have incurred. The Ravens will now be able to put together their roster for 2013 with much more room for potential cap casualties and free agents. The long-term deal is great news for the Ravens and for us fans.

This kind of thinking is comical.

Realistic. I don't think the Ravens will even make the playoffs next year...and it's only gonna get worse as the years pass and his # against the cap grows.

As a fan, yes, you're happy you keep your guy. But the price isn't worth it in the long run.

Great, he's made the playoffs every year. He's also lost every big game in those playoffs until this year. Paying Flacco 120mil for his playoff run is like in baseball when a pitcher gets hot 1 season, then scores it rich in the offseason.

If you think he's a top 5 quarterback, you're fucking high.

19th in completion %
12th in QBR
14th in yards

Joe Flacco is what he is, simply just average Joe. A top 5 quarterback is an elite quarterback who can make everyone around him and the team better....I don't think if you put Flacco in a Jags uniform, a team like the Jaguars get any better.

What are you talking about? He just beat Luck, Manning and Brady and out played all three, out played Brady 3rd time in a row and 2 were in Brady's house. He's never missed a start in 5 years. He's won more regular season games than any other QB in the NFL last 5 years. He's won more playoff games than any other NFL QB last 5 years. He's the ONLY QB that has been to the playoffs the last 5 years. Been to 3 AFCC games in 5 years. Has the best playoff record of any QB in the history of the NFL, and he doesn't win big games?? He's got records out the ass, more than any other QB for his first 5 years in the history of the game.

I'll give you the elite part but he's a franchise QB and he's still young. NO QB EVER has accomplished what he has in his 1st 5 years. NONE! EVER!

He's a tough muthafucker that plays every single game and gets more WINS than any other QB since he's been in the league. What in THEE FUCK DO YOU WANT HIM TO DO?

The money Brady, Manning, Manning, and Ben got didn't sacrifice their teams, why do you think Flacco's money will hurt the Ravens? It won't. Good players get good money. You think Ozzie Newsome is an idiot? Ha! he's one of the best.

W T F are you even talking about?

Discussion over because there's a lot more but you can't even cover that.
