    Both played vs weak passing defenses, both played pretty similar. Eli gets all the praise when he had 1 more TD (see: Hail mary at the end of half) and Joe gets the "well the defense was defending the run" yada yada and because of 1 less TD (see: Lee Evans dropping ball).

    GIVE UP THE HATE.

    I don't see any hate.

    so what are you trying to prove right now? that he is just as good as Eli? that Eli isn't that good? I don't even understand what you are doing, besides getting butthurt that we think your boy is average.

    yea obv, but i still get his comparison. i really didn't hear much when ryan had whatever shitty stats he ended up with this year. or the years past. romo def gets goated with dallas failures. don't hear to much about rivers when they fall short, its always norvs fault(but obv it is just norvs fault).

    nobody is gonna even level and say flacco is a top 8 qb. id put him comfortable around 9-13.

    theres brees rodgers brady and well say peyton manning assuming he comes back as good as he was

    then id say rivers, stafford big ben eli

    after that, i think you can argue between cam, vick, cutler flacco, schaub, romo, and im prob taking flacco over schaub vick cutler and romo(and if youve seen my posts about romo i always defend him and say hes a great qb).

    next drop off im putting alex smith, bradford, dalton, and so forth and so on

    Eli- gets praise for his performance
    Joe- does not get praise for his performance.

    umm, it matters when the specific argument is that Flacco is an average QB, and that you think he is better because of his team's success. we are saying that his team's success would be even greater if they had better than an average QB. how is that hard to follow?

    I said IF i agreed with you that flacco was average, theyd still be better of than any other team in the NFL. But I don't I think hes slightly above average. how hard is it to follow acknowledge that if every single team fixed something that isn't a strength they would be better?

    I mean, what if you put sanchize or henne or orton on the ravens? how much worse are they gonna be? i doubt much worse because its the same situation, they ask flacco to give ray rice the ball and not fuck up too much and theyll be in it vs any team. That doesn't mean he is as bad as sanchize or worse than romo, its just how the ravens ball.

    either way i seriously can't argue anymore, im sick as shit and i need to sleep. sending ur monies now you lucky bastard

    @jroth hmm, rodgers has worse completion %, less yards, but has a better WPA?(obv rodgers is gonna contribute to more wins, but im just saying)

  7. My buddy's gf had a catch with him on the beach in Avalon this summer. I witnessed it. She caught EVERY ball. Don't you think a top tier or even above average QB shouldn't have a 5'6 125 lbs jewish broad catch lasers from 25 yds out?

    What else did she catch from him?

    Oh yeah, and Sean needs to calm down. Everywhere I read, people are saying Flacco had a good game, but his cocky response after the game, and the fact that his team lost, takes away from it.

    yea, but one was winning pretty much all game and the other was losing... also why flacco in no way outplayed tom brady.
  14. it's funny b/c flacco in the AFC is an average to slightly above average qb. flacco in the NFC would maybe start for 6 teams.

    come on, that's a ridiculous point. Of course teams wouldn't give up a hopeful future franchise qb, even if Flacco is better right now. It's not even in terms of rankings. Is Peyton Manning better than Big Ben? Yes. Would Pittsburgh get rid of Big Ben right now for Manning? No. What a stupid ass point you're trying to make.

    Some NFC QBs he's comparable to or better than: Bradford, Jackson, Kolb, Smith, Freeman, Newton, Ryan, Ponder, Culter, Sexy Rexy, Romo, Vick.
     
  16. People take football too seriously.

    Ah who the fuck am I kidding; I was the same way with the Saints and LSU this year :(

    *edit* Except I was screaming for Gregg Williams, and the Lee/Jefferson QB tandem to get 'cut'. Thankfully, I got my wish and all three are gone.

    I'd take all the bolded before flacco any day. Smith is the closest, but takes care of the ball. Romo, Newton, Vick, Ryan is pretty laughable though. All i was saying is overall he is an average to slightly below average qb and it's crazy how much better overall the qbs are in the NFC. Not sure what's so stupid about that. Your hypothetical is idiotic in its own right. What is the point you are trying to make?

    edit: just noticed you are from baltimore...explains a lot.

    i didn't say he was better than them, i said he is comparable to them.

    Smith takes care of the ball? This year maybe. Coming into this season he had more INTs than TDs. If he can keep it up it's still arguable between them. I agree he had a solid year, but that's it. 1 solid year. I'm sure you were riding Freeman after last year, like you are Smith right now.

    Flacco hasn't had a bad year his entire career. He's just solid. He's played every game of every season and has always thrown more TDs than INTs. I'll take that over most of the other guys in the league. I'm mean, Eli had 30 turnovers last year, now he's Elite.

    I know Flacco has plenty to improve upon. Pocket presence. Ball security. Going through his progressions. But he doesn't deserve the criticism he gets, mostly because he's not the face of the franchise until Lewis and Reed retire, and probably Suggs and Ngata. Hell, he may never be, which is why he's looked at like he is. He lost it for Ray Lewis' team. I'm sure that's the perception after every loss.

    looooooool at comparing Eli's playoff performances to Joe fucko

    Eli is 7-2 in his playoff career with 5 road wins and 2 super bowl appearances.
    Fucko is 4-4 or some shit (i think) with 0 super bowl appearances and notable duds in the NFC championship last year and other losses. He fucking sucks, he gets sacked way too much and he's just not that good. GET OFF HIS DICK!!!!!

    If you look at the stat lines from those games they are almost identical. I was showing the fact that Eli gets praised for his performance and Joe gets given excuses as to why he performed that way (defense was trying to stop RR, terrible pass Defense...although the packers pass defense is pretty comparable to the Pats pass De).

    Eli is a career 58% passer with 185 TDs to 129 INTs, he has a career 82.1 passer rating and has only finished >90 passer rating twice in his career ('09 and this year)...(I know passer rating is flawed but christ). Everyone is singing his praises for this year he has had, same with Smith, same with Freeman last year. He is talked about as HOF by all of you bc he lucksacked a SB. And has played at an "elite" level ....FOR ONE FUCKING YEAR (his 8th?)

    Joe is a career 60.8% passer with 80 TDs and 46 INTs, he has a career 86 passer rating and has only finished > 90 once.

    All I've ever said is he is not Elite/Great but is def above average, that was his 4th year and he's played in 8 playoff games.

    And get a new line the "get off his dick" is pretty hilarious for a 15 year old, you have brought nothing to the argument except Eli's career playoff stats. We are having a debate, one that I feel strongly about, don't open the pats ravens thread if you don't feel like debating it.
