I wouldn't be so sure...he went 4-1 with the Browns last season down the stretch and is the main reason they made the playoffs. Hopefully AR is not injury prone and last season was a fluke!

Probably true. Although that is likely the case with 90% of backups nowadays. Hell, a sizeable number of STARTING qb's don't have a a realistic chance of leading their teams to the playoffs.

I would like to see management reach out to the local baseball team and get someone to teach AR how to slide. Then make him practice doing it and drilling into his head that in the NFL, if you don't slide you'll have a short career.

When Flacco was in his prime with the Ravens, he had terrible pocket presence ...... that may have improved in his latter years, as I haven't watched much of his play since then.


*********************************


One other thing that I do remember Flacco for was an infamous sack that he took when he played for the Jets. When I was in 1st grade, I saw Bob Griese suffer a 29-yard sack against the Cowboys in Super Bowl VI. In 2020, I saw Flacco suffer an almost identical sack ...... this time, it was for 28 yards. Like Griese back on that Sunday afternoon 52 years ago, Flacco just kept turning and turning until he was finally brought down by the Dolphins' defensive pursuers. On Griese's sack, the referee briefly got in his way, which may have slightly contributed to the sack.

Looks like something Wentz would have done.

Wentz would have tried to throw it and fumbled.
