Re: NFL Off Topic 2012
So Joe Flacco believes he's the best QB in the league....
Aaron Rodgers. Tom Brady. Eli and Peyton Manning. Drew Brees. Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco and his agent believe he's right there with the elite class of NFL quarterbacks.
Flacco's agent, Joe Linta, created a stir in February when he said Flacco should be considered a top-five quarterback based on wins and losses.
Flacco took it one step further Tuesday, telling WNST 1570 in Baltimore on Tuesday that he believes he's the "best" quarterback in the NFL.
"I assume everybody thinks they're a top-five quarterback," Flacco said when asked where he thinks he ranks among NFL quarterbacks. "I mean, I think I'm the best. I don't think I'm top five, I think I'm the best. I don't think I'd be very successful at my job if I didn't feel that way. I mean, c'mon? That's not really too tough of a question.
"That doesn't mean that things are going to work out that way. It just means that's the way it is -- that's the way I feel that it is and that's the way I feel it should be."
Brees, Rodgers and Eli Manning have won the last three Super Bowls, while Brady and Peyton Manning both own multiple NFL MVP awards.
Flacco's numbers dipped slightly in 2011, with his completion percentage, passing yards and touchdowns all taking a hit as he threw two more interceptions than he did in 2010. However, the Ravens were 12-4, won the AFC North and were a Lee Evans dropped pass away from representing the AFC in the Super Bowl against the New York Giants.
A first-round pick in 2008, Flacco has one year left on his rookie contract, but isn't concerned with what other quarterbacks make.
"It's not about the money. It's about what you feel you deserve," Flacco told WNST. "At the end of the day, they'll take care of it and I'll be waiting."
Still, Flacco said he wants to get a contract finished before the season starts.
"I hope that we both want to get something done before the beginning of the year because when the year comes and goes and I haven't been re-signed, then that's when things can start to get complicated," Flacco told WNST.
Pro Bowl running back Ray Rice, a restricted agent, was given the Ravens' franchise tag earlier in the offseason and has yet to work out a longterm deal with the team. Flacco hopes to avoid the same situation.
"You don't want to get to the point where you play out your contract and you get to those complicated situations where they can put the franchise tag on you and things like that," Flacco said. "I don't really want it to get to that point just because of that. If we do, it's not going to be a distraction. It's just going to be what it is."

Re: NFL Off Topic 2012
I don't mind him having confidence. It's something you need to be a good QB or just player in general, but I don't know, to me it seems he should know what's going to happen when he says something like "I'm the best QB in the league" and should have just kept that to himself. It's not like there isn't already enough pressure on him as is.Originally posted by bradtxmale

Re: NFL Off Topic 2012
You guys don't think that he's being a little superstitious do you? That he saw what happened with Eli last year and had the opportunity to do the same thing...maybe have the same result? (Ehh I'm grasping at straws here lol.)
In all seriousness, I like the confidence in himself...if he didn't say this, I'd be worried as a fan. Like if someone asked Matt Stafford if he thought he was a top 5 QB in the league, as a Lions fan, I expect him to say he thinks that he's the best. And if he doesn't, I'd be worried as to why he isn't confident in himself.Check out my Houston Astros Dynasties:

Re: NFL Off Topic 2012
He should have learned from the Eli fiasco what not to say. Everytime he speaks to the public it seems he says something he shouldn't have.
He's just doing what he can to get top dollar. Too bad by his estimation, talking to radio hosts about what he deserves is what he thinks is best. Should be interesting how the Ravens respond and how he performs this year.
The Mark Sanchez contract will have an influence on this situation as well.Comment
