Wait.............................................. .................................................. ................... What?????
Okay Baph, you're more level headed than that........ You may say things to Troll some people in here and get them twisted, but WHAT???
Taylor has started 46 games in 8 seasons in the league. He has a 23-21-1 record. He doesn't throw many INT's, I'll give him that, BUT, he has fumbled 20 times in 46 games. He has won NOTHING...... He has only been a scrub starter.....
Flacco's history is a little better than that. Stats alone have been better than Taylors if you want to go that route but there's more to it than that and you and I both know it.

i dont know how many times i have to show you this......
do you not realize how bad that actually is??
sure, he played pretty good 6 years ago but something definitely happened. some QB's play well at first but crash and burn, that is the story of joe flacco. yes taylor is better than flacco is currently and he's better than flacco has been the last 5 years too.
sure flacco's "history" is better because he has a ring and a good win/loss record in the playoffs but he's not a better QB now and he's not a better QB the last 5 years or so, either. you also have to consider what team flacco played for vs what team taylor played for. Taylor has been that teams best QB is some time and that's not to say taylor isn't a "scrub starter" like you pointed out, he is. but flacco is worse, i honestly can't think of another starting QB i would want less leading my team, over the last 5 years and that includes eli.
okay maybe bortles but it's kind of a toss up at this point.
You can throw that stat line up over and over again..... There's more to it than stats.
6 out of 11 seasons a playoff contender. Only on true losing season plus a below .500 record prior to being hurt last year..... The one true losing season, his leading receivers names were Kamar Aiken and Crockett Gilmore.... Who??
We will see what this season brings. Change of scenery is often a good thing. Maybe we have Rich Gannon's second act or maybe it's Jake Plummer's....... Or maybe it's someone worse. Time will tell. Taylor has not been that good and hasn't been someone that is a leader like Flacco is.
I keep saying, "let the games be played". At that point we can judge what is there.
yes and the ravens won despite joe flacco over the last 5 or 6 years, not because of him. do you seriously think the ravens were ever built around flacco??
you're being optimistic, that's fine. all i'm saying is up to this point taylor has been better, at least the past 5 years or so. that's why i said taylor is better than any broncos QB since manning retired.
it's not as outlandish of an opinion as you are pretending that it is.
