Joe Flacco
 
Comparisons to Big Ben. Look at the throw he makes at the 3:30 mark on the run. Amazing.

I got to see him firsthand at the UNI playoff game. That guy, along with one of their linebackers, won the game for them. He was unreal.

SIGN HIM, CARL

He's projected to perhaps go in the second round. Warpaint talked to him today and there's an article going up tonight. Nick thinks the Chiefs might be interested (he also talked to Chuck Cook about Flacco).

Unfortunately, that kid has the lowest release point of any QB I have ever seen. He'd never get a pass over an NFL defensive line.

He's 6-foot-6. It helps.

Deberg_1990 01-21-2008 03:47 PM

Looks good. Id have no problem with the Chiefs drafting him.

He certainly passes the Goturd eye test for an NFL QB.

Chief Henry 01-21-2008 03:51 PM

This film makes him look very impressive.
fwiw, he looks much more physical than Brodie Croyle.

I'm not really picky about quarterbacks where the eye test is concerned. Good quarterbacks are good quarterbacks because of what's between the ears. I think Flacco shows that as much as anyone in that video. You can hear the announcers talking about how well he sees the field and finds open receivers.

Looks great against high schoolers.

I am somewhat. You have to be a pretty decent sized guy to stand back there and take the pounding these guys take from 300 pounders every week.

If he goes through evaluations and the combine and turns out to be anywhere near as impressive as that highlight video he looks like a definite first round pick. Perhaps even HIGH first round pick.

Sure-Oz 01-21-2008 04:32 PM

We should draft him, he's got the whole goofy italian name thing going, kinda like Tony Romo. Maybe he'll be our version!

HolmeZz 01-21-2008 04:55 PM

Flacco's not bad, particularly since the middle QB prospects are weak. Definitely not capable of coming in and playing early though.

How much does that say though, Croyle is pretty small and scrawny for an NFL QB.

It's funny because for a minute there I thought that said: Joe Falco.

BigMeatballDave 01-21-2008 05:41 PM

6-6, and he can run around like that? Sick. No one is even mentioning this kid.

They're both 50 years old?

That dude is still around? :eek:
Jebus, he's got a longer shelf life than styrofoam.

Backup quarterback is a great retirement gig. You show up, you sit around and drink coffee, and you tell the young guys what it was like back when the league only had 12 teams.

Don Strock fully endorses this post.

Is Joe Flacco elite?

He's been living off of the success of one SB win, so he's basically Aaron Rodgers lite...

He is compared to Deshaun Watson and Kenny Pickett.

Deberg_1990 04-11-2025 12:22 PM

Flacco would have won us that Denver game in week 18 last year.

Hes solid as a backup.

Eureka 04-11-2025 10:02 PM

Browns starter this year?

Cause that game mattered at all to the Chiefs.

This is a true statement. Wentz is trash. Glad he's gone
