Elite:
Now that the Baltimore Ravens have made it all the way to the Super Bowl, the discussion about whether or not their quarterback, Joe Flacco, is among the ranks of the NFL’s “elite” passers has yet again reached a fever pitch.
In Flacco’s first five seasons in the league, he’s helped his team reach the playoffs, but this is the first time the Ravens ahve reached the top of the mountain, representing the AFC in the Super Bowl.
Trade:
With 54 wins and 26 losses in his regular season career, Flacco is on pace to break into the top 50 winningest NFL quarterbacks in just a few short years.
He’s averaging just five losses per season, which makes sense considering the Ravens have reached the playoffs every year he’s been under center, and an average record of 11-5 would surely put them into the postseason.
