Who would you rather have as the Bears QB?
Flacco is probably one of the most overrated QBs in the league. His stats only look good because he's got a great defense, decent oline and a Top 5 (maybe even Top 3) running back. I don't even know if I'd put Flacco in the Top 10.
Jay has had very bad days and horrible throws but I think that playing behind a real oline he could be a better QB than Flacco right now.
Give me Jay any day.
Gimme the guy we've got. One game does not a season make. Magic 8 Ball says ask again later. Like maybe not right after the Ravens won a big game. How did he play against Houston earlier in the year?
i always liked Flacco and wanted him on draft day
Its a push... Cutler can throw into an area and let his wide receiver jump up and get it just like Flacco.
THye are very similar, but FLacco would have cost us 1 1st pick, and Cutt cost us 2 and 3rd. Both have big arms, but Flacco is less likely turn throw the costly pick.
Flacco had a marginally better year than Cutler but it's not the difference between night and day. Flacco also had better protection most of the year too and didn't miss a couple of games. Flacco also improved after Baltimore fired Cameron while Jay had to suffer through a whole year of Tice.
Still, there's not that big a difference. Flacco has an exceptional game yesterday so that's what's on everyone's mind. Not what he did or didn't do all year long.

The grass isn't always greener in your neighbors yard sometimes it just looks that way when you only view it in a certain light. :rolleyes:
Flacco is an average QB in the regular season, but he shows up in the playoffs.
Flacco has seemed to have improved his accuracy in tighter windows. He threw some damn nice balls yesterday. Still, I would take JC as of today.
