The most recent one. He cuts the face off of the CPR dummy and puts it on his own, like Lecter does to the prison guard in SOTL.

You don't have a leg to stand on, statistically speaking, to back up that statement. How the heck do you KNOW Trent would not have led the Ravens to the playoffs. They got there because of their defense, it doesn't even take a good QB effort.

Ok, looking back at his stats, he never really had a statement season. His first 11 games of 2005 were really good, but that was when he got injured and eventually lost the job to Garrard. Still, he's got a strong arm and a career 54:38 ratio on touchdowns to interceptions. He's more than worthy to backup and compete for the starting job with Trent. If we're looking for a veteran backup, I'd put him on my shortlist.

Now that's an idea! Talk about a guy that got a raw deal...Leftwich was a top 10 quarterback, then he slipped a little bit and everybody forgot about him.

Yeah, Kelsay and Bruce are about on the same level, I would say.

He was awful even before he ruptured his spleen.

Denney is a serviceable backup who was unfortunately forced to play this past season as a starter.

Trent threw for more yards per game, threw for a better yards per attempt (which directly refutes your theory that Trent had the high completion percentage because he threw shorter passes), had a higher completion percentage, had a higher QB rating, took less sacks, and fumbled fewer times. All of those statistics are relatively close, but you simply cannot use them to say Flacco had a flat-out better season. You honestly want to tell me that Trent couldn't have led the Ravens to the playoffs?

Hahahaaha, well OF COURSE that's what you were talking about. How could I NOT have known you were talking about the Diet Pepsi Rookie of the Year Award, the most esteemed prize in all of professional sports. By virtue of deliciousness, the Diet Pepsi award trumps the AP award. This is crackin me up. When you refer to "the rookie of the year", you're referring to the AP award.

since we're using caps, MATT RYAN WON THE MOTHERFLIPPING ROOKIE OF THE YEAR. Are you, perchance, living in some parallel universe where Joe Flacco won the rookie of the year?

Might you be thinking of Matt Ryan? Ya know, the guy that actually won Rookie of the Year. Also, Trent's and Flacco's numbers this year were incredibly similar, except for QB rating and completion percentage which Trent has a pretty good advantage in.

Anybody who thinks Joe Flacco "led" the Ravens to the playoffs wasn't paying close enough attention. More appropriately, he was decent enough that he didn't PREVENT them from making the playoffs.

BUT we're also no worse than we were 3 years ago. That makes it ok, right? RIGHT?

Yeah, but they could have been incorporated into the show much better...eh, whatever, great episode anyway.

Yeah, best one in quite a while. I just hated that whole thing with Jessica Alba, Jack Black and Cloris Leachman. I don't get why that was necessary.

You can't say that Evans isn't a legitimate #1 just because he isn't as good as Fitz or Smith, that's just ridiculous. Evans is still a better receiver than the majority of #1 receivers in the league. Guys like Matt Jones, Ted Ginn (who isn't a superstar like we made him seem), Jerricho Cotchery, Derrick Mason, Kevin Curtis, Deion Branch...they are all #1 guys on their teams. How can you say Evans isn't legit?

Katy Perry is the hotness...she has a certain "nerd chic" about her. Kind of like a Zooey Deschanel, but with better byoobs.

Bold, brother, bold.

Wow, that's an awesome story. Don't mistake me for a Giants sympathizer, but they didn't come much classier than Wellington Mara.

I'm surprised only one person said experience. I went with coaching, but experience was a close second. We're a very very young team.

For anybody who's interested, I'll be giving a short rant (about 2 minutes) on this topic, on the airwaves a few minutes after 6 o clock this evening. www.wvbr.com Live stream is easily accessible on the upper left hand corner of the site. Sorry for the shameless self promotion.

Well, at least now there's Steak and a BJ day to reciprocate for Valentine's.

Football's a team game and even practice squad guys play a signficant role, why shouldn't they get a ring?

Hey man, I'm just bein' honest. They say men think about sex every 53 seconds.

I'm guessing the kid probably dropped the gun, and it sounds like he was standing amongst a group of people. I'm sure the other officers wanted to avoid any sort of shootout to preserve innocent lives.
