Franchising Flacco makes pressure on all other contracts. Can’t have them all, you greedy Ravens

Tough upcoming decisions to make that must be in the best interest of the team to continue to compete. With Suggs $13m cap and possibly Flacco at $20m you damage the team’s ability to compete, thus some serious maneuvering must occur starting with Suggs. Flacco at $20m means we become an average team. In the best interest of the team and it’s future we’ll find out who’s interested in competing or getting paid. Very tough decisions for Steve and the Oz!! But right now, we’re the champions for the next 360+ days!!!!

As a Steeler fan I respect what Ed Reed has done over his career, but he’s clearly on the downside and I’m REALLY hoping the Ravens keep him around.

Bring him back because you need a new leader with slash gone. Beware that his body is about to betray him so spend wisely. Winning a Super Bowl brings its own set of problems are players willing to suck it up for the team like Brady and Big Ben or do they take the money and run…should be interesting to watch

This dude has always been my favorite Raven. I know everyone around here loves Ray, but Ed has been my guy for a while now.

I would root for him in a pats jersey, hell I’d root for him in a steelers jersey. It was great to see him finally get his ring.

The difference with the Patriots when they were winning their SBs is Brady wasn’t making 20 mil a year, nobody on the team was making that kind of scratch so it was much easier to sign guys to friendly team deals.

The Ravens are going to lose some key FAs and one if them is probably Reed. There is a price to winning in the NFL and winning players’ get paid.

Welcome to NE Mr. Reed. You are exactly what the Pats need to get get another ring.

the team’s defense that held (some would say literally)

Some people just can’t let it go………

Florio you need to buy Jim Harbaugh an ice cream and calm him down.

Now remember, even if it was a hold, which former VP of officiating Mike Pereira said “10 times out of 10 it should have been a no call”, and Crabtree caught that pass….. Ravens had 1:45 with all 3 timeouts to work with down 2 points depending on how the niners played it out. My best bet would be that the game would be far from over anyway, that is if the referees didn’t stay consistent and call the plays the same all game of course….which they did.

The ravens are up a creek on this one. They really need to get younger and cheaper real fast if they are going to stay competitive the next 5 years. They put it all out there the past couple years financially to win now its time for them to ride in the sunset. They have to cut Jacoby, let reed go, cut ladarius Webb, restructure suggs, and possibly cut boldin if they even want to think about resigning kruger and ellerbe.

The pimp life was O.K. for awhile, but he hated the hours. Up all night, trying to sleep during the day. The ladies always complaining about something or other…It’s not what it’s cut up to be.

Dolphins or Ravens… The Patriots talk is a ploy by parties interested in jacking up asking value. He has his ring. Now give him a fat retirement in his home town.

As a Steelers fan, I think Ed Reed should go to the Patriots. Or take up fishing. Or something, just get out of the AFC North.

Even if Ed Reed’s lost a step, he’s still better than 90% of the safeties in the league.

Good luck signing all these people when mediocre Flacco eats up all the salary space. It’s the Ravens DEFENSE that has got them to the playoffs and won games each of the 5 seasons. This was the first time Flacco strung a few good games together in his career.

Reed gets no love..should be no questions on signing him
