Comments on: Flacco could give Ravens a break with structure, not amount http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/02/08/flacco-could-give-ravens-a-break-with-structure-not-amount/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Wed, 19 Jun 2013 21:30:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: rnaknight11709 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/02/08/flacco-could-give-ravens-a-break-with-structure-not-amount/#comment-2328918 Sun, 10 Feb 2013 03:13:49 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1719432#comment-2328918 This is ridiculous I do not think Flacco is worth 20 million a year. Don’t get me wrong I am a Ravens fan and I like Flacco but he is too inconsistant to pay him that kind of money. Besides he has only been in the league 5 years and he has not proved himself to be worth of that kind of money Super Bowl MVP or not. He and his agent are just being greedy and if thats the way they want to be I say cut him as much as I would like to keep him on the team but what kind of team will there be if they dish out that kind of money to him. Not a very good one.

Inflation in the NFL is absolutely insane. You simple can not expect the value of individuals in a product to rise faster than the people who pour money into the coffers can muster.

Pre-SB 47:

“Flacco sucks.”
“You’ll never win with Flacco”
“Your obsession with us is hysterical.”

Post SB 47:

“Enjoy salary cap hell.”
“Flacco’s lucky not good.”
“Your obsession with us is hysterical.”

And the whole time, they fail to realize that everything they are saying applies more to their own team of choice.

Is that irony? Or is it karma?

Either way, they’ll trot out rings the franchise won before most of them were born.

Like I said, predictable.

For those who don’t know, the guy pictured with Flacco is one of the original members of Spinal Tap, who dropped out before the band rose to fame.

He has found moderate success as a sports agent.

Love his game, love his demeanor. Excellent player. He’s a quiet and pretty humble guy-from what I’ve seen from him. On the other hand, his agent is not. This Linta guy is always running his mouth. He’s making his client look bad, to me at least.

Joe Linta, shut up bro.

___________________________________
Not an honest point. No other position has a top earner making 20 mill/yr either.

Pretty sure Flacco wouldn’t like to see his receiver corps back at 2010 & before status. QB is a very, very dependent position. Yes the elite guys make guys around them better. But if you gave me a choice of top 5 contract and more money to put talent around me and the absolute best contract but talent around me suffers, I’d take the former all day. It’s a team sport and one man bands don’t win championships. Now if all one is interested in is money, go for it. But I don’t want to hear those guys or their agents EVER complain about the talent level around them.

Who cares? Flacco is like a turd that won’t flush. No matter how bad he is, the media still gives him attention!
——————— ————————

Really? I have never seen coverage of a turd that won’t flush. I need to reead more.

The agent is trying to strike while the iron is hot. Flacco is a good player. not an elite one. Eli Manning is better, and he is a bit overrated.

The reason he played well was due to the OL switch before the playoffs. Period. Nice adjustment.

He deserves a contract around $15 million per season over 6 years.

If that is his agent, I can say with fairly confident certainty that he is a self-promoting attention hound.

all the agent cares about is his cut. that’s why he is tying to get the most money so that he can get a larger portion of the contract.

OMG! An agent trying to get the most money he can get for his client? Absolutely shocking.
