Dallas lost. We got this.  On top of that they lost romo in the first play.

Had to text Jeremy to ask him how Tebow was doing....

Once we fire Cam, pick up Norv Turner for OC, you'll see what he can really do. 

You can take him.  Norv Turner is terrible as a head coach.  I'm not even a Chargers fan.

I agree he is a terrible head coach.  He will make an excellent OC though.

"When you consider that Flacco’s name appears next to some of the greats in the game, past and present, it’s hard not to compare the Baltimore media, and at times Ravens fans (me included), to the likes of Red Sox and Yankees fans when it comes to expectations and criticisms of his play.

With the Indianapolis Colts' horrendous season and the Philadelphia Eagles being eliminated from playoff contention this past weekend, the Ravens, having clinched their franchise-record fourth consecutive postseason appearance two weeks ago, currently hold the longest active streak of consecutive playoff appearances.

Including the playoffs, Flacco's 36 wins during his first three seasons tied Miami Dolphins great Dan Marino for the most ever by a QB during his first three years in the NFL.

In fact, only two QBs in modern NFL history have started the first 60 games of their career, Peyton Manning and Joe Flacco. The difference between Flacco and Manning during their first five-dozen games is Flacco’s done it while winning.

With a Week 6 29-14 victory over the Houston Texans, Flacco reached the 40-career-win mark (including playoffs) in just 60 games. Manning had only 30 wins in his first 60 starts and of all QBs since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger who started since day one of their rookie season and never missed a start, Flacco is the fastest to 40 total wins. After Saturday’s victory, Flacco now has 47 wins in 70 starts, which ties him with Drew Brees for the most wins since the start of the 2008 season.

Many will say that Flacco has benefited from one of the best defenses in the NFL during that time, and while that may be true, he has more than done his part at times during those wins, throwing 57 touchdowns and 14 INTs with a 97.8 QB rating. His completion percentage, which has come under fire this season, is 62.4 percent during that span.

The Ravens are 27-3 when he produces at least a 95 rating, and 13-1 when he's at 110 or better. He's won 27 games at home, which is tops amongst NFL starting QB's since 08. During those wins, No. 5 has thrown 29 TDs and just eight INTs for a 96.9 passer rating.

Flacco has won almost 70 percent of his games (43-20) during the regular season, and is 4-3 in the postseason, with all seven games being played on the road."

How can you read that and say Flacco isn't a good QB?  :

Notice I said good, not great.
