Cousins Saga 4.0. Is he done in DC?

Is Flacco really that bad? Look at what's around him.

What is around him is because of his contract and they have been this year at least very snake bitten on injuries.

Flacco has been on the decline though since the SB.

I heard that segment and I happened to think it was spot on. It's a great assessment of Cousins. He's a very good QB, but he cannot carry a team like some other QBs can.

I hear you but its a move that will probably define this team for the next 5 to 10 years.

I get the exhaustion over the subject. But if you're the team's front office it needs to be thought about constantly. What to do at QB is the most impactful decision they have to make - it influences the entire approach for the next 5-10 years.

I honestly understand the argument to go in either direction - pay him top dollar or let him go. It's a challenge no matter which direction you choose.

It'd be easy if he was Carson Wentz. He's not.

This is exactly where we don't want be with KC plus his big contract:

Joe Flacco's fall from Super Bowl MVP to 31st-ranked passer - Baltimore Ravens Blog- ESPN

Flacco’s contract isn’t the reason they’re in the spot they’re in, his contract has never been a major hindrance there.

Hmmm....I tend to disagree and so does Baltimore sports talk radio(for what it is worth). Listen to 105.7 the fan.

Flacco's contract has certainly played a role in them bringing in other talent, coupled with the fact he doesn't perform to the level of his contract. Go back to the S10 post in here; I commented on it. Its the whole talent vs production; if you have only so much gold in a pot and you need to spread it around to build a team you better make sure the ones taking the most gold live up to their potential because you are probably paying peanuts to another position of need. A prime example even for us is DJAX and PG, I bet a million some the reason we let them go was to free up money for KC.

That article mentions nothing about his contract being a factor. His play has fallen off, the front office has failed to support him, and this year in particular they’ve been hit hard with injuries.

Straight from the article:

The Ravens essentially paired the NFL's seventh-highest-paid player with a bargain-basket offense.

I don't know that seems like a issue, not saying its the only issue. Just saying its a large contributing factor to the decline of the Ravens since their 2013 SB.
