I hate to say it because I've never endorsed Flacco, but his big arm is THE reason they were playing in the 6th quarter to begin with.

Credit the coaches, they found a plan and uuUUUSSssed it.

Yeah but let folks in here tell it, noone but schaub underthrows/ overthrows balls with regularity like that.....

Yeah Flacco only threw that ball 60 yds to the opposite hash. Noodle arm

Yep

I wasn't a believer in Flacco, he just seemed to be missing the IT factor. However 2 AFC championship games in a row, including 1 dropped pass away from the SB has made me reevaluate Flacco.

Plus he got to the conf final in his rookie year. The kid is a frigging good QB with. Growing resume of playoff wins. He deserves more praise than he will ever get. Only a ring will take care of that.

I've got a hard time calling that an underthrow.

Jacoby hesitated, because he's Jacoby & not the sharpest tool in the shed. Sure, you know with 30 seconds left in the game the play is going to be deep. Not Jacoby. He runs about 10-15 yards, looks to see if Flacco still has the ball, then runs to get underneath it.

When Schaub underthrows a ball, the receiver stops, turns around, knits a sweater, fights off the DB, then tries to catch the ball. The DB who is beat usually has time to make up the distance. Jacoby had to run to catch up to that ball, the DB was still beat.

Hate to say it, but the odds of this happening twice in the same weekend.... extremely low.

up by 7 with MULTIPLE opportunities to shut the door. that AWFUL safety positioning on the 70 yard TD to Jones will forever go down as maybe one of the worst defensive plays in NFL history

You forgot about us already?

Signed,

Pollard, Wilson, Demps.

Hate to say it, but those odds have no correlation.

You totally missed the point of that. Flacco is known for having a big arm and yet here is an underthrown ball. The point wasn't his arm - it was that QBs and WRs are both working guessing games on exactly what the other is going to do. Every time a ball is behind a receiver it isn't an arm strength issue. There are all sorts of judgement issues as well. Flacco had several overthrown balls which were totally uncatchable. Carr used to do that as well.

It was a 50 yard pass by the way - not that it makes a difference to this conversation.

I hope we outscore the ex-Texans this weekend.

Yep. Outscoring Trindon Holliday alone puts us closer to victory than we were last time.

Absolutely no relationship possible

I wonder how much Jim Caldwell helped with the defense on picking mannings brain

If Caldwell had a clue as to what was going on in Manning's brain, the Colts wouldn't have gone 2-14 last year & get the first pick in the draft.

What I mean is he was with manning for about 8 years. One would think he has knows a lot of inside info

Nice to see Trindon and Jacoby find the end zone three times during the divisional playoff round...but it also reminds me where some of our speed went.
