Harbaugh made it official today. I think it was still an open debate even with Lamar doing pretty well and the team responding well overall to him being there. Huge call for a team fighting for a playoff spot. May be the end of a decade of Flacco for the Ravens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilpimp972 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 He earned it IMO, he isn't a good passer right now but you look at other rookies (Rosen...) and they look pretty bad too. Buuuut, he helps that run game, and that plays right into the hands of their very good defense. I'm rooting for him to improve his passing though. EDIT: And the fact that Flacco is a terrible QB nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 This was the right decision. Jackson is going to have the run game rolling the rest of the way and when you combine that with the defense, the Ravens will be in pretty much every game regardless of who they face. Jackson is definitely flawed but why would you go back to Flacco when you know exactly what you are getting with him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFlaccoSeagulls Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 This decision is a no-brainer. Ticket sales are up. Wins are up. We just went toe-to-toe with KC in their place. The offense finally has an identity we've been searching for since 2015. He was never going to get his job back unless Lamar really faultered OR Harbaugh was completely incompetent.

footbull3196 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 After Sunday it’s pretty hard to argue against this in terms of both the business aspect and the football aspect of the decision. Lamar put them in position to win on Sunday before Mahomes made an absurd no look pass on 4th down. He actually showed some improvement as a passer last game as well, I thought that 40 yard pass to the end zone in the 3rd quarter was a dime that could have been caught Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The belief that what you have now is good enough and that change could possibly be worse without considering that it could also very much more likely be better.

MWil23 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Let's see, John Harbaugh coaching for his job, his team's season, and would have actually thought of having THIS guy determine all of it: If he started Flacco though...there's always the possibility of THIS: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked pretty good for the most part. Still has bad throws (seen in the twitter thread below) but also a lot of good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how truthful that is or how limited he'll be, but I haven't heard anything additional on his ankle since Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
