AFlaccoSeagulls Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 So Harbaugh's presser just revealed some things: 1) Harbaugh thought about putting Joe in (not a surprise at face value) - but everyone, including Joe, was on board not to play him and stay with Lamar. That's interesting. 2) Harbaugh wants to be back here moving forward (I think that solidifies that he will be) 3) Lamar is our QB moving forward, and Joe will be traded/released.

The only X-factor is the element of surprise that Flacco coming off the bench could've provided. That's it. But that's ALSO ignoring the fact that our OL was straight up getting beat up and down the field all day long, and a pocket QB (who is rusty AND has a history of making poor decisions under pressure!) would've yielded objectively worse results than a mobile QB under those circumstances. Ultimately, I think the right call was made. I was on board with the decision IF we wanted Flacco to come in, but yeah I agree not much would've changed.

Has been the history with Flacco. Bad running game? It was because Flacco wasn't a threat there. Bad passing game? It was because Flacco was inaccurate, didn't read the defense, didn't see open receivers etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And whenever a WR makes a contested catch it's "bailing out whoever is at QB" but when it's a respected QB it's "giving his wr a chance to make a play".

It would have to be at least a 1st rounder plus something else. Something nearing what Tampa gave up for Chucky back in 2002 would be unbelievable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys are just noticing that the commentary on Baltimore QBs is laughable if not outright odd ?.......... Hopefully Lamar gets analyzed better than Joe did, but I'm not holding out hope. I'm sure it will all boil down to the same drivel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that he didn't get much help from neither oline, neither receivers and the play calling was suspect. The only difference is we had the opportunity to change up the pace of the game with Flacco who is someone who could come in and do some damage immediately with his arm in a hurry up offense, who is more experienced etc. There was no guarantee it would work, but at least we instead would have tried something. This felt like we accepted the loss with the rookie QB and had it as a learning experience. Somehow we got a chance to get back, but not because we made the right decisions, at least that is what I am thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.10.E Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 We got a chance back because the Chargers started to play soft and we got rid of the full house playbook and let Lamar play football. Adjusting our offense makes 1000% more sense than switching QBs but we didn't do that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
