Derek Anderson is one of the best players on this team
-
"Other than the spirt in the 3rd quarter, the offense struggled all day"
and
"Joe Flacco has clearly outplayed Derek Anderson today"
-Jim Donovan on WTAM toward the end of today's game
Flacco's QB rating was something like 107. Joe flickin' Flacco.
This was NOT all on DA today at all, but he just is not a crunch time QB. He's good for the occasional blowout, is somewhat servicable most games, and just terrible others. But in crunch time, he just doesn't have it.

First time poster, loooooong time fan...
DA has sucked ever since his meltdown in the arizona game last season - which really cost us the play-offs.
What have some members got against BQ? - true he lost three bowl games, but ND was ridiculously overrated going into all three. I know, I am a gold domer myself and bet against them in all three.
At least he won enough to get them into the bowl games...

And there MoonDog is the million dollar question. There have even been blogs wondering if BQ is really horrible in practice. A starter with this level of performance should open the door for ANY second string QB, especially a first round draft pick. Even though his QB rating was improved, a dynamic coach would have the insight to look for a spark. RAC does not have this quality.

OK shouldn't the D shoulder the blame for Flacco's good play? Or is he so great that no D can stop him? And in crunch time Flacco handed the ball off for a 60 yard gain to set up the go ahead field goal.

your right!!! just because they where on the fucking field for the entire half because DA had like 6 3 and outs doesn't give them an excuse for giving up yards!

DA is the best player on this team??
Rogers is. This thread is a joke, right?
-
OK well then leave the offence alone and what do you fix on the defence that would help us stop throwing interceptions and under thrown balls!

Leave the defense alone.......what do you fix on offense that keeps us from giving up 14 point lead and 154 yards on the ground..........a 60 yard run in crunch time and a 50 yard TD pass?

I don't think Atenears is suggesting that Anderson has played well since the middle of 2007... or that he's any idea of the long-term answer at the most important position on the field.I think he's saying that he isn't the only problem and when Quinn takes over, we still have other things to fix.
But no, Anderson isn't inspiring any confidence that he can ever be a consistently good NFL starting quarterback. He's providing pretty convincing evidence to the contrary.
HAHA ... so what if we cant fix all the problems! we CAN fix the QB problems right!
-
I'm with ATENEARS on this one.
DA has been inconsistant at times, but he's not be completely at fault.
The Suggs interception was just a bad break. It was fourth down, DA had someone in his face, and he had to let it go.
The O-Line, running game, awful coaching calls, and poor WR play have been the undoing of this team.

But the fact remains that he hasn't had a great game since last year and I for one am tired of winning (as few and far between as those things have been) in spite of our quarterback. I feel I'm not alone here.

Born Loosers... and no... DA does not have it! We have seen plenty of him, now we have determined that he is not good enough... so lets se if Brady is our future! plain and simple!

Whats your standards for a Running back?What about a defense?
What about your #1 WR's drop ratio ... do you have any standards there?
But who here today is touting our #1 WR or say that JLewis is one of the best players on the team today or that the Defense is that stellar today?

You're right.
The Browns looked good when they went up 14 points. If that would have held, we would be talking about the other weaknesses of the team. It seems the play calling and everything else went down the toilet after the Browns got comfortable with their lead.
-
Go ahead and find me all the running backs in the NFL that have had good days on the Ravens this year. It's tough sledding against them.
No one on here is saying Braylon is good. Nor the defense, today. So there isn't an argument. Because there is no assinine jackass saying they are good LIKE THERE IS people saying DA is good.
