On Flacco. It’s obviously hard to tell when you’re not there daily, but looking at the offense, and watching the interaction between offensive coordinator Cam Cameron and Flacco, there just seems to be a disconnect. When’s the last extended period that Flacco tore up an opponent? (St. Louis, maybe, with the Torrey Smith explosion?) I don’t recall. Maybe the December game at the wounded Colts, but that almost doesn’t count. He’s had some good moments, but 13 touchdowns in the last 13 regular season games?
With the arm that Flacco has, it’s got to be killing him that the passing game has struggled the way it has. With Smith and Anquan Boldin, to have 20 teams better this season in the illuminating passing yards-per-play stat is a worry. Now, the key for Flacco, and the most important thing with a defense like Baltimore’s, is to be safe with the ball … and he deserves an A-plus for that. In seven games against playoff teams this season, Flacco is 7-0 – and he’s thrown just two interceptions. (With 10 touchdowns, and a 62-percent accuracy rate.) That’s the kind of game Flacco has to play Sunday: move the chains, don’t turn it over, keep the clock running.
