the 3 point shooting was awesome.Just got home. Man the defenses sure gave up a lot of points.
very tough kidJeez Flacco was good today.
My first thought was that Flacco could have won the EMU and Nebraska games with the type of play he showed with today. Then, to be fair, I realized that if he had to play those games with the same Kill game plan that Gio did, probably not.Jeez Flacco was good today.

He does seem to play with a fire we are missing at times though.
I don't know about that.Feel free to totally disagree with me here but as I watched today I got the impression that, even though he took off the black shirt, the defense didn't want to hit him. Imagine being the guy who knocks one of your QB's out of action. I don't think any of the defensive players wanted to be that guy. So I don't know if what we saw today when he scrambled is what we would see in a true game vs a defense who wants to knock the QB out of the game.
Actually, I hope you are right because it would mean our tackling is better then what we saw when he played.Feel free to totally disagree with me here but as I watched today I got the impression that, even though he took off the black shirt, the defense didn't want to hit him.

It’s how the team moves and executes when Flacco is in there.Actually, I hope you are right because it would mean our tackling is better then what we saw when he played.
I guess the point I was trying to make is that, based on Flacco's size and arm strength he would be overmatched against (just like a few of our previous QBs have been) against those 4-5 teams on our schedule who are putting 4* and 5* star defenders out there. However, he seems to be that stereotypical "scrappy" undersized college QB who wouldn't have let the offense sleepwalk through a few of those games that were winnable with just a decent offense.
Most of the first half started on the 20 yard line which resulted in easy field goal attempts.Just got home. Man the defenses sure gave up a lot of points.
Lewis had that one drop but otherwise he looked like he was very good at getting open and had good receiver skills.
It was good to see Snorweah score a td. Does anyone know where the game stats can be found? Can you post them here?
That was my point. There is an energy when he plays that could have gotten the team over the hump in a few of the close games. If you told me he was starting 6-7 games on our schedule I would figure that is an upgrade from Gio.It’s how the team moves and executes when Flacco is in there.
He has them flowing...IMO, it’s more about the entire unit than him being overmatched
Would like to see Snorweah get a shot at returning kicks and possibly jet sweeps and receiving out the backfield.It was good to see Snorweah score a td. Does anyone know where the game stats can be found? Can you post them here?
Flacco completed 8 of 10 passes for just 73 yards and suddenly he has become the fan favorite. Chas Dodd had a big arm and excelled at throwing downfield. I think many are drawing to many conclusions from 15 plays in a spring game. McNulty and Ash see him every day and at this point do not have him in contention for the starting job...insisting it is either Art, Gio, or JLew.Flacco reminds me of Chase Dodd; Sitkowski of Turnova. Both can win games.

Yeah we had so many to choose from.2016 Laviano

#FreeRettigYeah we had so many to choose from.
Please tell me where McNulty or Ash insisted QB would be one of the 3 you mention. If I recall Ash said he was hoping to name starter with about 2 or 3 weeks before 1st game. Don’t put words in coaches mouthsFlacco completed 8 of 10 passes for just 73 yards and suddenly he has become the fan favorite. Chas Dodd had a big arm and excelled at throwing downfield.

"It's 3 guys who are competing with the ones. . . you know, between Gio, Art and Jonathan Lewis."Please tell me where McNulty or Ash insisted QB would be one of the 3 you mention.

Is there a way we can stop them from doing that ?Let the coaches decide who the QB should be.

In fairness to Lewis, he could have had a bad day.well to my untrained eye, he showed way more than gio or lewis. he showed fire and leadership and confidence. Lewis was not good at all.
Unfortunately you are right...all based on an 8-10, 73 yard passing performance.#FreeRettig
