I'm not a ravens fan. He will get brees like money whether he deserves or not because that's just how the market is. If the ravens don't give him similar money someone will. Or they will be forced to Franchise him.

Market demands he'll get a contract like that. Matt Ryan is going to get brees like money in all likely-hood, and flacco has been better than Ryan. He got 11 TD's no interceptions in the playoffs and a lot of yards. And has been amazing in the playoffs (and good enough in the regular season).

For instance in the NBA, Kobe Bryant Gets Max Money, like Deron Williams, and Joe Johnson. Kobe Bryant is way better than Deron Williams. It's just how it works.

Well if you put it in Nba terms.... Kobe is my favorite player, but he's getting almost 29 million this year and 30 mil next year. Deron isn't even earning 20 this year. Both are overpayed though. 

With Facco, hopefully he doesn't turn into "Flucco" during next regular season, because I think he earned the money this postseason alone.

Yeah I guess that isn't a good example because of how the NBA works (the longer you're in the league the more you're able to get paid on a Max contract), But I'm sure you understood my point.

I personally put him in the category Eli-Manning was after the first superbowl (before he won his second SB and essentially proved himself). Flacco hasn't choked, and he's definetely a good QB. But extremely inconsistent in the Regular Season. 

Flacco's regular season resume, is really pretty average (he had 1 more TD reception and the same amount of interceptions as cam newton) and was carried in large spans by his defense or RB. unlike Aaron Roger's, Tom Brady, and brees.

Like you said though, he played so well in the Postseason, it's hard for the his Agent to not demand a huge contract, so hopefully this wasn't a fluke (well if you're a ravens fan).

I'm a cardinals/GB fan, and cardinals are terrible lol.
