To pay 15 mil to a qb that you know is going to flounder in the last quarter of the season is absurd, and here's the kicker 3 years ago when the colts released the fat head, the Texans made a play for him and manning made it known he didn't want to play in the WC offense. Gee whos Denver's head coach?

Whipptyfuggindo so instead of a 19 mil cap hit he dropped it down to 15 mil, I don't recall ever ed or ray hitting our club that much. Bottom line pay-pay sucks come January,so who's the bone head in the front office that cut that deal, Screw elway, screw manning

Tucker stays, and I'd get back will hill

What team is vgoing to throw brinks truck money at a 30 year old journeymen rb? I feel Forsett stays put.

Easy takings there,

Yes he did look lost early in the season, as I pointed out, towards the latter part of the season it looked like Joe and Owen were on the same page.

No one is revising history, he didn't tell the entire truth, if there was no tape it would have been a nice cover up.

Buffalo just pulled a trade for Cassell, Rex is going bonkers up there, must be the snow drifts

He did, til the tape came out...I guarantee the day after the incident rice told the brass this is what happened, he absolutely was a fool to believe there was no tape in a casino elevator.

I'd take Owen back, seemed he got his timing down with Joe towards the end of the season. Didn't Denver put the tag on Thomas?

If we had average db' s this past season, we'd been raising the 3rd Lombardi

Wells is a beast, last night was my first time watching a terps game this year. Should be interesting once the big tourney starts. Now that the terps are out of the ACC maybe we've seen the last of the west coast seedings caus of duke and carolina?

Don't think it has anything to do with who had the more terrible secondary, it has more to do with the system, Cary didn't leave here on a sour note, I'd have no problem if they brought him back in.

They took the mans word, I guarantee you rice told the ravens that he pushed her out of the way and he slapped her, that tape threw egg on everyones face.

It's one thing if the man plays then yes we absorb the hit, to do something that causes your release,then relief should be awarded to the team.

I'm thinking McPhee winds up in Indy

NFL needs to step in on the Rice contract,

Forgetting the part where AP' s agent said he'd never play for the Vikings again, going to get interesting since the vikes hold the cards in this situation.

News/Media Late For Work 2/25: Expect Restructured Contract For Joe Flacco Next Year Read this story at baltimoreravens.com Sarah Ellison February 25, 2015 Expect Restructured Contract For Flacco Next Year While the nation got carried away with the $120 million figure along with the tagline “richest contract in NFL history,” those who took a closer look at Joe Flacco's contract always knew it was really a three-year deal for about half the touted price. Heck, even the quarterback's agent, Joe Linta, said as much after Flacco's deal was announced in 2013. "We really viewed this as sort of a three-year deal to make sure the first three years Joe was paid accordingly with the top guys in the league," Linta told The Baltimore Sun at the time. As such, you can expect the Ravens and Flacco's camp trying to work out an extension or restructure at this time next year. “[Flacco's contract] will be the No. 1 priority for the Ravens next offseason,” wrote ESPN's Jamison Hensley. General Manager Ozzie Newsome acknowledged yesterday that the franchise's brain trust has already started to look into Flacco's cap number for 2016, which balloons to a reported $28.55 million and nearly doubles his $14.55 million cap number this coming season. “Part of the discussion that we have down in Florida, we not only talk about the current year, but we talk about the years going forward,” Newsome said, speaking of the annual trip top executives take to review roster plans and goals. “We've already addressed that to a certain degree,” he added. “We've had a chance to look at what 2016 would look like, you know, projecting how many draft choices would make our team. But we'll be prepared to deal with Joe at that number when we get there.” In reality, if the Ravens and Flacco re-do the deal, his original six-year, $120 million contract essentially becomes a three-year, $62 million deal. And even though it was touted as the richest NFL contract ever, Flacco's cap hit has been in the middle of the road compared to other quarterbacks. Check out the numbers below, per Spotrac.com: 2015: $14.55 million -----> Ranked No. 15 among quarterbacks 2014: $14.8 million -------> Ranked No. 11 among quarterbacks 2013: $6.8 million ---------> Ranked No. 17 among quarterbacks[ Under the current contract, those figures drastically change to $28.55 million in 2016, $31.15 million in 2017 and $24.75 million in 2018. As it currently stands, his 2016 number would be the highest in the league. Unless the league's salary cap limit drastically changes, those numbers are “so onerous that it [is] hard to envision Flacco playing under such circumstances,” wrote The Sun's Jon Meoli. “[The Ravens] are likely to restructure and free up some more money for Flacco's supporting cast in 2016.”

Wow I'd rather keep Jacoby and release Torrey

Stupid move by the Sox, double the contract because of a luxury tax? Ridiculous move.
