Silly girl.

Agreed. Begone.

From a business perspective, the FO and Harbaugh had a solid backup who played cheap, always got positive yardage, never took a solid hit, constantly beat down competition for his backup job, and never complained about not getting an opportunity to showcase his talents by running the first unit. But that's all neither here nor there as we had an opportunity to pick up better talent for the $$$contract Schaub managed to wrangle out of Ravens management. I would feel a little more secure with either Christian Ponder, Colt McCoy, Josh McCown, Brian Hoyer, Tavaris Jackson, Ryan Mallet, Jake Locker or my personal favorite, ex Maryland QB Shaun Hill as a backup and potential starter in case of a Flacco injury.

Oh, I understand the thinking that went behind this signing. What I don't understand is this gamble and this kind of paycheck for what amounts to severely damaged goods. Keeping Tyrod Taylor for less money or resigning Kyle Boller right off the street would have made more sense.

What are you? A hausfrau, a soccer mom, or a 14 year old girl? Hint: If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. If this is all too much for your oh so delicate sensibilities - just go away. Your ground shaking contributions won't be missed at all. Begone.

Sorry 82, but bad insurance is bad insurance. It is what it is. 31 other NFL teams know this - why not us. And please don't bring up Mark Bulger. He was a disaster in waiting, immobile, shot QB who, fortunately for us, never saw the field. Flacco is a lot older than he was during the Bulger backup year. Joe Flacco is likely much more vulnerable than he was back then. Why oh why would you bring in a dirtball Turn Over King as backup and potential starter? That's waaaaaay too much of a gamble.

Oooooooooo. You took a vacation then came back with nada - bupkus - nothing. You shoulda come back with something - anything about Schaub, but naaaaaw, that was too much to ask.... apparently some things will never change. You need another vacation.

That's the dumbest response I've ever read. Even the pitiful Raiders refused to keep Schaub on their roster. Why would we sign this bum to a 4 million dollar contract? You'd better hope and pray Flacco does not get injured this year for it will surely be curtains for a winning Ravens season.

When there's no rebuttal there's no argument.

He's the 2 million dollar Turn Over King. Do you have confidence in a 2 million dollar INT machine?

He's a Turn over King. Do you have confidence in a 4 million dollar INT machine?

Understood, but that in no way excuses Schaub from being the Turnover King he's been for the last few years.

Don't care what Quadry Ismael says, that statement doesn't explain Schaub's INT's in his last days as a Texan and his disastrous tour of duty in Oakland. Receiver not being aggressive and going for the ball? That's a pretty lame excuse.

Still not convinced Schaub is the guy to run this offense in the case of a Flacco injury. I look at his body of work over the last few years and Thursdays' so so performance against the NFL's 31st worst defense as evidence. For the money he's being paid ( 4 million ), Schaub should have scorched the N.O. secondary instead of the dink and dunk show show we all witnessed.

Correction: ( 1 ) Play action is as old as single wing formations, double wing formations, and leather helmets with no face guards. ( 2 ) Pure pocket passers are a thing of the past. Mobile QB's are trending.

Just read an article that states that Matt Schaub explains his many camp INT's are because he's attempting more difficult throws to get his receivers on board with his timing. My question is does that explain his many INT's in his last days in Texas and his many INT's that got him benched for a rookie in Oakland? We shall see. We shall see.

Matt Flynn in a full body caste is an upgrade over Matt Shuab. Let's all hope Shaub never hits the field.

N.E. just released QB Matt Flynn. Would anyone be opposed to bring in Flynn and dumping Shaub as backup?

How much cap space do we have left? You know how Ozzie likes to pad the roster with vet experience following camp cuts. Just wondered how much $$$$ Ozzie will have to work with and what level of FA talent will be available to him.

Well, this might be the year that Flacco gets injured; so who takes over now? Shaub? We shoulda kept Taylor - more upside and cheaper than Shaub.

We did draft someone to supplant Tyrod Taylor and eventually become groomed to be Joe Flacco's future replacement- his name was Keith Wenning. We shoulda kept Taylor.

Gotta say I told you so. Shaub is the same shot QB he was in Texas and Oakland. Keeping and paying Tyrod woulda been the best option. Whatever happened to Wenning?

Webb was not going to be 100% coming into the season and we lost Graham to FA, we needed bodies in the secondary. Drafting a noodle armed QB and trading the next years' pick to get back into the draft to get Campanaro defies Ozzie logic.

Campanaro will wind up on the practice squad. I think he's safest there as no team will try to sign him given his injury history. I still can't wrap my head around the Wenning and Campanaro picks. In a year when we desperately needed bodies in the secondary, we traded 2 picks for a guy with an injury history dating back to high school and a QB with a noodle arm. What was Ozzie thinking?

First you say Rex stood behind his bad QB's and now you say Rex stabbed his QB's in the back by recommending replacements. Make up your mind.
