I read this earlier and came away that it was incredibly flattering.

She's basically saying he has cojones the size of grapefruits. Where does she say he will choke?

I don't see it. More of that Bmore inferiority complex where everyone is against us?

[esmd]

I dunno how you read that article and got her saying he'd choke. The gist of it was that there would be a ton of pressure, but that Flacco is unflappable and it won't phase him. I get being jaded against Fox after the hatchet job she did on us after the Colts game, but that article seemed fine to me.

Agreed.

You missed all the wild conspiracy theories before and after the Super Bowl.

I found the article to be surprisingly positive. At first I thought, "Oh boy, is this the same Ashley Fox that said we shouldn't even be on the same field as the Broncos just before the divisional game"? But I found it to be rather complimentary.

lol sorry guys. When I saw the article on ESPN, this article was flush next to a an Insider article that had those words.

My mis-read/mistake.

No worries.

I'll change the title. Still a great piece on Joe.

Gotcha. ESPN does like to get cute with their links and headlines. Clowns.

Cool! Thanks HR.

Yeah I always fall for that on that site. I'll click on their boxes, and click a link thinking I'm reading a story about what I clicked, only to find its' not the right one and suddenly I'm being asked to pay to read an opinion... WTF?

[pslholder96]

Fair piece. Nothing to get fired up about. Joe and the ravens will now have a bulls eye on their chest. Nice problem to have I might add. Looking forward to see what Joe does with a full year under Caldwell.

[JoeCool5]

It's espn.com. You expected credible journalism?

[mmi16]

Pressure is what you make it out to be.

If you are always comfortable in being yourself and doing what you are comfortable doing - there is no pressure.

Joe is himself, doing what he is comfortable doing. No Puressure.

[lovefootball]

Maybe the referees will start calling roughing the passer now, since Joe is up there with brady and the manning boys.I've seen Joe pick himself up after a late hit and say nothing a few times .

[goldenelite28]

Honestly I don't see how this adds any pressure.

Not having won a superbowl was adding way more pressure than this.

[leachisabeast]

Frankly, no Raven fan should ever read whatever she posts ever again after her disgraceful and disrespectful articles after the Colts game, she should have been fired straight after the Ravens won the Denver game, and should have been banned for writing any article about sports ever again after the Ravens won the SB.

All this talk about pressure on Joe....please. Like Unitas once said..."The only pressure you get is what you put on yourself".

[BcRaven]

Flacco had a ton of pressure last year, and if not for a dropped Evans pass, would have taken the Ravens to Super Bowl XLVI vs. the Giants. In 2012, he had an even more burden to get to the same level or beyond, and did it in some crushing circumstances. Our Joe does not fold under pressure... Bc

[Bigfish]

I remember Joe saying recently that last year was more pressure since he was playing for the contract. In his mind there is less pressure on him now.
