    I think most people are acknowledging that he played poorly today.

    However, there are multiple reasons and contributing factors to that poor performance (outside of just him not playing well). Some folks on here though just want to find fault in Flacco regardless of anything else. Injuries, receivers not getting open, OL break downs, bad game plan...none of that matters and none of that has any bearing on the outcome of the game either.

    No one is saying Joe isn't at fault for any part of this game. And to suggest otherwise because people aren't putting the entire game on him again is overreacting to a bad game.

    The passing game stalling was as much the OL and playcalling's problem as it was Flacco missing. As was a touchdown taken away from him. It was an all-around poor game.
    I didn't see either game, so I can't comment beyond the fact that they both lost.

    I DID see Joe Flacco play today and it wasn't pretty. Are there things on the offense other than Joe that needs to improve? Sure, I haven't said otherwise. I just don't think dismissing his poor performance and passing the blame off to the OL, WR's and Cam is fair either.

    To me, this is about as much a team loss as you can have. Joe was poor. The Defense was poor. Bright spots were few...Rice and Tucker. But the thing the burns me up the most was the coaching. It was horrible and if I'm gonna slice up a blame pizza... this is the biggest slice.

    I def agree with this.

    This. I posted a while back that this year Harbaugh had to prove his worth as a HC and got blasted for it. All I meant was that I wanted to see a team where the whole was greater than the sum of its parts, like the Orioles. And that I DIDN'T want to see anymore games like this. He has got to reel Cameron and Pees in. That was pathetic.

    Up 10 points on the road at halftime and you get the ball to start the 2nd. Those are not games you should lose.
    Despite how awful the defense was tactically, the offense completely isht the bed in the 3rd quarter.

    We had 4 complete possessions in the 3rd quarter, but only chewed-up less than 5 minutes of clock.
    In those 4 possessions we had 14 offensive plays...and only 3 of those were runs.
    Those three runs averaged 5.7 yards, so its probably accurate to say that PHI didn't sucessfully adjust to stop the run even after we took it to them in the 1st half.
    And oh...our QB was apparently, clearly understood to be dinged up.

    Of the 4 possessions, 2 of them ended b/c we did not convert 3rd and 2 (INT and incomplete pass), 1 of them ended b/c we did not convert 3rd and 1 (incomplete pass).
    That is insanity.
    That is stupid.
    That's the offense dictated by a man who continuously shows the inability to recognize a.) what is working, and b.) what the defense is giving him.

    Cammie continues to retard this offense...continues to turn wins into losses.

    Which I have not seen anyone else do. I've seen people put the whole loss on Joe though.

    This was a collective loss outside of a couple of key players. I will say this, Flacco did not play with that look of confidence that we saw last week. Utterly disappointing.
