Flacco's maturation is on pace with some of the NFL's most-respected quarterbacks, however. Through his first 31 games, Flacco has a higher quarterback rating than Petyon Manning posted in his first 32 contests. He has thrown for nearly 500 more yards than the Chargers' Philip Rivers did through his first two seasons. Flacco is averaging more passing yards per game than Tom Brady did over the same span.

Statistically, Flacco is having a slightly better sophomore season than Brady and Rivers had. His quarterback rating is a hair off Manning's (89.5 versus Manning's 90.7).

Flacco thinks that as the current offense grows, and as he grows within it, the potential is limitless.

“As we get better, I’ll get better,” he said. “They could even be better if we kept operating like we did at the beginning of the season. We hit a little lull towards the middle of the season, so that’s why things are where they are.

“But really, it’s more important to win football games and have a chance to go to the playoffs in my second year for the second straight time, that’s what’s cool to me. That’s what matters.”

Ah Cravn if it wasn't a 10 year bet I would have to bet you $100,000

That in Flacco's 12th year he will not be close to passing for over 4,400 yards and 33 TD's and have a NFL record of over 50,000 yards passing in 12 years....or ever.

Or anything close to 366 career TD's

Our recievers have looked good because Peyton was passing to them.

As Painter and Sorgi have showed us

After Peyton retires the Colts will be back to the 90's team and Flacco will just be average since you have to be lucky to have defense,offensive line and recievers and TE's....not to mention the RB's we have had ....only 2 good ones and both left for money (Faulk and Edge) and special team players.

Addai sure isn't a HOF RB

Make that bet $1,000,000

Flacco is anything but average, hes on pace with Manning as a soph..And lets not forget, he didnt go to the Univ of Tennessee, he went to a tiny, and I mean tiny Univ of Delaware, where they were lucky to draw 1000 fans at their games. I doubt if he'll touch the TD record either. But anything can happen with the yards,

Just get us a couple of Billy Brooks' for the WR's.
