I don't know. I wonder if Flacco's turned a corner. They got rid of Cam Cameron as OC and brought in Jim Caldwell, from that point onwards, Flacco was playing lights out. 11-0 td-int ratio or something like that wasn't it? If it was a confidence problem he had at times, he's been there and done it now so he shouldn't get rattled so easy.
I agree Rodgers is better, but Flacco might have just turned a corner - maybe he's elite now. Losing Boldin won't help at all though, so we'll see how he does.
