Is Joe Flacco "Elite" Now?

Does a trip to Disney World make you an elite quarterback?

By Joe Parello

Those of you that know my thoughts on Joe Flacco know that I have always been a fan.

I thought he got a bad rap because he didn't put up huge numbers. But, he did what was asked of him, and his team won games as a result. Last year, I even had a drunken argument with our founder Jeremy Conlin about the merits of Joe Flacco being "above average."

In the end, we came to the conclusion that Joe Flacco is, in fact, an average quarterback, but that you could win a Super Bowl with him.

Now, after Flacco's sensational playoff run that should, if history is fair to him, go down as one of the best in NFL playoff history, is the Ravens' signal caller elite?

In a word, no.
