Updated throughout the day with quick takes from staff.
Joe Flacco apparently isn't very happy with the media coverage of him. The Ravens QB spoke to the press on Wednesday, four days before Baltimore hosts the Houston Texans in the divisional round of the playoffs and he expressed some frustration towards reporters.
"I'm sure if we win, I'll have nothing to do with why we won according to you guys. It is what it is."
And...
"You guys want everybody to be ... Rodgers and be ... Brady, but you guys do realize, those guys don't run the ball?"
C'mon. He plays for a team that's had one of the best defenses over the last decade-plus. No one's asking Flacco to be Brady or Rodgers but he is fairly accomplished, at least in the postseason. He's been to two AFC Championship games. He's trying to win his fifth playoff game this weekend in just his fourth season.
But Flacco can truly judge his worth sometime later this year when he is awarded a contract extension. Flacco's deal is up after the 2012 season and the Ravens have indicated something will get done before the season. He'll know where he really stands when the Ravens make him an offer.

That's an awesome personality trait for a QB to have
A “me first” attitude. Flacco, go out and do something first before you whine about your amount of media coverage. Its a team sport after all.
