1. $6M.

2. Joe Flacco to Arizona would be amazing

3. No doubt at all Flacco will have the opportunity to help the Bengals because Burrow will not play a full season.

4. I'd rather have Flacco at $6M than Dak at $60M.

5. I can kind of understand, truly elite players can be tough to manage

6. The man is 41 years old, come'on. Every NFL team wants a young, mobile, accurate QB. Joe is accurate,maybe, but not mobile or young.

7. Tankathon is already started for some teams. Look at the QBs next yrs draft

8. He's 41 years old, has a Super Bowl ring, & yet has "unfinished business." Sir, don't you want to be able to hold your grandchildren without suffering excruciating pain?
   Brett Favre & Joe Montana come to mind.

9. I mean I certainly don't think he's a premier starter, but if you're a team trying to rebuild and you're grabbing a new QB that needs to learn and sit behind someone for a year or two, he'd be a great choice for that kind of situation. Not to mention he wouldn't cost much so it would free up money for other positions

10. I think KC might have had interest (only bc it makes sense), but I think he wanted to be THE starter & not the eventual backup + he was also more expensive for them (imo). They got Fields instead for half the price $-wise. (I'd prefer Flaco, but we'll see how Field does if/when he gets the chance to play.
    Tua is perfect for a backup role. Decent QB, generally. Can run an offense & gives you a chance to win. Less likely to start for a lengthy period, so his exposure to another concussion is limited. He could potentially stay in the league much longer that way.

11. Someone thinks he is better than he really is. I think he's a bargain replacement for some poor performing QB's in the league or a solid backup.

12. I've always liked and rated Flacco.👍😁🍺

13. I would not go with Tua, hear is damaged beyond repair psychologically from fear of concussions. Flacco in Cincinnati may get a chance to what that team, their line is not able to keep Burro upright.

14. I know Mike Tomlin thought Flacco was to good to be traded into his division. In fact he was rather pissed about it.

15. Flacco wants to be a starter. He needs a time machine.

16. The Vikings messed up

17. That was for the cameras. Even Flacco knows his best days are long over. But whatever…go play some more ball and keep collecting checks.

18. Cincinnatis defense couldn't stop a high school team

19. At this point, I'm not sure what the scenario is for him being signed as anything other than a backup, except for "team waiting to draft a QB next year" or "Just drafted a QB and don't want to start him until next year."

20. I’d rather have Flacco than Jordan love

21. Yeah yeah yeah, every NFL player has been taught since high school to have ultimate confidence in themselves. That doesn't mean they're correct. 🤣 Especially at 40+.

22. Flacco will be starting for the Bengals by week 5 when Burrow strains his pinky finger or something.

23. I think Flacco still is a better choice than some QB ones this year for some teams and I think he would have won more games last year with Cincinnati but that defense ugh

24. flacco might say he's pissed off but he definitely doesn't seem pissed off

25. Hes in a dfferent league now you have to be kinda mobil

26. What am I missing?
    Flacco was 1-5 with a 41 QBR for Cincy, throwing to Chase, Higgins and Fant.
    And in 7 of his 10 games started – he couldn't put up even 20 points

27. Last player in the NFL that was trained as a QB by the Master

28. You trade Flacco to make room for Shedeur. Yeah, they are dumb.

29. Joe seems a little too "normal"for an industry more and more ran by fraudsters, perverts, egomaniacs, avaricious……..

30. I look forward to the day that Joe Flacco comes off the bench to win another Super Bowl.

31. CT3 left the LA Angels and back to the NFL!

32. I'd rather watch him than Dak Prescott

33. Geez… you drinking lava, Rich? ☕

34. Constant high-pitched ringing in your videos !

35. I’d absolutely rather have Flacco than Tua.

36. Tua is a lefty. Who the hell likes a lefty other than Steve Young?!?!

37. Flacco threw for 470 yards, put up 42 points in a non-overtime game against the Bears, a playoff team, last season.. Of course 50 seconds was too much time on the clock for the Bengal's D to close out the game but that wasn't Flacco's fault, he's still got the juice. I'm honestly glad no one else thinks so because he'll be a great backup for Burrow..

38. A bunch of people here gaslighting themselves into thinking Flacco isn’t elite are also acting like Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen ARENT franchise cancers.. meltdown kings

39. As a panthers fan I am VERY glad tua is in Atlanta instead of Flacco. The Elite Dragon can still turn it on

40. Miami would have been a great place.

41. Joe burrow is top 3…top 5 for sure, but he gets hurt alot, so flacco is the backup for the right team at least

42. He was really good with 2 top notch receivers and an offense that fits his skill set. Most see him as a backup because he is without 2 of top 15 wide receivers. Just look at what he did with Cleveland last year

43. Anyone saying Flacco is in the wrong never played any sport at a high level. We have one life. If the tank ain’t empty, you keep going.

44. Go home Bert , you're drunk.

45. Maybe if he shaves every once in a while teams will forget how old he is. Clean it up, Mr. Graybeard!

46. We are very happy to have Joe Flacco back in Cincinnati. Joe Borrow can learn some things from him.

47. As a Bengals fan we are so glad to have him back. Such a class act.!
