On Tuesday, the 6th yr player and Super Bowl MVP , took things a step further by describing it as a "high school offense."

"...it is what it is, I don't like that stuff.  I think it makes you look like a high school offense. That's just my opinion."

"I don't look at it as a slap in the face to me...I want as many chances as I can to get behind the line of scrimmage & I just don't like that stuff in general."

Flacco lined up as wide receiver on five occasions last week with back-up Tyrod Taylor serving as QB, and never took his hands out of his pocket. When I asked if he had spoken to the coaches he responded by saying "they know how I feel."
