Joe Flacco Is Getting Hit Too Much

He finished with a season-low 54.0 quarterback rating after going 25-of-44 for 248 yards with two interceptions and no touchdowns. Both Jets quarterbacks Geno Smith and Ryan Fitzpatrick had higher quarterback ratings Sunday.

On the season, Flacco ranks 29th in the league in passer rating (75.4). According to Pro Football Focus (PFF), he’s been the 28th-best quarterback in the league.

So what’s up?

On Monday, a reporter asked Head Coach John Harbaugh whether there’s something wrong with Flacco’s fundamentals, as Flacco has at times thrown off his back foot.

At one point during Sunday’s game, Flacco rolled to his right and fell to the turf while throwing a third-down incompletion.
