| Ray Rice Feels Ravens QB Joe Flacco Bested Tom Brady In AFC Title Game
Joe Flacco's enduring struggle for respect hasn't gained the traction it deserves, but Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice believes his quarterback's performance in last season's playoffs tells the real story. "It was his show," Rice recently told WQXI-AM in Atlanta, via SportsRadioInterviews.com. "It was his show on offense, and as much credit that I was getting and as much respect I was getting from defenses, all Joe really had to do is prove that we can drive the ball down the field and score, and he did that. Quite frankly, he outplayed Tom Brady the last game." Brady's Patriots won a tight AFC Championship Game, but that wasn't the QB's fault, according to Rice. (Flacco, by the way, was 22-of-36 passing, amassing 306 yards and two touchdowns with one interception.) "He outplayed Tom Brady, and Tom Brady -- he's the trademark for a quarterback," Rice said. "So Joe Flacco feeling the way he feels is only right, because he did it on a high level. He did it on the peak of his performance." Source: NFL.com |
