Assuming Flacco stays with us next year, what kind of numbers do you expect him to have after Cam is finally gone?

Lots of unresolved questions to decide in the offseason before really considering this. A lot of it depends on:

- Whether Boldin is brought back

- Who our OC is/what the offensive system looks like.

- Whether Andy Moeller is brought back

- What they decide to do with the offensive line: Gradkowski at center? Will McKinnie/Oher become the tackle combo with KO at guard or are they going to try Oher at LT again?

- Do we pick a wide receiver with a mid to early round draft pick?

Don't really want to think much about the offseason yet with a game on hand tomorrow, but even if we lose tomorrow I don't think I could try predicting Flacco's performance next year until this team makes its offseason changes.

If all things remained the same as they are now, I'd expect him to hit around 4200yds and 28 TDs next season. A relatively modest increase, that really just assumes he addresses a couple of his inconsistencies and his dreadful games become average ones.

If the Ravens get a really good OC, an improved O-line and the defense tightens up to take a little pressure off Flacco and allow the no-huddle to flourish, I would expect him to be quite a bit better than that.

Yeah. Too too many questions. First we need to decide what we're going to do with our OC situation... What system will we be running? But then we also need to decide if our OL is enough- I don't believe it is. I think we should spend our 1st pick on a great LT blindside protector- Aboushi and Fisher fit the bill. But I have no idea what the team decides to do to answer these questions so I have no idea what to expect.

Oh and we also have to answer between what we're going to be doing with Anquan Boldin and Jacoby Jones- whether we cut them or extend them or what. Do we draft a receiver talent in the first two rounds to upgrade the situation?

As of right now I think he could throw for anywhere between 3900 yds- 4600 yds.
