“I’d say that Joe Flacco has been playing this game for a really long time and he’s been in a lot of different systems, so I’d bet that he’d have no problem picking it up in a short period of time,” LaFleur said. “I think the hardest thing for them is going to be the nuances of your cadence, your snap count, the rapport you have with the other players. Now, he’s pretty fortunate, he has some good guys to certainly throw to.”

“You should be pissed off, like sitting around pissed off,” Parsons told reporters. “We just gave up 40 points, and we’re talking about we can’t give up 20 and how we shouldn’t lose games. That’s how you lose games. We should be pissed off. We should be ready to come out here and play Sunday regardless of who’s playing and whip some butt. If we’re really dogs. That’s how I look at it. If we really say who we want to be, we should take that (game), how we finished last and we should punish these guys. And we should want to leave a statement. It should be a statement win. It should be a statement on defense. Like I just think it’s a statement. Like these guys should be pissed off because I was pissed off.”
