NEW ORLEANS — Back in front of reporters early Monday after getting about 90 minutes of sleep, a relaxed Joe Flacco accepted the Super Bowl XLVII Most Valuable Player trophy from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell as well as the keys to a brand new Corvette Stingray.
The fifth-year quarterback completed 22-of-33 pass attempts for 287 yards and three touchdowns as his Ravens won the Lombardi Trophy by defeating the San Francisco 49ers, 34-31.

Quite possibly one of the top three (certainly top five) overrated quarterbacks in professional football history.
He hit the nail on the nead giving credit to his offensive line. On any given pass play the Raven's QB had between five and ten seconds to throw. Joe Namath never even had such incredible pass protection.
Heck, even a sportswriter could match Flacco's numbers with that offensive line.
