Six-Month Offense

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco has been under a lot of criticism lately.

It has nothing to do with his play. Instead, he was panned by many for missing the birth of his second child and opting to play against the Cleveland Browns last Sunday instead.

While sticking with your teammates is something one should be proud of, leaving your wife behind at childbirth can be dangerous, as no one knows if and when complications may set in.

For this, Yours Truly really believes that Flacco has no one to blame but himself.

Look, the NFL season starts in September and ends in February. That means NFL players have a six-month window when they can be at their wives' side during childbirth. But somehow, Flacco is two weeks late.

Like what Dan Patrick says, Flacco may be a good clock manager, but definitely not a good calendar manager.
