Joe Flacco reveals thoughts on state of NFL QB development
“In a perfect world, a young quarterback would sit,” Ballard said. “Just in a perfect world. We weren’t living in a perfect world. You would have a vet quarterback who’s winning, and you could sit a guy for two or three years and let him play, but that was not a luxury that we were afforded. I even told Shane (Steichen) that I wish, looking back, I wish we would have sat him no matter what, but we didn’t. We played him. He got hurt. Did that setback his development? Yes.”
