Ravens coach John Harbaugh declined to divulge which quarterback will take the first snaps of training camp today, but Joe Flacco has set his sights on who will be the starter at the end of it. "I'm going to go out there and act like I am [the starter], just like everybody else should do," Flacco said. "I'm going to go out there and prove to the coaches, myself and my teammates that I can play. And at the end of training camp, we're going to find out." The safe bet is Kyle Boller will take the first snaps because he has seniority. The 2003 first-round pick has made 42 starts in five seasons. But Flacco and Troy Smith are expected to get their shots throughout the 25-day camp.

"Can Flacco unseat Boller?"

Tune in to find out which QB will go 4 and 12 in 2008.

July 22, 2008  05:47 AM ET

Can he? Of course he can. Will he, is the question. I hate it when wrtters do not use the English language correctly.

And I agree with Yoda, 4-12 is possible but I predict 6-10.

Is it that hard to unseat Boller?

Of course you could, you're Rick James ****!

Us, and them
And after all we're only ordinary men.
Me, and you.
God only knows it's noz what we would choose to do.
Forward he cried from the rear
and the front rank died.
And the general sat and the lines on the map
moved from side to side.
Black and blue
And who knows which is which and who is who.
Up and down.
But in the end it's only round and round.
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words
The poster bearer cried.
Listen son, said the man with the gun
There's room for you inside.

"I mean, they're not gunna kill ya, so if you give 'em a quick short,
sharp, shock, they won't do it again. Dig it? I mean he get off
lightly, 'cos I would've given him a thrashing - I only hit him once!
It was only a difference of opinion, but really...I mean good manners
don't cost nothing do they, eh?"

Down and out
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about.
With, without.
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?
Out of the way, it's a busy day
I've got things on my mind.
For the want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died.

A trained monkey should be able to unseat Boller.

July 22, 2008  09:00 AM ET

Ravens will be bad this year. 4-12 bad.

July 22, 2008  09:07 AM ET

Lol 4-12? Thank goodness you guys don't make bets in Vegas! The other AFC teams are weak. The Browns will be figured out, when Jamal stops running hard, the Bengals just suck and the Steelers have more holes then the Ravens do. Baltimore has a VERY easy schedule which should EASILY give them 5 wins. If they actually play hard, I could see them winning 9 games, which in our division would give them a division crown.

I would think it would be quite easy to do.

July 22, 2008  09:43 AM ET

who will be the Ravens tackeling dummy for opposing defenses next year, what a prize to win.

July 22, 2008  09:48 AM ET

It shouldnt be too hard. Boller is a bust.

July 22, 2008  09:48 AM ET

Unseat him as a bigger bust maybe.

July 22, 2008  10:06 AM ET

This isn't news at all.....lol

July 22, 2008  10:12 AM ET

Steelers have more holes than the Ravens? Maybe on the O-line but that is about it.

Question: Can Flacco unseat Boller?

Answer: You may rely on it.

Better Question: Can Boller hold onto his job?

Answer: Outlook not so good.

 
July 22, 2008  10:42 AM ET

I didnt even know Boller was still there...I mean if Troy Smith takes over for you isn't it time to move on?
