>"fairly decent receivers in his corps throughout his tenure."

Flacco had Derrick Mason, Anquan Boldin, and Steve Smith all on the tail end of their careers. Torrey Smith let a mofo steal a ball from him without making an attempt to catch it. That was his last play in a Ravens uniform. Flacco's #1 receiver a few of those early years was Ray Rice.

Since Rice was dropped, Flacco's demise was hastened.

And with old receivers and throwaways, dude still put up almost 40k passing yards in his time.

Again, I'm not saying Joe's the greatest ever but Ozzie could have and should have done a better job of drafting offensive talent to put their franchise QB in the best position to succeed. We let Ozzie live too long on that '96 draft when, in fact, he's been kinda suspect for years.
