QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

Flacco is starting tonight.....Troy probabaly won't get any snaps.

Troy lost 13 lbs in 1 week due to his stomach virus.

Worst. Possible. Timing.

If Joe plays well tonight, against 5th and 6th stringers, he'll likely get the nod next week.

Unfortunately, I think the team might break camp with Flacco as the starter. Echo the sentiments of "worst possible timing" for Troy. On the other hand, I think Flacco is absolutely awful, and Troy will be starting in a few weeks once he's healthy. This team will win a maximum of 2 games if Flacco remains the starter this year.

Wow, what a strange turn of events for Troy. He was riding high one week, the next he's watching the rookie take over a team he was going to lead ("Any Given Sunday"), and Flacco is doing decent. Hopefully if the team sticks with Flacco they will get Troy some tv exposure, and get him to a team that can use him as the #1 QB.

Get better Troy, show em what ya got!

Damn. Troy is still one of my favorite Buckeyes. I'd like to see him get a shot. This turn of events is terrible.. maybe if they stick with Flacco he can get out of Baltimore and head somewhere that's willing to give him a shot/not play ridiculously conservative offense.

Get better soon, Troy.
