The Facts:
Flacco, who has led the Ravens to the playoffs in his first three years with the team, will enter the final year of his contract in 2012. But owner Steve Bisciotti doesn’t foresee losing the most productive QB in Ravens history. "I hate to speak for Ozzie [Newsome, GM], but I would imagine that like John Harbaugh, we would be starting negotiations with [Flacco] so that entering 2012 he won’t be playing in his final year,” Bisciotti said Monday. “I would anticipate an extension that starts in 2012.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
It certainly makes sense. ... Flacco, 26, is the Ravens’ all-time leading passer in yards (10,206), TD passes (60), completions (878) and attempts (1,416). He is just the third starting quarterback since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger to reach the playoffs in his first three NFL seasons, joining Bernie Kosar and Dan Marino. Last season, Flacco ranked in the top 11 in the NFL in completion percentage, passing yards, touchdowns and quarterback rating. In the playoff win at Kansas City, Flacco recorded a quarterback rating of 115.4, a Ravens' postseason record.
