This move comes less than 24 hours after Flacco heavily criticized the coaching staff for being way too conservative in their lost on Sunday.

Without naming names, Flacco ripped into the conservative coaching philosophy being employed by rookie head coach Vic Fangio, who opted to punt the ball away with 1:48 left on the clock in the fourth quarter from Indianapolis’ 43-yard line.
