    When Baltimore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome walks through the locker room past Joe Flacco, other players start up a chant: "Pay the man, pay the man."

    No worries: Flacco will be getting paid.

    The question is, by which team?

    Yet Flacco's expiring contract doesn't seem to concern anyone with the Ravens, including the quarterback himself.

    Flacco practically shrugged Thursday when asked about potentially being a free agent after the Ravens play the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.

    "It's real simple," said Flacco, who made $6.76 million this year in the final season of his rookie contract. "We didn't agree on a number and I didn't really care to discuss it any further once it got to that point. Bottom line is I'm not the guy going up into their offices and negotiating with them every day anyways. It was really never a concern of mine and I never really thought about it. Even in the offseason, when you think about it a little bit, they are really all good thoughts.

    "It's a good problem to have and to be talking about."
