Our O-line has played extremely well this past month. Keeping them together by resigning Wagner is the best move in my opinion. Also, if we lose Williams, we likely get a 3rd round comp pick for him. Given his likely price tag, I doubt he stays, unfortunately.
18 hours ago, RedFire said:Colts, Pats, Ravens, Steelers, and Broncos. Only 5 teams in 16 years!
Let's get a grip and realize that since 2000...in the AFC only the pats have more Superbowl trophies than the Ravens. Yes, I feel 2006 and 2014 were ours for the taking as well....but a broken-down Air McNair (RIP) and a cheating (not giving us time to sub, barely declaring eligible receivers and deflated balls) pats team cut those seasons short.
Just saying that we have been a fortunate organization during the Billick and Harbaugh eras considering we had to withstand two of the best ever in Brady and Manning both being in the AFC. And also having to deal with another Hall of Famer in Big Ben. The fact that the Ravens have had success at the highest level is amazing considering the last 16 years have been unprecedented in NFL HISTORY in terms of the AFC having 3 of the best QB's in NFL history playing at the same time!
Let's remember to give the Ravens Organization their just due! we weathered a severe storm....
2006 was so tough for me. I really think that was one of the best defenses of all time. I'd add 2011 to that too, we would've steamrolled the Giants if it weren't for Evans/Cundiff. If we had Jimmy in 2014 I think we would've won the SB then too. Oh well, at least we have 2012
http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/top-graded-baltimore-ravens-from-week-16-vs-pittsburgh-steelers/ This article featuring the ratings from Pro Football Focus is wroth reading. Shows how well Flacco and the O-line played. Also comes to the conclusion that everyone else reached: we had no pass rush and we need to find one. Powers actually graded well. I think the issue was more with our pass rush then our coverage (besides Wright who sucked)
I'd like to win this one. Sweeping a division rival is nice, plus I'd rather this team finish as a winning one rather than a .500 team. And after last week, I'd like us to go into the offseason with some positive energy. That said, like many of you have already made a point of, I think we should really run our young guys, and rest our injured ones.
Give Suggs, Yanda, Wagner, and Jimmy the day off.
Start Alex Lewis at RT.
Throw tons of balls to Perriman, Moore, Waller, and Boyle.
Give Buck some carries.
Sit Doom. Give Pierce and Judon a lot of time on D. Make Zadarius active for this one too
Launch a deep one to SSS to send him off to retirement in style

You forgot Canady at CB. Also, do Bowser and Tim Williams play the same position? I don't know much about them
