If Ben does play, don't think we'll need to blitz to get to him. He shouldn't be his usual extend-the-play-mobile self.

Going to the game Thurs. Hope we're in first when I arrive!!!

" TADA GAN IARRACHT "...........................nothing without effort!

True, but he makes ALOT more if the seats have Raven fans in them.

aaaaaaand here we go with the terrible play selections

This is on the O........yes, D has given up 2 TD's, but the offense hasn't scored a point. If not for the botched punt snap, we'd be down 6-14!

and there it is........down by a point. To the Jets....the JETS!!!!

How can our D play so good, then be out to lunch on one play

lmao

If this thread had been titled " QBs available that you'd rather have than Flacco ", there probably wouldn't have been a single post, lol. Flacco has done some great things since becoming our starting QB. Is he the best? elite? NO. He's a little better than average QB that under some circumstances can steal a win with outstanding play, and has rarely thrown a game away through his own, direct mistakes. I think this first few game funk he's in is partly due to coming back from his injury, multiple injuries to our O-line which has him getting pummeled more than any other QB in the NFL, and bonehead play call from Trestman. I think after the bye and beyond, we'll see a vast improvement from Joe and the O as a whole. So at this point, I'm still behind Joe. Hope he doesn't prove me wrong.

Jet's Henderson also out today for "non-football related" injury/illness.

The Sun's Jeff Zrebiec scouting report for todays game: He gives the edge to Bmore in 4 of his 6 facets of the game, and "even" on the other 2. Then proceeds to predict a Jets win............huh?

You know, I cant remember when we've ever been able to do that. Anyone else? Even when our D was only avg 11 pnts a game, our O wasn't good enough to have the luxury of resting players.

They are pretty much the same style play. To quote My Cousin Vinny, IDENTICAL. ;) best part of that movie?......"..the 2 yoots"

True. But this is a fan forum, and we will have none of that in here! LOL.

IMO, other than OBJ, the second half wasn't bad either. OBJ had 11 yards in the first half (Jimmy in), over 200 in second (Jimmy out)

Yep. And I gladly took those 2 and the Ravens, online for $250!

LOL, the Ravens aren't making any excuses, only the fans. Just as the Steelers don't make excuses, only their fans. As for Harbs and Oz, they've done far better than most NFL teams in the past 8 years, and in some instances, that includes the Steelers.

Yeah, you might as well give up watching them play dude...at least then we wouldn't have to hear all those doom and gloom projection's you've been spouting every day. These Raven's are so horrible that they should just move the team to Vegas, cause they will never be a good team again, never mind they've won two super bowls, that's all in the past and were probably some kind of mysterious flukes anyways... And yeah, might as well try to lose games. That will teach Ozzie and Harbs...unlike those Squeelers, who like you say, never ever complain about anything and are the shining beacons of how a real football team plays! Wow, some people might confuse you with being a fan of theirs, lucky we know better,eh? Don't let fastynart bait you, I'm fairly certain he's a Pitt fan that joined just to troll.

Flacco taking 2 practices off makes sense too me, rather than being "alarming". Rest the injured shoulder to be ready for Sunday rather than throw in practice. In his 9th year, missing a weeks practice shouldn't be a problem. I'm sure he's still at the facility everyday: rehabbing, healing and doing meetings and walk through.

bullet to the head, no doubt.

Yea, pass rush has to come around starting this week. Even the best secondaries can't cover receivers when the QB has 5+ seconds back there.

Smith in first half, OBJ gets 11 yards. Smith out second half, OBJ gets 214 yards. Not saying he alone was the reason, but having him out there sure seams better than not!
