  1. Most of this topic has focused on the offensive side of the ball what about the defensive side? I wonder how the Steelers are going to be without their longtime DC and starting safety? Thats a lot of leadership turnover on the defensive side of the ball.
  2. and into January and hopfully February.... Go Ravens #1
  3. I.M.H.O. Flacco should have 3 Super Bowl appearances as of right now im just saying = 1. the Lee Evans drop. 2. the super Bowl he has a ring for and 3. Last season I really believe we would have rolled the Colts if we could have held onto 1 of the 2 14 point leads Flacco gave us against the Patriots. Luck might just be more like Manning than people are willing to admit great in the regular season and mediocre at best in the post season.
  4. I dont ever recall Joe throwing a "tantrum" so to speak with his team-mates. Some of the other more popular QB's I have seen them right in the middle of a game chewing out their team-mates. Then when Joe has something to say everyone seems to listen because it just does not happen every day. I read an article on the NFL web-site earlier this week about an O-lineman saying Peyton Manning is not really easy to approach. I really think anyone could approach Joe and talk about things.
  5. Joe is awesome... He is going to do what Joe does. With the leadership the Ravens have on both sides of the ball and them guiding all the young guys this is going to be a very fun an exciting year for the Ravens and us fans just cant wait.
  6. DeAndre, Just take what SSS says to heart he has basically worn the same shoes you are in now and he knows a thing or two about how to prove the nay-sayers wrong and make them eat their words. Your carrer is ahead of you and it's an unwritten book its up to you to write it.
  7. I dont really know how to feel abot Hill and Elam splitting time. I am all for giving Elam a shot but he is going to have to earn it. Hill should be the clear cut starter on tackling ability alone. I know Harbs will start the most deserving guys come reagular season I just dont want to see Hill getting cheated out of his snaps in the off season. We need him at tip-top playing shape both physically and mentally come the regular season and Elam should be on special teams till he shores up his tackling ability. Just my honest opinion.
  8. I think with the veteran leadership on both sides of the ball and this coaching staff the Ravens will have a very exciting year. I think Joe has a lot of weapons around him and I also think compared to the past years these guys the WR's / TE's seem to want it more maybe it's just me but right now the TE position is wide open and the only WR that we know is going to be playing the majority of the down is SSS the #2 WR all the way down to the return guy is wide open. What do I mean by wide open? Guys are penciled in at their position but anything is possible in the next few months. Plus they are all very young.
  9. I think I feel good for Urschel and I hope Williams takes it to heart that even though we did not see it on film someone wrote about it and maybe it will put a chip on his shoulder : )
  10. I hear you. Now is the time for him to show it because I honestly dont think he will get much of a chance if he has not shown some improvement with Lewis and Hill getting most of the snaps.
  11. I am with you on that.
  12. I think Will Hill has found a home with the Ravens. I cant wait to see him playing smashmouth football this season. Hill looks better in purple than he did in blue for sure.
  13. It's your turn Jernigan. You get to write your own story it is all up to you. Now go out and prove any and all nay-sayers wrong and play like a Raven.
  14. SSS is AWESOME. He quickly became one of my favorite players after he came to Baltimore last season. I just hope the firey passion he has rubbs off on some of the younger players. I loved last season when he told the Panthers he was making them look like school yard kids the way he was running all over the field against them. S.Smith SR plays like a Raven and is a positive role model for young people to look up to. Go out and get another 1000 yards this season SSS!!!
  15. Oz always pulls something out. I trust in Oz.
  16. I just cant wait till the season starts.
  17. Stinks for Campanaro I wish him the best and hope it's not serious. Right now someone else will have a shot at getting a leg up on return duties lets see who wants it the most. I just hope the young group of WR's are more hungry than what we have seen in the past. Like the group we had here when Boldin was traded everyone was talking the talk but none of them seemed like they wanted it none of them took hold if the situation and delivered.
  18. Starting to get a "little antzy" ready for some Raven football.
  19. I just think we play in the toughest division in the NFL just my opinion. Not many teams play smashmouth football but in the AFC north all 4 teams play smashmouth football. No game is a gimme game in the AFC north. I dislike the Steelers, Bengals and Browns but I like the fighting spirit they all bring out of the Ravens players and coaches. It is always physical. I wont rank the players because I am very biased and proud towards the Ravens and their players but I know the Steelers, Bengals and Browns have plenty of tallent.
  20. Time for the competition to commence. Lets get it up....
  21. I just want to see the Black uniforms as much as possible this year. Love those uniforms.
  22. Just ask Maxx and see what he likes. Or let Suggs pick it out...
  23. I like Mad Maxx....
