We%u2019re going to try to figure out how to coach that differently somehow. When the league can explain to us what they want, we%u2019ll get it coached differently,%u201D Not sounding good there coach. He clearly took an extra step after the pass was gone and hit the QB. If you're not coaching about that, than shame on you.

Ozzie should have seen into the future and saw this coming?? "Wizard" is just part of his nickname and not a descriptive title of who he actually is.

He played, I remember one attempt to him. He had his man beat deep and Flacco missed him. They played Jeremy Ross more. I'm guessing Ross being on the practice squad gave him the reps due to him knowing the offense more right now.

The hit on Carr is a very good point. It was VERY late. Coach may have been rather ticked off at him. This may be a punishment, with the hope that it inspires him when he returns to starting.

Pitta is not on the 53 man roster. He is on the Reserve/Physically unable to perform. "A player who finishes the preseason still on the PUP list can then be placed on the regular-season PUP list. Such players must sit out the first six games their team plays. At that point, teams have a five-week window in which to allow the player to begin practicing; from the day the player begins practicing, teams have an additional 21-day window in which to decide whether to activate the player to the 53-man roster. If either of those deadlines pass, the player must remain on the PUP list for the remainder of the season"

Very good question. Why not mention him in this article.

How many times do we see the defense look confused as to who is supposed to be where as the ball is being snapped? To many !! On the back end coverage is being blown for the same reason. One thought the other was supposed to be in that area. This has gone one the last couple seasons.

That is not a far fetched dream. And still possible maybe when Taliaferro returns (dump a RB form the roster). J.J could be the run stopper that we may still need. Keep Upshaw and Dumervil on one side, and Babin and J.J. on the other.

Lets remember it's one year at veteran minimum. If it does not work out, they get rid of him. He spent last year in Rex Ryans system which is similar to what Pees uses as far as schemes and probably terminology. He also attended a training camp this year so he wasn't sitting home for several months not playing. He can play this Sunday if needed, as the other options might have to get up to speed and playing shape.

That's possible with Upshaw, but he goes in and out with Dumervil, who it must be assumed can't set the edge on runs. While missing Suggs for his pass rushing ability stands in the forefront for attention....we are losing an edge setter for the run and if it's always 3rd and 1, due to not stopping the run, then we are in trouble. So IMO we need a run stopper just as bad, and putting Upshaw in Suggs place opens the other side. I'm sure the coaches are more aware of that than I am, I'm curious how the deal with it.

He's currently showing up on the practice squad roster.

Me too.....

That was my thought also.

She mentioned last week that most of the staff was off this week. So the articles we are getting this week probably are all pre written.

They're not just going to hand it to him. He has to earn it. This time last year C.J. Mosley was not listed as a starter. He earned it during camp and preseason. This time last year Josh Bynes was considered the starter. It's just not Harbaughs style to call a rookie the starter this time of the year.

Sarah must actually be "late for work" today.

This is Ozzie and The Ravens sticking to their word. The best pick available. There was not a tackle worthy of the 17th pick avaialable. Ha Ha Dix would have been a good choice, but Mosely is an excellent choice FOR THE FUTURE, not just this year. We need a MLB to be a leader in this defense. Smith is really only here for one, maybe two seasons. Three years from now, this choice will look brilliant.
