  1. Congratulations to Peyton & the Broncos. Now do the right thing Peyton and ride off into the sunset on top.

  2. From Peyton/Osweiller to Mark Sanchez? That's a Cleveland Brown's style downgrade.

  3. Happy to see status updates back where they belong. Glad Flacco & Ravens came to an agreement.

  4. I am truly saddened to hear of Tray Walker's passing. My heart breaks for his family & friends.

  5. Keep checking for updates on Walker. Hope he is alright.

  6. Not impressed with the new format. Argh. Ain't broke don't fix it!

  7. Not impressed with the new format. Responses are going into places not intended - difficult to distinguish status updates from actual posts on the sidebar. Argh. Ain't broke don't fix it!

  8. Our last draft together, fellow flock members. Bittersweet.

     

    Yay! It's the draft!

    Boo! Gone soon will be these boards.

  9. Surprised @Peyton retiring a Bronco.

      just about all of them was drafted way before the Ravens were on the clock in the draft but i can't wait too see Micheal Campanaro play against the Miami

      Most of them but not all of them. I've liked what I've seen from Camp so far but still not going to be that guy we're missing.

      Just frustrating more than anything to watch every other team manage to snag one while we just, don't. Like, even try lol

      I think if Micheal Campanaro was healthy then he would probably be in the same conversation as the other rookie talented receivers. I hated that we didn't draft a receiver earlier but i definitely understand why

      Such a shame that a team led by a top 3 head coach in John Harbaugh would have this problem.

      We're approaching an offseason where a lot of tough questions have to be answered along with tough decisions having to be made.

  11. *sigh* Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. Can we manage to not have an arrest for the next 10 days? Good grief.

      Hopefully at TC the players will be too busy for this kind of garbage.

      Well, display name, all the arrests have been outside Maryland, except for Smith's, and all occurred during a break in training, so I'd imagine this trend ends.

      I'm hoping they're too exhausted for shenanigans during TC.

  12. 29th verus the pass. But by all means let's praise Pees & talk about what a great job he's doing with our secondary. smh

  13. 9/10/14:Carolina Panther Greg Hardy was found guilty Tuesday night of assaulting his former girlfriend and threatening to kill her. I await swift & harsh punishment. Why have the Panthers not released him yet?

      FYI, he wasn't found guilty last night. Last I heard his case was in November or something.

      Life isn't fair. Rice was caught on video and was handled incorrectly.

    3. RavensAllTheWay

      RavensAllTheWay

      I think he was found guilty in July, but has appealed. He'll have his appeal heard in November, I believe.

      ravensdfan

      Okay gotcha. Just goes to show you can't trust the internet news - article was dated 9/10 - even went back and checked! Was still found guilty though and nothing was done.

  14. AFCN all lose Week 1. We are no worse off than before Thursday's thromping. In fact, we are better off. We've seen our weaknesses and clearly, the FO is taking steps to address them. Everyone calm down.

      Absolutely it would have served us well to get a game up. Still, we are not trailing anyone in our division. We are no worse off.

      We lost to Denver. They lost to Tennessee, Miami & Chicago. 'Nuff said.

      Chicago's a dangerous team!

  15. After 3 years of 2 part-time jobs, I've finally managed a full time gig. Now I will get to watch all the games live from start to end. I'm excited!

      @Willbacker Yep pretty much every Sunday - it did stink!

      @The Raven Thanks! I can't wait to start!

      Welcome to the club of those of us who get to watch the games LIVE! There goes the neighborhood! Smh! LOL!!!!!

      You ain't kidding. I'll be in the game thread going nuts! LOL

  16. After some research, I'm warming up to T. Brooks - not saying he's the next Ed Reed or anything crazy - just warming up to him.

      He's my favorite of this year's draft picks. I think he's going to be a baller.

    3. ravensdfan

      ravensdfan

      @Mili I think he'll get the playing time but I hear you though. No playing time until year 3 - then gone in FA. Not really getting our traction out of our rookies that way. I agree there is only one Reed & Lewis - but they can be Reed-like and Lewis-like right? :)

      @Ed_Reed20 I hope you're right. I wasn't crazy about this pick but the more I read & see - the more I think my initial assessment was incorrect. (cuz I'm never actually wrong :) j/k)

    4. Militant X 1

      Militant X 1

      I absolutely agree that they can be "Ray and Ed-like" as long as they are coached up and allowed to get on the field and learn from their mistakes. As far as Brooks? This kid is a beast! He gave my VT Hokies fits. Lol! I'd love to see him and Elam on the backend of our defense.

  17. After talking to everyone, don't understand the Trestman hire over Gase. Plus, Dalton named to pro bowl and not Flacco???? Ridiculous.

      Flacco was named, but turned it down.

  18. Alright, over it. Congrats to the O's, AL Eastern Division Champs. Let's go beat Atlanta, Ravens!

      Wish we were playing KC Chiefs as a revenge game would be great

  19. Alright, so last year the Steelers finished above us in the Division, neither of us made the playoffs and they picked before us. This year they won the freakin' Division and are STILL picking before us. Somewhere it isn't right lol

      that's what happens when you beat the snot out of them in the playoffs!

    3. Rants N Ravens

      Rants N Ravens

      Last year they picked ahead of us because of a terrible rule that says if two teams finish with the same record, the tie breaker is strength of schedule.

      This year it's because we kicked their butts and went further in the playoffs. I'm much more OK with them picking ahead of us this year. ;)

    4. RavensFanMania

      RavensFanMania

      I'm also ok with the strength of schedule rule if the teams hadn't played one another. However, if the teams played each other they should use head to head as the barometer.

  20. Always miss football, but for some reason this off season is worse. Been hitting up vids of the Ravens to curb my withdrawal!

    1. beanfigger

      beanfigger

      Probably because it started way too early this year.

  21. And Cincy gets a tie! A loss would be better but a tie helps!

    1. stampedehero

      stampedehero

      A Cleveland win over the Steelers tops that hand

  22. As long as Pees is here we're going to be what we are, a horrible defense. So we better start showing the offense some love with those high draft picks if we expect them to score 40 or more every game.

    1. stampedehero

      stampedehero

      The GM links himself to good D. We were known for it one time.

  23. At the risk of appearing stupid, can anyone explain to me how the Steelers finish 2nd to our 3rd in the division and pick ahead of us in the draft?

      Maybe Tomlin's 'mistake' can help us come draft time?

      ravensdfan

      Maybe berad, maybe! I hope so!

      allblackraven

      Unfortunately, Tomlin's cheat would only get us ahead in the order in one of the late rounds. If they strip them of a pick.
