  1. I made a thread about Jimmy Smith after his second year. I was wrong on him. I'm not going to make that same assumption for Elam. I'll give him a third season to see where he falls. If he has a bad 3rd season or regresses then I believe he's a bust. If he gets cut in training camp that'll also answer the question.

    nothing wrong to call out under-performed players; if they are upset, they should work harder and make naysayers eat some crows or just fade away and find another job...

  2. Good Luck to whom takes the Dolphins in next year's GM off-season game. Suh's cap number next year is more than the Franchise Tag for DTs this year. A whopping $27.75M. His total cap for 2015 is only $5.25M, the rest is as follows: 

     

    $5.25 million in 2015

    $27.75 million in 2016

    $14.25 million in 2017

    $21.25 million in 2018

    $23.25 million in 2019

    $22.625 million in 2020

  3. Dick LeBeau is joining the Titans coaching staff as the "assistant head coach/defense" position.

    Patriots Special Teams Coach Scott O'Brien is retiring but will stay with the team in some capacity. Assistant Special teams coach Joe Judge will replace O'Brien.

  4. See, comments like these are what I've been fighting against in this thread. It's one thing to speculate: Maybe if the Patriots hadn't done this, we'd have had a better chance at winning that game. But to say WE SHOULD have won and be facing the Seahawks right now is too far imo.

    I was saying that cuz of our strong momentum carried over game by game.  Our offense was just on fire since day 1 of the playoff and if we won against the Pats, there is no doubt in my mind that Joe will explode with bigger number against the Colts. 

     

    We all speculate but that is how I feel about our team in the post season.

  5. changing rule during the season is something new; oh well, looks like NFL want the Seahawks to win as an punishment for the Pats deflatgate.

     

    We should be playing the Seahawks right now....

  6. If we bolster any spot on our roster significantly in free agency it has to be CB.

     

    We scored plenty against NE, I don't feel like the WR market has anything major for us this year besides resigning Torrey. Guys like Dez, Maclin, and Demaryius will get massive deals with their teams.. Denarius Moore does seem like a possible bargain signing for us though. The kid is plenty talented and hasn't been able to show much playing in Oakland. I think he could do damage in our offense. Eddie Royal is also an interesting option if there is a deal to be had.

     

    My ideal signing would be Chris Culliver or Antonio Cromartie.. I don't think we have a shot at Maxwell. With Jimmy, Webb, Asa coming back healthy and one of those CB signings I think our defense is absolutely scary. We have to build depth at CB and brace for possible injuries next year, it really derailed our SB run this year. I think we should go offense early in the draft and defense for our "big" free agent signing and we'll be in really good shape.

    I do agreed with this; our offense are young and improved; next season they will be the beast after having playoff experience and performance  under their belts...

     

    However, we really need a legit #1 WR; it's either through the draft and FA.

  7. Bengals blocked their DB coach from interviewing for the Broncos DC position.

    Damn classless Bungles....

     

    That makes our organization look even better and attractive to all coaches and players around the league...

     

    It's funny that Ravens are so popular to owners, GMs, and players, but nobody to media and fans.....

  8. I was concerned in his rookie year on plays vs. Jordan Cameron and Cordarelle Patterson, when Elam was playing way deep and tripped over his feet.  He looked scared and panicky, and his interviews are a bit like that, jittery and Bolleresque.  He almost dropped the interception vs. the Lions when it was dropped right in his lap.

     

    The Sun had some quotations by Elam on his benching, where he said he was mad at first and didn't want to be here anymore.  That's a loser's attitude, as if he was playing great and the Ravens conspired against him.  A winner would immediately acknowledge he was badly underperforming and work like crazy to find out what he was doing wrong and fix it.  Cary Williams used to act like that, and Ray Lewis spent a ton of time teaching him the right way to approach things.  I think Elam needs some similar mentoring.

    Cary Williams is a 7th round draft pick and Elam is 1st round pick so that speaks volume about Elam's bust.

     

    Elam is about to secure his bust unless he drops it in 2015, but it seems so far he has maintained the possession of the bust throughout the process....

  9. I think the tackling is 100% the key to his game being so much better. I see Elam in the backfield so often, getting to the quarterback often, getting to a receiver right at the LoS, etc, but he just does not tackle well. I think we started to see him try to wrap up more as the season progressed, but he still wasn't bringing his man down. Hopefully that's something that changes.

    yeah, he needs to tackle like Pollard; straight up smacking the ball carriers' face.....

  10. Jason Garrett has signed a 5-year $30M deal to remain Head Coach of the Cowboys. DC Rod Marinelli is also staying on the coaching staff as well.

    Last I checked Jason Garrett had the Cowboys at 8-8 three years in a row before being one and done in this years playoffs. Yet he's getting $6M a year? Wow Jerry. Harbaugh is making nearly $7M a year for us and at least he earned it. Garrett did nothing to earn $6M a year.

    Matter of fact, we dodged the Garrett's bullet, otherwise Ravens nation would be suffering one and done season......

  11. Wow, he really should've take the Falcons job. I take Joe over Matty Ice, obviously, but Ryan is still a legit franchise QB. Didn't Rex learn from his time with the Jets how hard it is to find a franchise QB? Heck, he should've learned that lesson from his time with US! It took us so long to find Joe and Ozzie is one of the best GMs in the buisness.

    Sure, Rex getting his hands on Mario Williams is scary, but the Bills don't even have a shot at Mariota or Winston in 2015 without a first round pick. So what are the options?  Draft Grayson, Hundley or Petty? Maybe they can trade for Cutler? Ugh.

    I really hope he can turn the Bills around, just because I hate the Pats, but I don't know about this decision.

    I think the Bills defense are going to be a reckon with but their offense will be like the Jets, field goal all day...

     

    I think his best option is going to the Falcons too, but he's still bitter about not getting hired for the first time over Mike Smith..

  12. Rex Ryan going to Buffalo with EJ Manuel/Mark Sanchez (maybe) as his QB. smh  Didn't he just leave a Geno Smith/Mike Vick circus? Not that I'm criticizing but Rex must be hoping to be named Patron Saint of Hopeless Causes. Atlanta or San Fran, if they offered, had to be better options. Will the Bills follow the same 5-yr downdraft Rex guided the Jets to? We don't play the Bills until the 2016 season; we'll see then. Still smh, perhaps Rex had no better offer.

    No body wants him as HC coach; if he looks down to DC, he'll have plenty of offers...
