Rave-O

The next worse news will be he doesn't need surgery it just needs to heel. Another lost season!

This article is a little bit premature lets wait to he gets on the field before we say he is ready to go and not a wasted pick.

I am so ticked off about Ed going anywhere but here to coach. This is only because Harbaugh would not want him here. Ed went to Buffalo because of Rex, he did not come to Baltimore because of Harbaugh!

The skins r not an enemy Eisenberg.

For sure how can there not be a third option! I can only root for one of these bums if they are playing the Pats!

I agree but what does that say about Pees nobody ever wants him.

What happened to loosing teams getting an easy schedule? Looks like the league is sticking it to us again. We should get Pats and Cowboys at home and go on road to Skins and Eagles they are almost home games anyway.

I agree with you! If we are not going to make the playoffs why rebound? I would much rather have very high draft picks. The only 2 games left I want us to win are the Steelers and Bengals games b/c of the rivalry. High draft picks are more important than a widow dressing record.

Don't forget Big Ben also renegotiated so its not just Brady.

Oh Ok, so the 'cost' you talk about is in terms of wins and losses not monetary cost. Well I guess an argument can be made on both sides of this regarding wins and losses. That could largely depend on who Ravens draft or what free agent they bring in. Seattle won early with young R. Wilson and the Ravens themseleves were a playoff team with a rookie Flacco and Denver did not do bad signing Manning, so this thinking that we have to have Joe no matter what the cost (monetary) is not true. If Joe was the kind of QB that could carry a team then maybe but Joe has to have real good players around him to succeed and in order to get that he needs to renegotiate that huge contract.

@mcjacket23, not sure I agree with you on this so can you explain why you say that.

Okay if you don't want to blame Pees just consider this...the Ravens loose to a 1-3 Browns team at home and McCown throws for 457yds. Enough said.

100% correct! Pees has been horrible from his 1st season here why don't peple see that?? He has to go he has destroyed the Ravens reputation on defense.

No disrespect but comments like this is why the Pees is still here and the fans are pointing the finger at the FO instead of Pees unbielievable! The Ravens give up 4th quarter leads in 4 of 5 losses and people still don't blame Pees what is it going to take?!!

Well I guess you still can't be critical of Joe and not get negged. At any rate we all know what 'playoff Joe' can do, at this critical point in the season 'playoff Joe' needs to show up now or the season is over.

Flacco is at his best in play action, but in order for that to work you need to run the ball. Joe had the best year of his career last year under Kubiak b/c his offense was perfect for Joe...run 1st then play action pass.

Ravens have more injuries than anyone in the league what is with that? Its time to look at the strength and conditioning coach something has to change maybe the culture of working out or fitness this is just too much.

Really like this kid hope he can bulk up or just strengthen his body he can be a difference maker.

With the season on the line the team did not come out with a sense of urgency. Even facing an old back up QB the only reason we won the game was Pitts bad coaching decisions and horrible kicker. Trestman has to learn that he needs to have a run 1st offense, Joe is not Manning or Brady he needs a strong running game. As for Pees...he needs to jump off a tall bridge (just joking) but he has got to go.

Sorry I have to disagree with you there, this team has a lot of talent more than most teams in fact. There is a reason why the Ravens were preseason favorites to make the playoffs and have a legit shot at going to the Super Bowl, Peter King even ranked them #1. The Ravens have talent and anybody saying Ozzie has 'lost it ' really isn't paying attention and repeating rhetoric they hear from the radio or some people on this board.

Pees ruled out?

@Billy D great post. I have looked at those numbers before my self more fans should before they talk about the problem being the players fault. Pees was 'vanilla' as soon as he got here it was noticeable immediately. I remember when Pees would have the linebackers playing 10yds off the line of scrimmage! Now he has the CB's playing 10yds back. I think Pees just doesn't like the line of scrimmage.

Dean Pees is worse D coordinator Ravens have ever had, worse than Neuheisel and Matteson! Just go back and look at how the defense ranking has dropped in the yrs since he has been here. Harbs is funny talking the "Ravens defense" Pees killed that yrs ago.

Uhmm...yeah but we are Ravens like not bears like.

C-mon Ryan Mink you could have come up with a better headline than that! How did all those weapons workout for Tretsman in Chi-town? Not smart.
