before we get the receiver, give me a OC that can design a play to get him open! but honestly what I would love more than anything is to get a randall cobb on this team and have them be bff's like joe and pitta and get them on the same page, teams blitz the hell out of us, so get us a playmaking slot receiver like cobb, call that hot route and abuse the blitz. I also would like to see someone who gets open for joe when the play breaks downs and joe has to leave the pocket, don't just continue your route because obviously the play is compromised, run with joe and make it easier on him(see: santonio holmes and big ben) we just need a sure handed guy that is athletic enough to create separation in traffic, and sit in the soft spots in zone coverage, and stay on the same page as our qb. and when he delivers you a perfect ball, HOLD ON TO IT! that's what I want in a receiver, we got the burner and a big body receiver(though kinda soft) and a TE that can do similar things to what I named, but that TE isn't as athletic as welker or cobb or Edelman, and that's the mold of a receiver that is missing from this team.

sadly, i see us keeping Caldwell another year. and kubiak is a strictly ZBS coach and it is clear that our o-line is not made for that, and i would prefer the complete scrapping of the ZBS over a complete o-line rehaul. we need a new center, and maybe a new RT, but more importantly, we need a new gameplan, and kubiak doesn't exactly offer that. i like chudzinski, i think he is what joe flacco has been missing ever since he matured and cam began holding him back. we still are an explosive offense, with a gutsy, strong armed qb, and explosive receivers, and chud is one of those OC's that can draw up a route tree to get the ball in our playmakers hands, unlike cam nd Caldwell. if you can make the nfl world think your offense can compete with brian hoyer at qb, then youre doing something right.

your avatar fits this argument perfectly

his left hand isnt on his wrist... what a odd sight!

im in the minority but ive ALWAYS wanted so bad for the ravens to wear those unis with the frontside of the bird face instead of the winged shield for just 1 game a season as a "where we came from" type of thing. and that would also mean that these jerseys would be for sale, and you bet ur boots id buy one. the overall uniform is bad(mostly because of the black pants with the massive white stripe) but i do, and always have, loved those jerseys. as a every week thing? no sir, its way too typical 90's maximalist style, and it should stay there, but as a memories thing, it would be a nice addition to our fan experience to have a throwback game every year

born in baltimore, lakeland(between brooklyn and arbutus) moved to pasadena at a young age, consider "the dena" my true hometown regardless of where i was born. pasadena is ravens country, 12 months a year people got ravens flags on their car windows and ravens lawn decorations, and every sunday or monday between september and february, over half of the town is wearing some form of ravens gear. love this place during football season, its got a energy about it

crabtree is a possession receiver, he doesn't have high end speed but hes big and tough with sure hands and decent route running, strong comparison.. tj housh, just like we had that year.

san fran is the same team we were a few years ago. dominant defense, young and promising qb, top 3 rb, top tier tight end, and a boatload of possession receivers with no speed. ill bet their season turns out like ours did too, wild card, loss in the divisional round to seattle, just like we lost to pitt 3 years ago. im calling it!
