one of 2 things that couldnt happen to this or else we would be screwed... happened. i hope kubiak can SERIOUSLY dial up that run game and our defense can keep a lead, because with james hurst at LT our passing game doesnt stand a chance, especially with no pitta.
well pardon me, i didnt pay as much attention in the preseason as i usually do so i didnt see it first hand, but i didnt hear very good things on these boards about hurst. and my comment on the run game wasnt about hursts run blocking ability, it was more about how dominant our right side has been and how important it is for kubiak to play to that strength
Give the young man a chance. He may surprise us and hold his own.
Hurst actually played well as a pass blocker and steadily improved in each and every game. As a run blocker.... well... he's a body
in my personal opinion, dean pees was absolutely brilliant in dialing up coverages and 4 man rushes against the steelers, he let jimmy do his thing on brown, sent the 4 man rush, and let our LB's and DB's plug every possible throwing lane, who wouldve thought playing conservative defense would be such a ballsy move
ive always liked pees and i think he is brilliant for what we have on our team right now, rex or chuck are probably 2 of the top 3 DC's in the league but im not so sure they would fit our roster
I don't know, ravensdfan, I'd call a top five red zone and top 5 third down defense successful...
I don't call the lopsided TOP in Week 1 successful. I don't call no TOs, no QB pressure, no sacks, successful. I don't call the other team scoring on 5 of 6 drives successful. Which is where the reliance on TOs comes in.
i wonder who is going to be the first player on IR because of a hangnail or a scraped knee, so far our entire IR is actually injured, a rare feat for the ravens.
Butler did on fact have an AC injury
He's got air conditioner problems?
No, alternating current
brandon merriweather is the type of person that caused goodell to make these helmet rules that we complain about. this guy needs to be out of the league, period, he has shown repeatedly that he is nothing but a hazard to the players around him, he doesnt know how to get low, doesnt care about form, doesnt use his arms or shoulders, he just launches his helmet at opponents heads and hopes it works. he needs to be gone from this league.
Merriweather is just a poor player. You're right in that he cannot tackle, he just launches. The hit on Torrey was atrocious but it's just the latest example of disregard for other players. He's been suspended and fined before, time to up the ante.
Well maybe you'll be happy to know he has been suspended for 2 games for the hit on Torrey.
very happy to hear it lol.
i apologize everyone for any overly emotional posts i may have made tonight, im a little inebriated, all posts were well thought out, but not well felt out.
SMH bodybag day in camp. this is ridiculous and something isnt right, niners must be practicing dirty out there or something because they havent had any injuries while we may have just lost 2 starters for the season.
thank baby jesus. lets hope it doesnt linger and that webb gets back out there
I really feel aweful about KLM...

my elam jersey didnt make it in time, so im stuck with a T shirt in myrtle beach for the preseason opener. talking to local panthers fans ive noticed theyre pretty salty about smitty being on another team lolololol
Didn't make it to the bar.....too much beach. Beer goes down at an alarming rate on the beach.
haha yea i was downing them at a dangerous pace, and it turns out backfinz closed down last summer, i called the backfinz in wake forest by accident because i was driving everywhere trying to find it and they told me
elam jersey on the way, gonna represent in back finz in myrtle beach for the niners game
just checked and it's 6 min. from our place. May see you there.
I'm sure you will. I'll be the young dude in the white Elam jersey drinking draft all night lol
This rain sucks. Oh well.........
any south carolina ravens fans on here? ill be in myrtle beach during the first preseason game and i would really love to watch it
i am slightly warming up to the mosley pick. still wondering what in gods name are we gonna about FS though.. i guess oz will pull another late july bargain on a "washed up" guy and get 2 or 3 solid years out of him, seems to be his forte when he has a hole on the roster
i am the danger, i am the one who knocks.
^ Buzz Killington ladies and gentlemen.
who invited this guy anyway..
anytime bloodraven
