    Maybe I'm alone here but I haven't lost any respect for the Ravens but rather their media team who decided this. It's not like Steve, Ozzie and John decided to close this forum after their meeting in FL.  This is a Media Department decision likely from the team deciding they want to shift focus to more popular avenues.  I can't blame them but I do personally disagree with their stance and think it's a poor decision to remove the forums rather than keep them at a limited capacity. 

    I think it comes back to the promotions the team runs through its social media avenues, such as the contest to guess the 53, or other stuff like that. It's really minor in my opinion but who knows what kind of resources go into this place. I just don't understand why you'd want to take away a means fans use to connect. That seems foolish. 

    All of them are at fault. Well, more so on the Mr. Biscotti side. It just comes back down to money. It cost to host a server and forum and this is a cost saving measure to help along the bottom line. They know most people will be upset in the end, but overall will continue to support the team and get over it. Chat boards like these are a dying breed in Generation Social Media. I'm going to miss this forum and some of the talks I've seen and had here albeit small.

  2. This is lame, Ravens. This is very lame. Gonna miss it, but I see you want to keep up with the times with Facespace and Twittar. Since this will be my last time posting most likely, and if you decide to archive the board, I'll leave with this...

     

    JOE FLACCO IS THE GOAT!

    ED REED IS THE GREATEST SAFETY OF ALL-TIME!

  3. The front office cannot evaluate/draft a wide receiver. They may as well just stop drafting them and wasting the picks. I count 10 in the last 6 years, with only Torrey being productive one out of them all to date. Seek a low cost free agent who is not over 30. I would put that low on the list, because Flacco will just ignore them to check down regardless. You can stick anyone at WR to not get thrown to.

    They have passed on solid and productive CB's the past 3 years at least and would rather stock pile a 7th DT to ride the bench than a starting CB. Dont ask me the wisdom on that philosophy. I think they have needed at least 1 or more because the pass rush is non existent. I would frankly go multiple OLB who can rush (not defensive ends), CB and interior OL. Draft at least 2 of each or acquire a quality starter via free agency.

    We do not need RB, TE, ILB, DT, DE, WR. No need to have 9 guys at one position when others are thin. For that reason, I never enjoy the draft selections made by the ravens and the "best player" idea.

    Ravens haven't taken the "Best Player Available" in almost 10 years. Don't let them set you up for the trap. Ravens need Pass Rushers and O-line help. Those should be the priorities this year.

  4. Man, Venom Brady felt a real human chill go up his spine when he saw that The Mighty Flacco was up next. New England know what it is already. Flacco gonna go up there, eat their chowder, sleep in their beds and finesse their lady friends. :D

    28-24 Ravens

    Just curious: does anyone think that Bill Callahan could be a viable choice? Getting rid of Castillo would be a bonus.

    Nah, I believe the game has passed him as well. But getting rid of Castillo is always a bonus as you said. I don't think there is anyone out there that can effectively run the WCO as Kubes did for us, and we should return to the Air Coryell. I think Norv would be a good fit here for the Ravens. Though he is older, I think he could thrive the way we play football.
