How is Wright, a guy off the streets, even on the field covering two WR's who helped us win a Super Bowl in their revenge game??? Btw we helped put ourselves in this position defensively by waiving Melvin after one bad game, who should have never been there, and he was claimed off waivers by the Pats. Then Will Davis got hurt and had to go on IR. Apparently Tray Walker isn't ready for the task either? You have such little confidence that you can't throw him into a an emergency situation to play nickel. Charles James may have even been a better option. Wright has proven that he can't play in the league. The 9ers signed Wright initially to be one of their starting corners, but his preseason play was so poor he never dressed for them. And apparently when he was no longer getting opportunities in SF he badmouthed the team and demanded to be traded. Sound like a player we want to avoid at all costs.

That is where I am at. This team stands 0 chance against a playoff caliber QB and Teams. What's sad is the defense is so bad it is overshadowing how mediocre and unclutch our offense has been against poor defenses.

This is gold.

SSR deserves to play on a team with some heart. This team doesn't even have a pulse. Joey Bosa or bust.

Are we trying to lose out for Bosa? I traveled to SF for the game, and I simply see a team that doesn't care about winning enough. Outside of Steve Smith who is on his last leg playing his heart out, who do you see brining their all and playing with passion? We have 0 leadership on defense. We are missing the vocal leaders that rally the troops to make those important stops and get our offense back on the field. We used to have a slow to start inconsistent offense who could get away with 2 field goals in the first half because our defense would hold teams in check and make stops when it mattered. We no longer have that luxury, and with the defense that we put on the field, our offense must be efficient, and score TD's. They can't go on 2 quarter droughts and expect to win. Pees and the Secondary coach, have to go. I honestly think we should draft the top rated pass rushers available our first two rounds of this draft. Without Mchphee and Suggs, Dumervil is the only one who can get after it, but he needs to play less snaps to be at his best late in games. Shoot, if we get the No.1 pick we struck 1st Round gold because Goff will go for 2 extra first rounders. Maybe that is the plan...

Trust me, not all the guys on IR are out for the year. Some guys probably would have only missed a few weeks. It is a way for Ozzie to hang on to guys while clearing space for their replacements.

Explain all the roster moves and mid season trade then...

No need to reach in a trade before the offseason, this defense is done and we stand no chance against the top Qbs in the league. Just emphasize coaching and performance. The guys who are not getting it done have got to go. Draft a Pass Rusher with your first round pick. Continue to build up the O-Line, and figure out what you are going to do with Flacco's contract.

Josh McCown threw for 457 YARDS. The defense blew 2 4th quarter leads and gave up the final score in OT. We make mediocre QB's look like hall of famers. Something has to change on defense. We are getting exposed because our scheme allows WR's to run free, we can't get to the passer, and our DB's are not as good as we thought they were. Dean Pees hurts

Draft pass rushers, and then some more pass rushers. We also need a coverage linebacker to replace Mosley on 3rd Down. He is a liability against Backs and TE's. Sign Veteran WR's who are hungry.

We haven't won the close ones. Not even half way through the season, our season is ending with a draft pick in mind. It should be more obvious than ever that we desperately lack pass rushers and that our defensive coordinator might be working for someone in vegas. Our schedule, is actually pretty easy from here on out after we play AZ. But if you can't win at home against a sorry browns team who you were physically dominating in the first half, you probably don't stand a chance at making the playoffs.

People have been talking trade rumors for WR's recently. What about Cordarelle Patterson? He could be the kick returner, and deep threat we are looking for until Perriman gets back. He is isn't even being used in minnesota and you would have to think the GM would like to get something for him before his contract expires.

Just throwing it out there. There are 5 teams that had to start the season with 3 of 4 on the road. The Chiefs 1-3, Ravens 1-3, Eagles 1-3, Dolphins 1-3, Lions 0-4.

Vincent Jackson would make a lot of sense, but i just looked at his contract and he is making 12 Million a year.

Andre Roberts would be awful. Eddie Royal the bears just signed and had a significant role in their last game. Ricardo Lockette wouldn't make an impact. We need a proven WR. If we want to take this season seriously we should deal a 3rd Round Pick for someone who we could sign and move forward with if Steve Smith is retiring in 2016.

Givens is probably better than Brown. He should get some looks in the passing game, especially since he can do something after the catch.

Forsett is our every down back that needs to be fed (20 touches a game). Taliaferro, and should only be used in short yardage, and Allen should give Forsett a breather from time to time. Forsett has the best vision, patience, and ability to make guys miss. Stop playing running back roulette and let him get into a rhythm. Same with our O-Line, they need to get into a rhythm and in the 2nd half is when we can wear teams out.

I think the defense deserves more credit than they are receiving. Our offense, and play calling was putting the defense in really bad spots, especially with the turnovers and how many times we didn't convert on 4th down, that they were able to hold it together. Even the Leveon TD run, should have no doubt ended in a FG after watching all of the obvious holding on the play. I saw a great team effort defensively, but I will never understand why our corners would play 15 yds off the ball on 1st and 10. You are pretty much saying here is another first down Pittsburgh. If we could figure that out, there might be more hope for this unit.

That Leveon TD run just proves how inept the refs are. I remember seeing it live and I saw 3 different occasions where they could have called holding on the play and didn't. Tucker is the most important free agent and needs to get paid. He is vastly underrated. We finally got our underdog back which this team thrives on. Let's get healthy for Cleveland. Go Ravens!

You gotta give props to the hated bunch of WR's that stepped up, Forsett, and the Defense. If this game was lost you could have looked at Flacco and his turnovers as well as Trestman. How many times can you show run against a defense playing to stop the run, and run the ball up the middle? When is the play action pass coming to the TE? But at the end of the day, we needed to walk away with a win and that is what happened. It was a gritty effort and once again Tucker with ice in his veins proved his worth. He is the most important free agent IMO. Great kickers are so undervalued, give him top money and be happy we have a guy we can always rely on in close games. PS: kick the field goal and take the points every time we are in FG range. GO RAVENS!.

We would still be relying on unproven guys to play WR3 and have no one to replace Smith when he retires. All of the guys I mentioned would be upgrades at an affordable price. Never once did I mention Kenny Britt, and I think he has proven that he can't be relied on, unlike the guys I did mention. Do you honestly think Kamar Aiken, who bounced around the league, and Marlon Brown, who has never stepped up past what we saw in his rookie year will develop into stars? I would rather have a cheap proven vet with gas left in the tank at WR 2.

I want to see a full game with camp playing WR2. Aiken in the slot. I think the constant rotation doesn't allow Flacco get into a rhythm with his guys.

The purpose of the comment is aimed towards the future of the team. Not the present. We are not in a position where we can make moves for a WR, unless we are willing to give up a high draft pick which u know Ozzie won't do. The Bears can always franchise Alshon. They were dumping defensive players who didn't fit their new 3-4 defense. We should address the WR position through free agency with proven vets. Not in house developmental guys like Brown, Aiken, Camp. I was providing information on the type of guys that are available through free agency and the price they are available for. Sorry your dreams are crashing right now...

Steve Smith is retiring this year. We have had success signing proven veteran WR's (Mason, Boldin, Smith) and very poor results drafting WR's in the past. (Torrey was the only one worth his draft pick and never developed into a No 1. Drafting Perriman makes sense, because there is high upside, and for us to sign a veteran with his physical ability we would have to give up a huge contract. Now that we know Aiken, Brown will not develop into anything more than solid role players, we should decide the most cost effective way to address the position. Think if we signed Stevie Johnson 3YR/10.5M, Brian Hartline 2YR/6M, Percy Harvin 1YR/6M, Cecil Shorts 2YR/6M, Nate Washington 1YR/1M. These guys might not be dominant WR's, but they can be relied upon to get open and make plays unlike Brown and Aiken. I think we need a 2 solid Vet's to replace Smith, because you can't rely on Perriman to do everything himself after this year. Shoot, Santana Moss would be worth having on this team right now. I'm done believing we can develop WR's into starters. We never have, and most teams do have that ability. The only WR's worth drafting must be incredibly fast. Look at the Steelers recipe, because they sure have done a better job than us in that department.

Pees and the secondary coach are much to blame as these guys were out of position the ENTIRE game. Give a guy some help after he continues to get beat.
