  1. The game should be flexed regardless.
  2. Personal Fouls and PI should be reviewable by coaches.
  3. We put up 6 points. In no way was Clausen better. They might be equally bad, but we could have had Flacco and been dominated by that team with the sorry effort we saw from our defense. We need guys that get after it on defense. Not guys who shut down when someone hits them in the mouth. Maybe Harbaugh and Ozzie do not have a grasp of the talent we need to be successful on defense, but these guys are not going to get it done, and we haven't lost that many guys to injury. If Suggs was our defense, clearly we need more depth.
  4. Ozzie has missed on too many defensive draft picks recently. Matt Elam, Arthur Brown, Mosley (can't cover), Jernigan hans't been near as disruptive as we expected, Upshaw, Sergio Kindle, Terrence Cody, Tavares Gooden. He let Kruger and McPhee walk over the years, yet we need pass rushers desperately.
  5. We were dominated from start to finish. I didn't expect much from the offense with Clausen, but the Defense just let them have everything. We need some BAD dudes on defense. Guys that wreck plays and hit you in the mouth. Our secondary is pathetic. Webb and Wright got smoked almost every play and I doubt Baldwin, Kearse, and Lockett are considered a top WR core. Wilson was able to buy time, but guys were running wide open and he diagnosed each play instantly before he fired a perfect pass to each open WR like it was clockwork. I would draft Defense, Defense, Defense until we find some guys that really get after it. Getting dominated on defense is so much worse than having a bad offense. We need our identity back.
  6. Renner and Clausen should both start a game this year. We need to evaluate these guys in game action. Preseason isn't enough. We know that Schaub is a capable backup, but thats it. I really thought Renner took charge of the huddle in the preseason and showed good leadership.
  7. You should be able to challenge PI's. You can in the CFL. Coaches will not waste challenges because they might need them later and they cost a timeout. More things should be reviewable by coaches.
  8. So in 454 drop backs, there has only been 1 holding penalty called on our opponents. The odds of that are improbable. I think we were victims of the Delfategate "clean-up" efforts in 2015. Brady has to go out on top untarnished. Too bad injuries won't let him get there without an obvious fix in the game.
  9. Billick just burned a twitter troll hard. Officiating makes me want to vomit this year. Every week they seem to out do themselves. But in all honesty, we should handle some of these crappy teams, yet we just play to their level and do not capitalize on PTS. Buck Allen played great, and almost created an extended run play as a receiving threat. Kamar continues to show us he belongs, Butler and Brown also were making plays. If you are a back up you need to be durable, and reliable when you are called upon. Those three guys are keepers. Camp and Marlon can't be trusted.
  10. Defense came to play. Schaub turnovers and lackluster execution in scoring territory cost us that game. I want to see Jimmy Clausen play this season. We know what Schaub is. He is 34 with little room for improvement and not good enough to get it done on a consistent basis. Clausen was a 1st Round pick, with the physical attributes to be a potential star, but has not capitalized. I would rather see that, than a guy with little left.
  11. The injuries have been racking up. I think this is the right move until they can come up with a safer alternative to what we currently have.
  12. I kind of feel bad for Marlon. I hope another team gives him a chance, but I think his time here is probably over as he becomes an RFA at the end of the year. This was his year to prove himself, but he just couldn't get it done. Butler needs more reps. He gets it done on gameday.
  13. Ozzie decided to allow young players to replace franchise staples that left in free agency. In hindsight it makes sense that this team is 4-7, but the improvement and the effort from game to game is nice to see. It is just frustrating that every game has been decided by a TD or less regardless of whether we are playing a top team on the road (Broncos and Cardinals) or a sorry team at home (Browns and Jags). To me that falls a lot on the coaching, this roster clearly has talent to play with the big dogs, yet we can't blow bad teams out. Finish out this season strong and you never know in this weak AFC.
  14. Terrence West needs more carries. I thought he looked quick, and he obviously runs hard to get the extra yards. I think he really has some potential behind this O-Line. And I know he carries a chip on his shoulder for how things were handled in Cleveland. These two guys could be a tandem and we still have Forsett.
  15. Serious quickness on that play. Guys like him and Givens need to touch the ball.
  16. Gotta respect the fight in this team. We looked a hell of a lot better than I thought we could. I thought Buck Allen and Terrance West looked good. The Defensive Line is definitely getting after it more, and you gotta give them props for their improvement. We still can't cover with our big Bama linebackers (Upshaw and Mosley). I thought signing Shareece Wright was a desperate move, but he sure showed some cover skills last night. I still see a lot of guys in the secondary out of position at time and it probably makes sense drafting a CB 1st Round, because we could sure use some more guys who can cover. Corners and Pass Rushers is what this team needs.
  17. Eugene Monroe is not reliable enough to be our "Starting LT". I could see us using our pick on Tunsil. Our strength and conditioning coaches need to be assessed because we have had way too many injuries the last few years. This year is no exception.
  18. Give Darian Stewart Von Miller, Demarcus Ware, and a bunch of other guys who get after it and he will look great. He wasn't a bad solid saftey for us, just not a huge playmaker/TO creator. Replace Tamba Hali, Justin Houston or JJ Watt with the mix match D-Line we had this year and Kendrick Lewis doesn't look the same either. Pass rushers make saftey's and corners look real good.
  19. I bet this game is decided by a TD or less...THANKS TRESTMAN!
  20. If Leremy Tunsil is available in the draft, your wish might come true. I think Monroe will stick with this team in 2016 and Tunsil will replace KO as he heads for a large payday at LG. In 2017 Monroe becomes a cap casualty and Tunsil kicks out to LT.
  21. Our offense along with Trestman plays football from behind, and has no idea how to put a team away with TD's. Our defense really struggled in coverage after the Suggs loss and it took them half a season to settle down, battle through injuries, and generated a decent pass rush. You know McPhee would have been huge to have this year and the into the future. That falls on Ozzie for letting him walk. I like Pees, but our secondary has not played up to the $, and we simply do not know how to play defense in the 2 minute drill. Officiating is clearly out to get us, but we still commit stupid personal fouls to and cause more damage.
  22. I really want to see what this guy can do. Huge frame.
  23. Jeff Fisher and the Rams are coming out with this defensive finger pointing game, when the Ravens never complained about the Rams being dirty. They complained about the officiating and a missed penalty on a play. Fisher is a scumbag. No one cares about the Rams. A "solid" season for the Rams looks the season the Ravens are currently having. Just jealous that he never got it done in Tennessee.
