Yeah he seems to be ruffling a lot of feathers , esp with the Rbs ..I think he's the one who got Dixon hurt- got into a scuffle with buck Allen and also leveled juice yesterday. Can't say for sure bc obviously I'm just speculating but he seems to have an attitude problem..I know alot of tempers can flare in the heat when the pads Come on with that many guys goin at it but we need our players looking out for one another.

How does any of that say he has an attitude problem? If he plays physical and someone else gets upset that's not a problem at all.

Has Campanero physic change this year?

Im not optimistic about him being reliable to stay on the roster unless something drastic happened with his conditioning.   

He doesnt have the body to get hit on the field.

How would his physique play a factor in the injuries he's had?

Even if Suggs lost a bit I expect early on he'll draw double teams off reputation alone. That will help others to draw only one on ones and I think the defense has the talent to beat one on ones all day. 

I'll over hype the hell outta this but I can see the team generating a lot of pressure from various rushers.

"you just dismiss them" 

That's because... *drumrolll*

We didn't cheat!

It's actually because no matter how much people Fuss and moan no championship has been revoked. 

Too early but I'll go with Correa. If he's as versatile as we are reading that he is I see him making plays from all over the field 

Pitta wasn't injured due to a hit so I never doubted his reaction to contact. It's the jukes and the cuts that had/have me paranoid.

Sorry, I'm not getting the analogy. 

Sf fans talk about bs officiating they talk about the punch the kr etc yet as Ravens fans we dismiss it as them being bitter. You really don't think we'd be the same way if we were patriot fans?

Wut?  How is it that the Ravens cheated to win 2012 SB? 

Read the first part again. 

Your reply also proves my point.  The reply to sf fans when they Fuss and whine about that game. Is simply to dismiss them.  We'd do the same if we were pats fans.

This is another area that we disagree. 

The faithful insist it's fruitless to identify and discuss our Front Office's transgressions.  My view on the other hand is that the sooner fans understand the degree of malfeasance that we have been experiencing and the more those misdeeds are discussed, the sooner the discontent will percolate universally to the surface and the faster the inevitable change will occur to the benefit of the Baltimore Ravens.

Besides, if you didn't know by now, I have a degree of the "Spidey Sense" and it tells me otherwise.

 

He said the FO isn't worried about what posters here think about players and when it comes to evaluation of talent and determination of pay they do not.  We are no names posters with no verifiable credentials making our opinions public on a mb.  Nothing in that says that anyone here is worth listening to in regards to what players need to be signed and for what pay.   Being an anonymous message board poster there's no real accountability in your assessments being wrong which leads itself to people being able to make asinine claims and absurd predictions about which players will and won't pan out.

Where did anyone see reported that we only offered the vet minimum?  Despite all the posts saying that, I never saw it reported nor did I ever assume that to be the case.  I would expect an injury waiver to be attached to a larger, guaranteed, contract.

Pretty much. A one yr vet minimum just doesn't seem likely to draw that much concern from the FO.

Problem there is we don't know the true extent of the cheating and how his teams would have performed without that help. I think it's pretty much a guarantee that the instances where they've been caught are not isolated and there are many transgressions that will never be known. 

Honestly how many here would really care that others view the Ravens as cheaters?

There are Niners fans who whine and complain about the 2012 sb. Do you really care or do you dismiss it as them upset because the Ravens won?

Both sides are being dumb. Bosa is obvious why, but the last thing the 4-12 Chargers need to do is make enemies with him, especially over something so small. In a year from now no one will even remember this though, most likely.

You don't think agents will remember which teams give in to demands?

2 minutes ago, -Truth- said:

I sincerely doubt that Bosa knows he's going to bust and is attempting to make the most he can off of his first contract. That's a significant reach in my opinion.

Which is why my post started off with one key phrase. No one ever openly thinks they'll bust but self doubt does rear its head even for professional athletes

I don't get the anti player sentiment in these negotiations.  He certainly has a right to try to get the best deal he can. This is about off set language. I don't understand why this. Contract situation would make someone not want him as a raven?

While it's obviously just my perception . It just comes across as a guy who isn't overly confident in his ability to transfer to the nfl game.   The whole thing is that he wants more money upfront and he doesn't want him being cut and picked up by a new team to count towards money being guaranteed by the rookie contract.  

I get that it's the only thing that can be negotiated in rookie contracts now but it just seems weird to me that a hold out happens over a guy who wants to have all his guaranteed paid by yr2 and also be able to negotiate with a new team at that point if/when he's cut by SD  

i I had the same vibe when Jamarcus did it in Oakland.  It makes me view it as the guy knows he's gonna bust so he wants to ensure he's paid early

Yeah I think it's nuts. I applaud sd for not budging.

Don't believe the comment you quoted was jake long related

That assessment of Billick is bogus. How is it his job to find a QB?  That's the gm. Billick completely changed the perception of the Ravens from the loser Browns to champions. That championship would not have been won with marchibroda or others. The HC job is to lead the team to the best of its ability not to be a coordinator only and that's what he did. 

How is it people don't realize billick had a say in boller being drafted

Well if you want to get snippy about it...you don't have to go slinging names. You can disagree with me if you like about something. Others can feel free to disagree with me all they want. I don't think Sanders was a great signing. The reason why he didn't play a lot is because he was still nursing that toe. He was awful in the locker room and no, I am not making that up, you simply have to read "Next man up" to hear all about that.

You do know there's a difference between calling your post arrogant and ignorant and calling you arrogant and ignorant right?

Because I was actually around to watch the guy play. He took time away from other players that should have been getting the reps. He was nothing close to being his former self, which at his advanced age nobody really expected, but he wasn't even good as a nickel back. He also brought with him his clique and divided the locker room. It is part of what got the team falling apart in the Billick years and caused him to lose the locker room. You've got to be able to remove the sentiment over the legend of what Sanders was and look at the reality of what he was when he was a Raven.

Guess you're claiming that others who disagree with you didn't see his whole career.  He didn't take time away from guys who should have played. He was signed because we didn't have as much depth as you want to claim. 

So again a guy who was out for 4 yrs and signed for a small any only disappointed people who viewed him as prime time still 

Not sure how you could say that sanders, after 4 yrs off, was a disappointment.

I'd take Hue Jackson with Wade Phillips as my DC. I think much like Harbs, Hue would have a great working relationship with Ozzie, Eric and Steve, while getting max respect from his players and coaches. Also I think the fans would love him as well. 

Idk. I like hue but based on Oakland and the re-org in Cleveland I'm not sure his respect for Ozzie and decosta translate to him being a good member of the brain trust

I'd be happy to revisit Kubiak after this year. He's got quite an extensive resume of mediocrity for all but one year of his head coaching career. You have to give him some credit for last year but I believe his extreme conservative coaching style hinders them more than benefits. And that will play itself out. 

Dude took over a team that was in the afccg the yr before. I mean it was a 12-4 team that he turned into a 12-4 team. It was a team that scored 30ppg the yr before he took over.   Not to take too much from kubiak but it is foolish to give him all the praise for Denver. Hell it could turn out like gruden in Tampa....

Billick cause his team has only missed the playoffs once and that was with cassell and they still won 10 games. 

Arians because he's aggressive and creative. 

Tomlin because, rivalry aside, he seems like a cool down to earth guy that players would enjoy playing for. 

Sean Payton and mike McCarthy would be intriguing but I think ultimately a payton team ends up being undisciplined and I think gb borders on underachieving with the qb they have 

Nothing in a while but with season starting now would be a good time for more shirts
