    I'm not sure where to put this since the original thread got locked, but Laremy Tunsil lost his starting job at LG to Dallas Thomas.

    I'm not sure if you all know anything about Dallas Thomas, but he might be one of the worst guards in the league, if not the worst.

    It's unlikely Thomas holds onto that throughout the entire season, but the fact that Tunsil lost his job to Thomas and the fact that Stanley gave the Ravens the confidence to cut Eugene Monroe speaks volumes to those who criticized the Ravens.

    It's not yet tc so the talk if him losing a position he didn't have is irrelevant. For all we know it could be a public motivation tool.  not a fan or supporter of his just pointing out you're essentially writing a "told you so" post in July when no one has made it through a padded camp...

    Emmitt would have been Barry's back-up

    So? What does that have to do with the post about running styles and line play?

    at what point do you and the others actually listen to Barry who said in detail why it wouldn't work out as well in Dallas and he even used the example of why he was taken out in goal line situations as the reason. 

     

    I I mean really all you are so far on his jock but not a sole has bothered to quite or heed what he said about it himself. 

     

    So you know Barry said he wouldn't have done well because the play would have the hole dictated and he was the type of back to skip a hole because he felt a bigger play was to be had elsewhere. This is why the Broncos scheme would have been ideal.

    Not to take anything away from Emmitt Smith but his O-line at Dallas frequently opened up holes a vehicle could drive through and with holes like that your whole scheme argument is nill and void PERIOD . I will say it again I would be willing to bet Barry would have racked up 2500 + yards for sure behind that O-Line. I do agree with the fullback being added because Barry was begging for the Lions to add a fullback. As far as what Barry said I truly believe he did not want to take anything away from E. Smith's accomplishments and was just being polite. Have you looked at the stats Barry put up at OSU? What other RB has done that?

    Must be why his back ups did horrible. Again if you were to give him an ol from another team it'd be Denvers based both in scheme and how they made numerous backs look

    Not giving him the scheme, just the O-Line

    So then you're suggesting Dallas OL should play a scheme they weren't agreeable with then?  That's just as silly. Take drive blocking OL and ask them to zone block.

    Due to Barry's preferred style and his own opinion Denvers OL would have been the dream.  

     

    The only addition I'd have given Barry is a fullback like moose as Barry's best yr in Detroit came with a consistent fb blocking.

    The only comp I like is Ray Rice. To me Dixon is neither Bell nor Foster. He is smaller and bulkier, he has more quickness, he's also more tight in the spaces. He's got a Doug Martin like jump cut. There was also this Bills RB from the 90s or so, I saw highlights from him on FB and he looked like Kenneth a lot.

    23 Kenneth Davis or are you comparing him to Thurman Thomas

    If ravens are a team that believes its defense is the strength of the team then the ravens are not going to be contenders. There is not one player on defense that strikes fear in opponents. Unless players from this draft perform very well the ravens are going to call on its offense. There are no all pro defensive players. The ravens do have a franchise qb 2 young runnin backs with skills, an oline that should be dominant, a young talented TE and a fast athletic vet TE that can block. And young fast WRs with a veteran deep guy and SS.

    Not one defensive player? Lol. So I'm guessing you've talked to every team about how they'd game plan and what they worry about from the Ravens defense and they all said they aren't worried about Suggs, Doom or their ability to force bad passes that give weddle an opportunity to make a play.

    If he's severely injured and ir l'd the Ravens would do what every other team that uses a fb does.  Sign a free agent. 

     

    Teams thst hat use a fb only carry one so the what if is no different than it's ever been

    What?  I'm confused.  Did you quote me because of the forum or were you replying to me?  I don't follow the context here. 

    Some posts removed. So his response doesn't fit anymore.

    I wouldn't take away from a guy's opinion because he wasn't a superstar. I would however listen harder to Deion Sanders opinion about being a NFL star then Trent Dilfer's. No disrespect to Dilfer, but Sanders has lived the HOF track.

    I wouldn't because as an analyst Deion is more about his friends. I also wouldn't value a guys opinion just because he's athletically gifted.  A guy suceeding in the league isn't simply because he knows how to analyze other players some are just gifted athletes.
