lol @ Flacco... If Ross were only 8' tall

I laugh at the thought of our offense vs our defense... no wonder they both stink so bad. It's like two jv teams

Harbaugh with another of his patented stupid challenges that waste a TO in a tight game... And this defense... lol

We could also be 5-1 with a play here or there... That in itself is incredible considering how bad this team is. Says a lot about the AFC this year.

Yup. Wasted down.

SSS at 50% is better at getting open than anyone else on this team.... That's the problem.

QBs should pay this Ravens D money for the privilege to play them. Making bad to mediocre QBs look like all pros.

Is this sarcasm?

This is the bottom line. He's still one of the tops GMs, and he's not going anywhere for a while nor should he... If anything, hopefully his recent misses gives him motivation to become even better at what he does.

You forgot getting incredibly boneheaded and untimely penalties.

Ravens will likely go something like 6-10 or 5-11. Not good enough to win more than that, but not bad enough to get a Top 5 pick. I'd be shocked if this team loses more than 11 games this year.

With our luck Wright will play decently this year and get a long term contract next year only to stink it up or in more typical Ravens CB fashion, come down with a season-ending injury.

The Justin Biebers because they're annoying, talentless, and I would actually pay money not to have to watch them.

I literally don't see it, no matter how hard I try: @Niners -- 50/50 @Cards -- if we don't get blown out, it'll be a miracle... seriously Chargers -- this team has our number Jags -- ok... W Rams -- with Foles at the helm, we have a chance... but that D tho @Browns -- 50/50 @Fins -- 50/50 Hawks -- likely another home L Chiefs-- 50/50 Steelers -- L with a healthy Roethlisberger @Bengals -- L So if you include the Rams game, I see 6 winnable games, but I'm sure the Ravens will lose more than their fair share of those 50/50 games since they can't even beat the Browns at M&T in a must-win.

Perriman needs to play this year if he can imo. Need to see what he has because he's still a huge question mark. With the Ravens luck in drafting WRs, it's more likely than not he's going to be very mediocre and/or injury-prone... In which case, Ravens need to address that for next season.

Flacco's accuracy the first three games of the year was really shaky, but I think he actually looked good out there today. Yes, the Browns have the 2nd worst defense in football (Ravens are clearly #1 in that dept at this point), but like it's been pointed out ad nauseam, we're fielding a bunch of journeymen and rookie receivers and TEs out there from top to bottom. Also we're on our 4th OC in as many years... That's obviously not any kind of ideal environment for success regardless of who you have under center. And here's the other thing. Even with SSS, the Ravens receiving corp is probably still the worst in the league. Don't forget that even by his own admission, SSS was brought here as a #2. The fact that a 5'9" 15-year vet is far, far, far and away the best weapon we have at wideout says a lot about the talent we have at that position. And here's another thing, and no disrespect to anyone. Flacco's only ever had the luxury of throwing to old receivers past their prime and at best, 1B's like Boldin. Outside of Tom Brady, every other Top 12 QB in the league going back the last 8 years has probably had a legitimate #1 receiver (and quite a few had two #1's, or at least a #1B). Actually I take that back... Even Brady got to play with a still-in-his-prime Moss for a couple of years. But guys like Stafford got a pass for years because of his gaudy fantasy numbers due to him playing in a pass-happy offense with THE best receiver in the league, but Flacco has done a lot more with a lot less, and he continues to do so. Yes, he can be maddeningly inconsistent at times, but sometimes it's not on him, like today. Our receivers just aren't very good, and even a guy like Rodgers has problems when his receivers can't get any separation as evidenced today vs the Rams.

I've never seen defensive backs slip and fall so routinely as they have on the Ravens the past several years. I guess it's part of their charm.

Our defense vs Kaepernick... the movable objects vs stoppable farce. Legitimately curious to know which will come out on top next week.

AFC is pretty weak. Someone said 8-8 may be good enough to get the #6 spot, but I think this may be another year a 7-9 team may get in. Of course, Ravens have to win 6 more games to get to get to 7-9, and that's probably not going to happen.

Heard them on 105.7 this morning talking about how they wanted to hear Babin's name called more in this game vs last (apparently he actually played some downs in Pittsburgh)... guess sometimes you have to be careful what you ask for.

Funniest thing about McCown looking like Drew Brees out there today is that we have an OC who probably knows him as well as any coach or coordinator out there. 10 days to prepare + best scouting report possible on the opposing journeyman QB = giving up 450+ yards passing @ home. Doesn't get any more disheartening than that.

Or anyone that can run decent routes outside of SSS. Mason was slow as dirt, but he was money on those come back routes. On the flip side, every wide out that plays against this Ravens D seems to be wide open...

7-9 teams typically don't make the playoffs...

We should've lost that game on several occasions... but glad we won.

Tucker MVP of game... and Scobee...
