  1. Also, in that Denver game, as much as I love SSSr, why is his TD drop to win the game omitted before the throw to Crockett? Two chances to win and neither one came up with the ball.
  2. Still not so much on Joe, as it is on dropped passes, costly penalties, and other such things...... Every game that resulted in a loss, for the most part, these reasons were to blame.....
  3. Fun and light-hearted Ravens stories are perfect to lighten the mood right now, we can't let ourselves be in a dark place too long, and stories about Joe are usually pretty hilarious! That first TD he scored was a beauty!!
  4. In my opinion, most of these penalties are inexcusable...... While I agree, some techniques are left up to interpretation, the blatent personal foul penalties are what is killing us, that is a discipline problem. Just about all late hits to a QB are gonna be called, (unless you are Joe or Big Ben) grabbing the face mask, etc., they need a little more work to cut out, but all definitely need some clamping down..... The refs also seem to be calling a good mix of b.s. sometimes as well......
  5. Agree with both Bob21 and Ravens/Laker..... Mosley is definitely a leader-in-the-making with our team, and I also believe this defensive downfall is NOT all on him. Every player needs to do their job on the field the best way possible, and as a unit, and things will start falling into place...... If not, the weaker links will start to show......
  6. I hope Asa knows this may be his very last chance...... C'mon Asa, show us why you are here...... !!
  7. Kinda reminded me of Jacoby running those returns back..... If he continues this way, which I am very much hoping he does, he is going to be breaking through with several TD returns....
  8. Jeremy Zuttah, Daryl Smith, and CJ Mosely with bad ratings this week...... That is really concerning for me more so than any of the other low rated players. Mosely may be going through the sophomore slump, at least I hope that is all.... It would be really hard for him to top his rookie year; Zuttah is a stellar center, hoping he picks it up and starts playing better; Daryl Smith has me most concerned.... As a player who stepped into Ray Lewis's position, and has been a great player every game, I am wondering if some injury is holding him back, he is one tough, smart, top notch defensive player for us...... On the other hand glad to see Eugene Monroe back!
  9. Thank you !!!!!
  10. I hope you are joking...... How much sense would trading Joe make? Our solid QB for plugging some holes in our defense? No thanks......
  11. Am I watching the same game? This looks like an exact game replica of our game with the Steelers last Thursday night..... Tied up right now at 17-17 with 5 minutes left in the game..... Neither team is overly besting the other....
  12. Welcome to Baltimore, Shareece, wishing you all the best here, and "Play like a Raven"
  13. Sadly, there isn't one thing in this article, said by any football pundit, that I could disagree with, and the one thing that did stand out to me is what Jason LaCanfora said; penaties are killing drives and games, and discipline is not being addressed....... Overall defense is sliding enough, but add the continuation of costly and un-necessary penalties, and we will not win another game this year in my opinion. If our offense, as decimated as it is, can still find a way to put up 24-30 or more pts a game, this is not on them, and we shouldn't have to put up astronomical #'s just to try to win a game. It is possible they are unfortunately maybe due for a bad season.... But with this said, they are and always will be my team no matter what, and I will continue to stand with them through the good, and not so good times...
  14. Totally breaks my heart to say that the widely feared, relentless defense that has defined our Raven's team for many years, now ceases to exist...... I know we have many injuries, but this team has always pulled together and bent but did not break..... I think it is safe to say, we are now broken.....
  15. Ok #'s 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14, your time to shine !!!
  16. Great Friday "employment pick-me-up" lol !! I look forward to the humor every week with these articles! LOVE the Yanda block!!
  17. C'mon Crockett.... !!!
  18. Still really hard to believe we got this pot of gold as an undrafted rookie...... Goes to show what kind of scouting system this awesome organization has.....
  19. He played about 6-7 snaps in the Steeler's game, and was double teamed most of the time..... I suspect a few of the sacks we got on Vick was because of this.....
  20. You have never seen Joe get pumped EVER, while on the field and one of our receivers makes an awesome catch and/or TD?? I have, and he doesn't need to be a locker room leader like Ray was, he needs to be an on the field leader, which he most definitely is; And he is not hurting anything..... Plus, we have plenty of locker room leaders, there is no shortage of them either.
  21. I am hoping for Crockett to come back this week as well..... He sure was a lot of fun to watch tonight at Purple Evening lip-syncing on stage to Shania Twain's "I feel like a woman" !!!! He definitely has some moves, lol !!
  22. I'm with the others here that say it is REALLY difficult to root for teams in our own division, it is still a long season..... In addition, it would also be really difficult to root against Tyrod.......
  23. and ugh....... Get well quick Steve.....
  24. Oh, and thank you for this article Kevin, I always enjoy them.....
  25. Flacco bashers again...... There was NO scoring by Pittsburgh from the intercept thrown by Joe, our defense stepped up and stopped them, they had to punt the ball, and yeah, maybe Joe should have held onto the ball better when he fumbled, but 99.9% of the time, that ball goes out of bounds, how that defender did what he did was nothing short of incredible...... Joe never lost his cool during any of these first 4 games, and quite frankly, kept us in the games to actually win them.... I will still take him as our QB over most all others in the NFL....
