Our defensive line is soft. Dumervil shows up every now and then.

How can you pressure if the guys on our defensive line are weaker than almost every opposing offensive line we play

Za'darius Smith and Michael Pierce were getting man handled in the beggining of the game! Did anyone notice how on almost every Le'veon Bell run, the off naive lineman were just straight up shoving our D-line back like a father on his teenage son. Zadarius Smith and Michael Pierce, along with Brandon Williams looked like a bunch of clowns. Brandon Williams is good as long as the target is directly in front of him within arms length. Other than that, watching Brandon Williams pursuit a ball carrier is like watching duufus take a SAT test. His upper body is so heavily disproportioned that if he leans one way to make a tackle, or just throw his arm out, his entire body falls in that direction. Haloti was excellent in his pursuit and nifty capabilities. Lawrence guy, I think we all know that Lawrence Guy is supposed to be a backup but its still frustrating watching him. it was flat out embarrassing watching our defense out there. It's like, whichever direction the Pittsburgh offense wanted us to go in, that's the direction they pushed our defensive line in. It wasn't so much that Le'veon Bell is "so patient". It's that our D-line was getting manhandled!! Right now the elephant in the room is Eric Weddle. What's up with this guy not wrapping up to make a tackle??? Playing soft and unlike a Raven. I hope no one gets me wrong, Weddle is a smart player, but his tackling has been shady recently. I know he is undersized but that's no excuse. Webb is undersized but can tackle like the best of them.

Everyone is saying we are going to lose this game. (I'm in deep enemy territory near D.C.). But I have a gut feeling that we will win. I hope we do. And I really hope Jimmy can play. Without him our secondary is so much different.

Oddly, I never hated Big Ben. Over the long years, he has always been a class act player when playing against us. Unlike Tom Brady who yells at referees to throw a flag at us. Big Ben had his nose broken against us, and never cried about it. Just kept playing.

Guys I hate (from the bitter rivarly) Hines Ward Mike Tomlin Ike Taylor Joey Porter (who is a complete doosh bag) James harrison

Blessed to have warmer weather tomorrow. Our players should enjoy that.

Idk if anyone saw, but Nick Boyle #86 was making the silent plays that really showed why he is worth keeping. Great in blocking, there was one play where Kennith Dickson got stood up after a run. Nick Boyle came from behind him and basically wrapped up Dixon and pushed him forward for more yardage. The technique he used in that split second was so smart and showed his determination and refusal to back down. By him wrapping up Dixon he prevented other tacklers from hitting Dixon directly. If Doyle can stay off the drugs, or at least keep from getting caught, he will be good. It will be refreshing to see Gillmore back in the action catching passes as well.

I'm honestly not worried about the defense. i'm worried about this 50/50 offense. The fans deserve to know more about these lackluster check down passes Flacco and our offense keeps doing. It's like watching a pre mature offense sometimes. Flacco will throw it to the FB who's only about 2 yards ahead knowing he's about to get lit up by the defender shadowing him. I do not understand why this offense is still running these plays. What is it?!?!? Are the receivers not getting open fast enough?? If so why haven't they made adjustments or audibles to counter the blitz? Are they not putting in the effort during practice to be a more consistent/dangerous offense? We had that one great game against the Dolphins but we should not settle for that. The fans deserve an honest answer from this organization on these check down passes Flacco is throwing over and over again, because it's happening in every game that we lose/

Welcome back Camp

Lol

When I saw Brady showing that high emotion and fire on the sideline, I couldn't help but say "I wish Flacco was like that". I knew at that point in the 1st quarter that the game was over. Flacco cannot match the competitiveness of Brady. Only Ray Lewis was capable of pushing this team over that edge. Which is why I was upset at people who criticized Ray for criticizing Flacco. I do not know what goes through some peoples mind, but when a legend like Ray Lewis gives out criticism, especially to a player that is playing for the team he fought for, you just shut up and listen. I'd take Ray Lewis over flacco any day...point blank. Flacco should have been thankful to get those words from Ray. he only said it because he truly cares about this organization. Unfortunately there are people in this Ravens organization that never gave as much as Ray did, but they feel like they are in a position to downplay his words.

While watching the game against the Patriots. Everyone that knows this team well knew that Flacco was going to play with no emotion until the patriots scored first. Has anyone else noticed the games where our offense gives ZERO effort up until the opposing teams offense has already ran the lead up. Then after we are down Flacco all of a sudden wakes up and plays ball, but by that time it's to late.

They're jerking our chains again guys. We all know that our secondary is swiss cheese without Jimmy Smith.

#1 Defense. Better than all other 31 teams!! BALTIMORE RAVENS!

I have a feeling we will lose this game in a very heartbreaking fashion. One of those games where we play our hearts out, but still end up falling short. It will be a tough, physical game, but I just keep envisioning Julian Edelman catching that last TD pass to seal the win. We need to play very physical in this game. Especially against Bennett. This envision I have is liable to change in the upcoming days leading to Sunday. I will let you guys know what's what on Saturday night...Stay tuned.

I totally forgot Taliaferro existed lol smh.

To be honest, in my opinion Brandon Williams is not as good as "Ngata was in his prime".

Wow, that's sad he's still missing tackles. 1st round pick my butt.

The ticket for the game or the flight? Lol

When I first saw the photograph up top I thought this team was moving to St. Louis. I thought that arc was the ark in St. Louis lol. My heart dropped for a brief second.

Based on how unpredictable this organization can be. I wouldn't bank on him playing again, but he does have good potential so the chances of him playing are on his side. He could really help out this offense be tougher.

Yep, but I don't know if having good Kickers should be considered a legacy Lol. We have to tip our hats to Dallas. Those guys have had good RB's for the longest. From Ezekiel Elliot, all the way back to Emmit Smith.

Worth every penny.
