Im just frustrated with the lack of creativity today. On both sides of the ball.

Fisher was actually doing horrible though. Harbaugh hasn't been nearly as inept as him.

Flacco can't get anything done with Hurst in there.

Ive been around long enough, Im just used to this kind of dropoff after Steelers week especially on the road.

Harbaugh just signed an extension, he's not going anywhere this season, especially not over a week 17 game after playoff elimination. Seems like next year is his make or break.

I think Orr was an underrated presence on defense this year.

They signed him to the active roster solely to keep him from getting picked up by another team.

Ducasse/Hurst losing this game for the team.

My favorite is grades for guys like Lamar Louis, Keenan Reynolds, Chris Lewis-Harris, and Buck Allen who didn't or barely played.

Yeah, he was a 4th Round pick of the Browns in 2015. Cut that year during final cuts. Been on and off the Cowboys since then. He was a basketball guy in JUCO but switched to football there because he was a 6'2'' power forward and wasn't going to get recruited. Played 2 years of football in JUCO, 1 year at Wazzu. Drops killed his career, seems to be why he can't stay on a roster. I doubt he's active for the game since he's had no time to prepare. With SSS and Aiken possibly gone next season this is probably about getting another WR on the roster for the offseason.

I love when people post these mocks. I'm still unsure about Peppers though. I think he has the instincts to be an NFL safety, but his stiff hips and lack of fluidity in coverage are what scares me (along with the very little impact he seemed to make on Michigan's defense). I'm also surprised by how often that I see Ejuan Price on these mocks. I understand why a lot of people look at his short frame and think of Dumervil, but I haven't really seen the same speed-power conversion thats made Dumervil an effective pass rusher. Hopefully that could be developed if hes drafted by the Ravens though.

I think it was a bad choice, but either way it didn't work out. The defense and offense both seemed to have issues with 3rd downs.

Theres just so many little things. Taking the penalty against Oakland that gave them a 3rd Down (which was converted and led to a TD) instead of declining and taking the 4th Down. Losing Jimmy against the Giants and watching OBJ go off. Playing the Jets (with their stacked DL) without Yanda or Stanley. The Redskins turnover/turnover disaster. Its just hard to point to any big problem. The offense wasn't great but that tends to happen when the team makes a midseason OC change. The defense struggled a little late in the season. Either way, things are looking good for the team going forward. Going from 5-11 to 8-8/9-7 in one season is definitely a good sign.

Not sure 2015 is really a great argument. I don't think deflategate actually helped them that much. And the Colts did beat the Ravens earlier that season.

Looks like Orr could be out on Sunday with a neck injury, should be interesting to get a look at Patrick Onwuasor who is more of a safety/linebacker hybrid.

I actually think that there are a lot of good TEs in this class and it's been difficult for O.J. Howard to stick out with so few targets.

Truth, I never liked him as a prospect. Mixon does actually have talent. But I do think that Oakman would have at least gotten on a practice squad for a year or two if he hadnt been arrested.

I'd be surprised if he ends up in the NFL at this point.

Hard to tell what could happen to Mixon. Tyreek Hill got drafted in the 5th Round while Shawn Oakman couldn't even get an UDFA contract (his situation was definitely a lot worse though).

Its definitely possible that Harbaugh could be on the hot seat next year.

uhhh I wouldnt hold my breath if i were you

I've never understood the Jimmy Smith hate. He's had one of the lowest burn rates the past couple years. I get that people on here generally react irrationally to when players get injured, but like you said there's a huge difference across the entire defense when he's out.

The Ravens never seem to have had trouble getting a decent RB. Some picks don't work out (Pierce, Taliaferro) but more often than not there has been good production from the draft picks at that position. I think that another offseason from Stanley and Lewis along with a healthier Yanda will do wonders for the run game more than anything.

Yeah. I think Weddle was asked to do a lot more when Jimmy went out. I don't have access to all-22 cameras, but my guess is that he had to do a lot of cleanup for Wright.

If Waller and Pitta catch those TDs, Flacco has 3TDs and probably the win and this board probably still has their "tough talk." Do the posters just want to make him run laps or be locked in a film room overnight or something?
