  1. The way Jacksonville played us is the way a lot of teams will play us. Play a lot of zone to keep everything in front and nothing over the top because of the speed we have and Joe's big arm. The 21 completions was good to see but we didn't generate enough points as a result of it. Everyone knows we still have to play better and hopefully they will as the season go one.
  2. 3-0 is 3-0 no matter how you slice it but like Joe said we can't win this way when we play the better teams. The running game and O-line as a whole has to improve and stop shooting ourselves in the foot with the penalties. The D is much improved from last year although I'm still not sold on both Wright and Smith. Its like they play too tentative instead of trusting their technique or something I don't know. Before the year is out they won't have no more than 6 interceptions combined between the two of them...thank God for Eric Weddle. We got our payback from Jacksonville now lets get our payback from the Raiders to become 4-0.
  3. Man I'm loving these blocked extra points and field goals. Can't say enough about our special teams aside from Hester muffing that punt(he needs to hit the bricks he's done). One word to describe Tucker, CLUTCH!!! We started celebrating at the bar as soon as we saw him run onto the field. Doesn't matter how we do it but we're 3-0 people.
  4. Another typical Ravens game comes down to the wire. We tend to make things interesting from week to week but this is who they are so fans make sure you have your oxygen tank at all times because these guys will drive you crazy at times but damn I love my team.
  5. Good free agent signings. I honestly wasn't too high on acquiring Wallace but I was wrong. He has produced both weeks and I'm very interested to see if he can reach the endzone for the third consecutive week. Jernigan and Pierce are handling their business in the trenches so far. Just wait til Sizzle and Doom get up to full speed. I still like Judon over Zadarius Smith right now.
  6. After watching Kenneth Dixon in the preseason I had a feeling that 1 of the 4 backs would be trade bait. Also, Buck didn't get that much run in the preseason so that was another indication for me. As far as corners I think we should keep all of them. You can never have enough corners. As for Aiken I can understand his frustration but you knew with the addition of Wallace and both Perriman and Smith are coming off injuries, someone wasn't going to see the ball that much. After the game Pitta had last week who knows how many balls he'll catch. With all of the weapons at Joe's disposal now there will be some players who just won't get as many catches as they like from week to week.
  7. Glad we found this guy because after this season Brandon Williams won't be a Raven. I think he has priced himself out of Baltimore and will get a huge payday from another team.
  8. Whether it has something to do with the playcalling or not I'm just not a big fan of Trestman. His playcalling is all over the place and its not creative at all. I rarely see any motioning, stacked formations etc.
  9. The skies the limit for this guy. Orr could become that next great Ravens linebacker
  10. Just when I thought Perriman would avoid the injury bug. I hope its just something he needed a day to rest and be back out there practicing today. We need him to be on the field.
  11. Glad to have you back DP! Do big things this year
  12. Yeah we made McCown look like the second coming of Johnny U last year but this year our secondary is better especially the 2 guys that's playing safety so I expect a better defensive effort this time around.
  13. Shareece had a helluva first game I can't take that away from him but the jury is still out on him...at least my jury is but I hope he proves me wrong.
  14. Just to see him out there with the guys again is enough for me. I'm sure as the season goes, he'll be a bigger factor in our offense.
  15. The guy has talent there's no denying that but only playing 8 games in 3 years ain't gonna cut it. The one thing I'm afraid of is the minute we let him go, he'll have a non-injury riddled career and shines with someone else. I just wanna see him win especially being a local guy.
  16. I know it was last year and we have Weddle and Webb back there instead of Hill and Lewis but the way Josh McCown torched our secondary for those 2 games, I am a bit nervous. Cleveland normally plays us tough anyway but we'll win by 8 points.
  17. I'm still wondering what made them double down on Smith instead of Wallace which is the bigger threat out of the 2 but Joe audibled to that and made them pay for their mistake.
  18. We need a better Jernigan this year
  19. Not concerned about these injuries except for Campanaro. I really like the guy and I think he's the ideal shifty slot receiver. The talent is there but as much as its frustrating to us fans about his injuries, I'm sure he's frustrated too. I want to see the guy flourish in a Ravens uniform
  20. I'll hold judgment until training camp when he's taking hits but I'll take the way he's progressing right now. On paper with the weapons we have on offense and a healthy Pitta, our offense should be explosive
  21. If this guy can stay healthy and with the speed of Wallace...LOOK OUT!!!
  22. They deserved whatever penalty the NFL gives to them. Harbs pockets got a lil light but missing 3 days of OTAs won't kill us. I'm sure the players don't mind it eventhough they won't say it unless you're a rookie. When we start kicking butt during the season nobody will remember those missed practices
  23. Call it bias or whatever but there's no way in hell this man should still be paying the price for his actions when other players that were less deserving of a second chance got one but this man can't when he's learned from his mistake and has been nothing but a model citizen doing speaking events and things like that. He's probably still better than half the backs playing now
