  1. I have no problems with any player trying to cash in. The NFL is the only sport that doesn't have guaranteed contracts and the shelf life of a player isn't that long. Get what you can get while you can get it. As Ravens fans we've seen this movie way too many times..grooming a player just to see them go elsewhere and sign with another team. That's what happens when you draft good players.

  2. We all see that the potential is there for this guy. He has to just stay humble and keep working. I'm excited to see what the future holds for him in a Ravens uniform. I admit I was one of the people that has been disappointed in him since he's been drafted but it wasn't his fault that he had to deal with injuries and things happening in his personal life outside of football. This is technically his rookie year so we have to be patient despite the high expectations of being a 1st round draft pick. Those expectations comes with the territory.

  3. Tavon Young, Matt Judon and Michael Pierce are the 3 rookies that are stepping up for us along with Stanley who has missed some games and Alex Lewis who unfortunately got injured and may miss some games. I hope Correa becomes a player for us down the road. Like the article mentioned, we have to win at least one of the games against the Bengals who has our number the way we have the Steelers number. First thing first, lets take care of business in Dallas.

  4. OK the slide was bad but I seen Joe slide plenty of times, the grass caught it no big deal but that onside kick is a different story. I get what he was trying to do but don't do that unless you have that style of kick down to a science. Now you look like a MORON like Eric Weddle said. Couldn't imagine where we would be if we didn't have Mr. Wallace. The boy Tavon Young is BALLIN!! We may have found a corner finally. Keep Shareece Wright on the bench, don't even use him for nickel and dime packages.

  5. I loved every second of the way the D dominated that team from Pa. We all would've loved a shutout but a W is a W(that sounds so cliché for this team this year). No one has been able to run on us all year that's why I was so surprised that Matt Forte had the game he had against us but Le'Veon felt out frustration. He did absolutely NOTHING!!! I love our special teams units. We got to have the best special teams coach. I been watching football ever since I came out the wound and I never seen one team block so many kicks the way we do. That's good for us because teams have to take time out their day and practice or simulate the things we do but it just seems like Coach comes up with different schemes each week. I'll give Stanley a pass but he must play better that's for sure.Our defensive skilled position guys need to hit the jugs machine and do pushups on the field for every dropped interception. We're not that good of a team to be dropping balls like that and giving teams more opportunities. Imagine what the score would've been if we caught those. As far as the running game, we didn't get much but at least we continued to run the ball and was more balanced. That's all we been asking for as fans. It eats up time and keeps the other teams offense off the field. That'll work in our favor as long as we get points out the drive..preferably touchdowns.

  6. For some reason when I first saw this article I was thinking it was going to say something to the effect of how the Cleveland Cavaliers and the NBA talked to MLB and the Indians on adjusting the time of their basketball game so it won't start the exact same time as the World Series. Of course I'm referring to a couple years ago when the Ravens and Orioles couldn't come up with a solution to have a football and baseball game both being played on the same day. Granted this is the NBA and MLB instead of the MLB and NFL but I still feel cheated that we didn't get that game here to this day eventhough it was years ago.

  7. I always said I don't think Brandon Williams(my cousin because of the same last name) won't be back here although he's one of the fan favorites because he's just a all around good guy. Rothliesberger is a drama queen and diva when it comes to injuries..every year he walks around like he's hurt badly just to end up playing the next week..he's been doing this for years and I'm glad the mad backer Bart Scott calls him out on it but we're not falling for it. It wouldn't surprise me if he plays. Sit Hester down and let Camp be our specialists and be our 3rd wr if he can stay healthy for a change. I wish I was as optimistic as a lot of other people thinking we can potentially get up to 9 wins. Why is all of these different articles coming out talking about a increased workload for Kenneth Dixon? Terrance West has been running the ball ok for the amount of carries he's getting. Am I missing something here or the front office is slowly but surely trying to make Dixon the starting rb?

  8. It's a shame we can't afford our good players while the likes of Seattle can pay Russell Wilson, Kam Chancellor, Bobby Wagner, Richard Sherman, Earl Thomas, Michael Bennett, etc top dollar.

    You gotta understand Seattle was capable of signing all of them guys to new deals(except Wagner because he was the last one to get paid after Wilson if I remember correctly) because Wilson was still getting paid under his rookie contract. That's why Bennett wants a new deal and Chancellor held out a few games last year for the same thing. On the other hand we have gave out some bad contracts as of late over the years that has us in a bad cap situation for next year and following years. Webb and Jimmy Smith are overpaid, Suggs and Doom are making good money but they're aging, no need to discuss Flacco's contract, Tucker is worth every penny, don't understand why we resigned Shareece Wright, Yanda isn't playing like the Yanda we all know and Weddle is performing like he's suppose to.
