When did we become incompetent in stopping the run?  

Crap.  We were there too.  Wentz just gets off that perfect floater. 

That is just stupid play calling.  Your running game is working.  Why get cute on 3rd and 1?  

Mathews is just crushing us.  

Only way they beat us there is with a screen pass.  Wentz can't do anything on 3rd and long.  

I'm just happy to have the lead back.  

Eagles have struggled driving the field.  We should be able to get a touchback in this direction.  

A pass to juice on 3rd down that's short of the 1st.  I'm shocked!!!!

Luckily we have the winds at our back.  But that wind is brutal for a 50 yard FG.  

Can we at the very least get the lead back?  I'd feel so much better.  I'm so worried right now.  

You just can't lose yardage in a 2nd and short.  It's so stupid.  

This is a game where the run game must get going and win this for us.  We must commit to the run game.  

And somehow we are losing.  With the weather, I'm scared the offense will struggle to score another point today.  

There is the Ravens we know.  Never knowing how to dominate a game.  This game will go down to the wire as usual.  

Besides the opening drive INT, our opening field position has been horrible so far.  A continuation of last week. 

Nice.  Hopefully he didn't strain a groin or something on that run.  Nice to have another added wrinkle on offense.  

At least the Eagles have to battle for every yard their getting.  Don't make it easy on them.  

Eagles pretty much right where they left off last drive.

I would love to build up a two TD lead and see us turn it up on defense to see what they can do today!

This is the Ravens you're talking about.  Two score leads are a rare thing. Even though we have the energy now, we know how quickly things can change for us.

My thought is West should get more carries than Dixon but get Dixon touches in space

My thoughts as well.  Let West run north/south.  He'll soften up that defense by 4Q,  Dixon is dangerous in space and together they make a great combo.  We just need to use them effectively more. 

Defense is alive.  Crowd is alive.  Wish we had some of this energy last week.

I'll play....

1. Receivers locked up

2. 3 Ravens blocking 1 Patriot

3. 1 Raven blocking 3 Patriots

4. 2 Ravens blocking 1 Patriot to the ground

5. 1 Patriot on the ground

6. A Patriot safety near the endzone

7. TONS of running room for Joe Flacco to scramble out of for a BIG GAIN!!

Not sure where you see #7. He's going down in a matter of seconds with 3 free defenders within four feet.

Best to lose out and hope Ozzie doesn't screw up another draft pick

I'd still take a playoff trip over a higher draft pick any day.  Draft picks do not guarantee future success. Get the playoffs and you never know what might happen.  Didn't really think we would win it in 2012.  

I hate how they refer to the Hogan play as answering back.  That wasn't really the Patriots answering back as it was just the Ravens blowing coverage big time.

This wasn't a close game, just saying.. KD was great though.

Well we did have a chance to take the lead in the 4th.  And only lost by one score.

True. We don't deserve playoffs. This team all season has been a let down. What a nice send off for SSS

I never like the "we don't deserve to be in the playoffs" line.  Only half the playoffs teams really deserve to be there.  And last time we didn't deserve the playoffs we went out and finally beat the Steelers in the playoffs and took the Patriots to the brink.
