HEAR ME OUT , please

I understand we need to run better, but in order to run better you have to run often. 

we are built to pass , be honest people

speed and possession WR's catching TE's , catching RB's. we have depth at these positions

what is stanley's strength(pass block) not sure

another reason for our ineptitude, is no hierarchy

yes SSS is our 1, but really who is the clear 1,2,3

it is great that joe is spreading the ball around trying to keep everybody happy

Skill position need rhythm,

I wrote a post months ago saying we are a passing Offense,

our strength is passing like it or not,

joe got the money , he got the weapons,

be not confused my brothers,

" we are a passing offense"  

just have to find our groove.

A win is a win and this was 1 ugly win. and I will take it

Good; referee made a bad call, 

Bad; many people here may hate this

 Forsett is not a strong runner, he does not hit the holes hard and fast, I think West should be 1 and forsett 2

Ugly; gotta be that 1st qtr, we allowed a record breaking 1st Qtr

all in all we came together as a defense and offense , maybe my expectations to high (10/11 win)

or maybe the passing of 1 of our coaches,

RIP coach Brooks,,  

2-0

yeah

mod and mod, 

didn't see that....

name calling spouse and children,refer to your rules and regulation 

give them 10 points and probation, you should get 10 also

gotta know them rules and regulation

what she did is crazy, (you see I did not call her out of her name)

keep it classy Moderators, 

still the parent of his children, so what ever the situation is,

remember we do not have the right to call her out of her name,

wife, ex wife

great example MODERATOR 3, 

do anybody know how these MODS are picked.

had to mention this again,

BALLERS,,,,,

I do not think we are underrated,  I live in atlanta and we are deep here, my wife is from Haiti and I am always dropping ravens gear there,

we really are everyplace, and now I am mailing shirts and jerseys to PARIS, yes France,  

1st, our problem is  we do not get as much prime time games and when we do, well some times we fail

we need prime time games in our city,

2nd, OZ was on "BALLERS"(voice) last night, and siz was doing his thing, lol

RAVENS NATION at it's best,,,

ok, 

I love the win

good; all skilled positions,WR'S , RB's TE's Mr. Flacco (I think he still recovering maybe mentally) and the defense (they saved us)

bad; some play calling (2nd half) offense not producing with that many weapons it should be no excuse

but we do need time to gel 

ugly; has to be zuttah didn't get what he was doing

I looked at thepft website and couldn't find any reference to it. A link would really be helpful.

it was on tv, (PFT LIVE)

that is why I could not post a link,

I was watching it and Mike Florio is all in,

had to mention this, I am watching profootballtalk and

mike florio just pick us to win the superbowl,

he said "everybody has us under rated and it's where they want to be" 

sorry I do not have the link but it's on pft live

I am of the few that really believe we will be good,

I  think our offense will have no excuses

as long as joe go ,,, we go

I think we will have some growing pains with out LT and possible LG ( which is why I say no to a complete rookie L side)

but skills position, we are good

wait till K,DIXON get back,,

our offense should be able to average at 60 - 73/74 points per game,lol

We sign the greatest of all time at a position we need help in and people complain.....I don't understand.

He used to be great and yes his stats are well known

chicago let him go along with atlanta(live here)

he isn't what he used to be,

and  for me 

I rather have a top 5 rated offense or defense

not ST,

but being our HC is a ST coach, guess we pay older players 

the only good from this is mentor to Reynolds

4 mil, 

seems a bit much and factor in butler cut

I trust the FO and their choice,

ST is a vital role and often can make or break a game.

Our HC is a ST coach so I get it, 

but I rather have an offense or defense ranked in the top 5 

as oppose to a ST unit ranked in the top 5,

haven't our ST been rated the last couple yrs in the top 5? 

do anybody know/heard anything on what the vikings offered via a trade

No, he hasn't. Zimmer (Bengals), Turner (SD), and the QB coach (Cleveland) all came from other teams.

pat shurmur was his connection

and he should be fired after the season, way to much and if he gets hurt,,,

just heard on nfl network,

vikings was talking to us about a trade for a QB

teams panic way to much,

the rams and eagles give up a boatload of picks anf for what

the rams gave up a lot for sam bradford 

shout out to our RAVENS,,,

forsett is a good guy,

but c'mon people we got younger, faster and stronger not to mention cheaper.

 Dixon is the future and west is out power back,

with buck being here in the event there is an injury (plus he is cheap , rookie contract)

we cut some good people I wonder if we tried to trade anybody,

after the vikings gave up all that for sam bradford (stupid move),

how about we trade josh johnson for vikings patterson.

ok, 

make it happen

my good; Joe and sizzle

my bad; I know it's still pre season but the defense is ok, I am not blown away and I am confident it will be better come game time 

my ugly; I do feel bad for Watson , but this dude K.Dixon is for real .

have anybody threw around any nicknames for the future K.Dixon

Do you really think we are going to put a viable team out there thats going to be competitive with the rest of the AFC this year? Come on man !!!

wassup wizard,

I think we do have a good team,

our only weakness imo is

   1. our DC, can he dial up plays and be aggressive not to mention keep our players in position to play to their strength,

   2.possibly having 2 rookies on the blind side is scary but stanley looks ok and I do like lewis at guard (if it works, then they will get better with time)

   3. then we have to account for murphy I am sorry Mr. Murphy, he shows up anywhere and everywhere   

murphy law is real , injuries, accidents, just what ever can happen will happen,

I am of the few who have high expectations for the season, if this is SSS last season then lets make it a season,

if harb wants to be viewed in the top echelon of HC's well this is a season to do it,

I told you Ravens were gonna kill the lions. But Next week is challenging. The Saints are good im telling you now be prepared for defensive battle. 

dude , you do know next week is the last pre season game

nobody plays,

lol, shout out to our brethren in the deep south,,,

I was rooting for T.Rich, but we all know you have to be on the field

now I was about to name WR's

but Jacquouille named formations, 

so on that note

first I am running a 2&3 TE set

with a 3 TE set

watson, gilmore with pitta out wide

wallace split wide

K dixon as my single back (I know he is a rook)   

with a 2 TE set

watson and maxi

wide is wallace and aiken

forsett as my single back

1 TE

crockett 

WR, wallace aiken 

in the backfield 

juice and dixon,,

if everybody do what is expected I think we may be on the cusp of a great offense,, 

the the additions of our 2 new defensive coaches

I think will aide in "organized chaos"

Frasier helps the secondary

I forgot our new def line coach name,(just remember something about a drive thru window) 

In my opinion

coaches put players in position and know their strength and weakness so they can succeed

our defense is predicated on chaos

organized , unorganized

just bring the CHAOS !!!!!!

did you know,

I enjoy this topic ,

many great did u know,

thanks u all

B.Watson will teach our young TE players

how to be a pro,

how to take care of your body,

work ethic , decision making 

I am of the few who will not depend on his production ( a big help)
