    Way more than half a gallon.. When I lost a bunch of weight last year doing two a day workouts, I was drinking over a gallon easy..

    I still drink right at a gallon everyday

    When I first wrote that post I said a gallon a day but then backed it down to half a gallon--didn't want them sloshing around. Thanks for confirming my initial thought.

    once again it seems improper hydration issues at camp. 

     

    torn muscles, cramps, and heat related issues, all on younger guys. whats the common denominator here? they all point directly to a lack of hydration. and them being younger guys, they could be a bit careless with their hydration, the coaches need to get up in their you-know-what's about staying hydrated

    Sipping from a water bottle during practice or a workout doesn't cut it.

     

    Half a gallon of water a day, every day would be a minimal amount for these men with the amount of exercise they put in. If their nutritionists and coaches are not hammering this home...shame on them.

    Latest Power Rankings have us third, behind Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, in our own division and 11th best team in the NFL. Early this morning on Mike and Mike they, the all-encompassing "they", talked about the AFCs best defenses and best front 7s and Baltimore never once was mentioned. Five and six teams were mentioned but not the Ravens. I'm pretty sure there is not a bulletin board for video diss' of a team's abilities but if there were, this morning's M&M would be included. Baltimore, as is often the case, is flying under the radar but will surprise many as the wins accumulate.

    Tonite the only excitement will be watching the saints D pick off and crush schaub.......and watching our D of course.......schaub is so bad we won't be able to gauge our offensive players very well.....So Bad....

     

    I was not thinking quite so negatively, but I'm also interested in the QB situation...specifically if Renner can play the position. In any event...thank God football has arrived.

    Thanks! You really covered everything. Any details on the battle between Brynn Renner vs Schaub?

    One never knows what Harbs will do but the QB battle in the pre-season games could be very telling. Ozzie liked Renner and we know Schaub; should be fun watching them.

    Some players need more time to grow. Jimmy smith? Not all players can go to a new team and be thrown into the fire like that and succeed. He had one bad game. Against tom brady. Enough said. Thank god you arent a coach or GM. It was his fifth game. I dont care how many practice squads hes been on. Those arent real gametime experience. I cant wait til he shows up this year. You keep bringng up that one game and thats it. How many games did he play for us? Ok then. Enough said.

    Some day I'd like to read a non-Raven fan post a similar comment, "he had one bad game, against Joe Flacco; enough said." R-E-S-P-E-C-T

    Everything I've read about both (outside of Webb failing his cond test) has been nothing but positive.  I even read there's no way you can keep Means off the 53 man roster b/c of the way he's been playing.  Go figure.

    Agree. All these talking-heads are doing is talking, except for LaCanfora. He decided to peer into his crystal ball and create a news story instead of report facts. Sounds like deflate-gate reporting. Pathetic.

    Cripe. you'd think the Cowboys were the champs.  They're getting covered almost everyday.  It's ridiculous.  I have yet to see any coverage of Ravens training camp, except here.

    I have not seen any Ravens coverage or notice of future coverage, but it is very early into TCs. Maybe in the next few weeks I'm hoping.

    I just don't know how they're going to make a decision this year.

     

    QB (2): Flacco, Schaub

    RB (3): Forsett, Taliaferro, Allen

    FB (1): Juszczyk

    WR (8): Smith Sr., Aiken, Perriman, Brown, Butler, Campanaro, Waller, Carter

    TE (3): Gillmore, Williams, Boyle

    OL (10): Monroe, Osemele, Zuttah, Yanda, Wagner, Hurst, Urschel, Myers, Reid, Jensen one or the other

    DL (10): Williams, Jernigan, Canty, Urban (IR), Davis, Guy, Tyson, Lewis-Moore, Bilukidi, and 3 of these guys

    ILB (5): Smith, Mosley, Brown, Orr, McClellan

    OLB (5): Suggs, Dumervil, Upshaw, Smith, Means

    CB (10): Smith, Webb, Arrington, Melvin, Walker, Pointer, Vaughn, Greenwood, Jacobs, Jackson

    S (5): Hill, Lewis, Levine, Trawick, Elam (IR), Perry

    ST (3): Tucker, Koch, Cox

     

    That's 65 guys already that I'd say have a legitimate shot at this roster.  That doesn't even include guys like Fitz Toussaint, Terrence Magee, Tom Nelson, Aldrick Robinson, etc. that would compete for a spot in the typical offseason.  Cuts are going to be so tough this year.

     

    rmw10, If you don't object, your post seems like a great place to track injuries of potential squad member.
