Wrong. You wouldn't be getting "a fresh perspective" or anything different. DeCosta has been working the draft hand in hand with Ozzie, and that means the missed picks are on him too. Not 1 man shoulders the blame here and our owner backs that up.

Agree to your division reference. I would love to see re-alignment of divisions. Imagine if AFC North consisted of Baltimore, Pittsburgh, New England and Cinci. No way New England sweeps every year. I have always stated that being in that weak division helps them greatly.

I don't think that ruffled his feathers at all. Harbaugh has been around long enough to know that when a Head Coach is hired he usually takes "his guys" with him. Was he disappointed ? sure but nothing about his ego will stop him from calling Dennison IF that is the direction that he wants to go. He knows that he needs to get it right whatever he decides for next season because his seat is getting warmer.

In reality, I think most of us feel that way. There are always going to be hate mongers on here that think they know it all as to what should be done. I agree with Bisciotti's assessment that firing people all the time is not a good way to run a business. If some on these boards had their way every coach would have fired even in 2012 Superbowl win. Changes will be made and I believe that the balanced offence will happen. I trust in our owner and believe that all personnel gets that he will give all the tools and support needed to be successful and that he can only be so patient. Some self proclaimed fans want to pay every player and not lose them, that is impossible. They want everybody fired after a down season and as our owner stated, that is just not how we do things here. We are not the Cleveland Browns, we are the RAVENS! Fans (if they truly are) need to have faith and hold on because this ship will sail.

Really? With Correa? What have you seen from him in his NFL experience that makes you think he "can handle it"? He has shown nothing. If he could have handled it wouldn't he have made it to active roster more?

So figure that out. If the changes that we have made have not made us better , then it would be logical to assume that changes are needed in the areas that haven't been changed. Eventually the common denominator shows itself.

I thought it was his Achilles?

I agree that Rick Dennison should be at or near the top of our list for OC. I believe he was Flacco's Qb coach when Kubiak was here. He worked on Flacco's mechanics from day 1.

We need Sizzle or Doom to put a hit on Big Ben just like Bart Scott did! Priceless https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjXuYqXvojRAhWF7yYKHd3wAzAQtwIIIjAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DZHIXQzY-TEw&usg=AFQjCNGtcL6saszuv1mVwyk7isC2n_PWJQ&bvm=bv.142059868,d.eWE

Sometimes, the ones you don't worry about, end up being the hero. All bases need to be covered. This is a Playoff game. Full steam ahead and if there was ever a time to start fast and score a lot this is it. AND if we do jump out to a big lead PLease do not go to a Prevent Defense in the 4th Qtr. I think it was Parcells that said "the only thing it prevents is ;you from winning"

That is a good point. I think there will be a few Personal Fouls called in this game. Just have to watch out that nobody gets ejected. This could be a Flag Fest. Hope not.

I would have put Lamar Woodley on the list before Jeff Reed. Who remembers that Woodley was asked if the Ravens could win a Super Bowl with Flacco and he answered "Not in my lifetime! Then Flacco and the Ravens went out and DID IT!. Priceless.

This game, these two teams will beat the snot out of each other even more because of the implications this game has. Just hope we will be healthy enough to play the last week. lol. The blood and guts will be flying.

Weird. In the same game, Flacco "doesn't see" the defender on a bonehead play but that throw to SSS was beautiful!

My question is why is he starting over Zachary Orr? Performance wise Orr has been better. I wonder if he is in the doghouse? Haven't heard about a injury. I cant figure it out.

They don't have any other choice than to say they are confident do they?

Look again. It was definitely taunting head butt. Very stupid penalty. Guess it was "caught up in the moment" thing.

For real. People getting on Ray for criticizing Flacco but people on here do it all the time. Go figure. The man does have a tad of experience.

I agree with you except I don't think we are THAT young. Suggs, Doom, Smith, Wallace, Webb, Weddle, Flacco, Pitta, Cox, Hester, Koch, Levine, McCellan, Powers, J. Smith, Zuttah are eithr right at 30 or older. Doesn't mean they don't preform, just not as young as you might think.

Regular or not-We have beaten them in Foxboro which most teams haven't done. I like our chances and think that Flacco will have his best game of the year. It should be close. Need to get past Miami first.

I wouldn't say it is likely a loss. We have always played them well and have beaten them more than most teams. Same story as always, as long as we can get to Brady and rattle him we can win. Flacco always seems to go next level when facing Brady, and with more weapons this time around, it should be a good game. I can tell you this--If Brady went to block against us as he did against the Jets, we would have destroyed him and not wussed out on hitting him like they did. Nobody likes hitting Brady more than Sizzle.

TE's and WR's beware-You are facing Burfict this week. The leagues dirtiest player.

The way we are playing, 7-9 looks to be right. Putting up a "darn good fight" doesn't get the "W".

Not so sure that this season isn't a losing season. We are not getting better each week. Just saying, gotta be a realist

Well consider this- We have only beaten teams with losing records and bad teams at that. Come playoffs there are not any of those teams left to play.
