  1. I was really hoping for Barnett.  I really wanted the Ravens to pick up an edge rusher, but that didn't happen.  While I wasn't overwhelmed by the Humphrey pick, I was not disappointed either.  My thought is Cornerbacks come at a premium in this league.  You can never have enough Cornerbacks.  With Bryant, Green, and now Ross to worry about, we need to be able to cover all the good receivers we face in the AFC North.

  2. The good: The Flacco to Wallace and Pitta Connections.  Peddle and Mosley interceptions.

    The Bad: The offense coming out flat and going scoreless for 4 straight drives and waiting until the 2nd quarter to score.  The defense giving up 2 straight TDs to the Browns.  We can't wait until the 2nd quarter to produce against to caliber teams.

    The awful: The Browns blowing a 20 point lead.  We honestly had no business winning this game.  I'd argue we didn't beat the Browns, the Browns beat themselves.  They panicked when the Ravens started scoring.  Forced things and committed some horrible penalties.  They really shot themselves in the foot.

  3. http://espn.go.com/blog/baltimore-ravens/post/_/id/24791/2016-baltimore-ravens-home-and-away-opponents-determined

    The Baltimore Ravens' 20-17 win placed the Ravens third in the AFC North division and helped finalize their 2016 home and away opponents. The dates of each game will be determined in April when the full regular-season schedule is released.

    Home opponents (*playoff team): Buffalo, Miami, Philadelphia, Washington*, Oakland, Cleveland, Cincinnati* and Pittsburgh

    Away opponents: New England*, New York Jets, Dallas, New York Giants, Jacksonville, Cleveland, Cincinnati* and Pittsburgh

    My take: If nothing else, the travel is going to be a lot smoother in 2016. After flying four times out west in the first two months of this season, the Ravens have only one away game outside of their time zone (Dallas) next year. The schedule doesn't look as tough as this year. Right now, Baltimore has only four games against playoff teams. It will be decidedly easier if the NFC East has another down season.
