  1. [News] Why Football Matters, By John Harbaugh

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    We had probably the best secondary coach in the league with Teryl Austin. He left with Caldwell to be his defensive coordinator, and did a phenomenal job. I always thought losing him was a big factor in Elam declining last season. We had Steve Spagnuolo as our secondary coach last season, and the Giants signed him to be their defensive coordinator. I hope the guy that we promoted to secondary coach is a winner, because that would be crucial with the reviving of our secondary for this season.

  2. [News] Why Football Matters, By John Harbaugh

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    I love our head coach, I like our new offensive coordinator (I need to see him official operate before I can love him), I LOVE our GM, I love our owner, but…. I don't love our defensive coordinator. I think Pees is a good guy, but he is only a decent coach. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy that really interacts with players and fires them up. He calls a good defensive game, but not great, and he calls plays from the booth. There seems to be no x-factor with Pees. Rex Ryan and Chuck Pagano were both loved by their players and had good relationships with them, plus they were very aggressive play callers, which I loved. Pees seems pretty average in those departments, to me at least. He is not a bad coach, and he does not deserve to get fired, but he is the only coach/management piece of our organization that I wish we could upgrade.

  3. [News] Why Football Matters, By John Harbaugh

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    John Harbaugh is a great coach, not because of his career record or football intelligence, but because of his heart. He is a gentle soul, and he genuinely cares for his players/coaches. That is why it is so hard for him to let go of players/coaches who are struggling (Cam Cameron). The players notice this, and that is why we are one of the hardest playing teams, especially in the playoffs. To be a good unit, one must believe in their leader, and this team would die for John. Go Ravens. Go John.

  4. Ravens Signings and Re-signings (actual and speculation)

    RavensReck27 replied to Moderator 3's topic in Ravens Talk

    Wow! We got a heck of a deal for Forsett. 3 mil a year for him is a steal after a a pro-bowl year. The Colts gave Frank Gore 4mil a year, and he has A LOT more milage on him. I am very glad that we got this taken care of.

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    Well our defensive line is going to be incredible this year at least

  6. [News] Round 1: Ravens Select LB C.J. Mosley

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    This is the deepest draft class in ages. Mosley was a projected top 10 pick after the combine. In a normal draft year, he might have gone as high as a top 5 pick. It is his work ethic, and leadership abilities that make me confident that this guy is a great player.

  7. If Mike Evans and/or Eric Ebron are gone by the time we pick in the first round definitely draft Calvin Pryor. If all 3 are taken I DO NOT want us to draft Haha Clinton-DIx, because I truly believe he had bust written all over him. He played against SEC QBs whom are average for college standards. The only quality QB he faced was Johnny Manziel, and he torched Alabama's secondary two years in a row. He lives off the Alabama pass rush for big plays, and he was suspended because he was g...

      As far as Reid goes, having two shutdown cornerbacks definitely helped him. It allowed him to just roam free of worry of missed assignments or blown coverage. Without those two, he had more responsibility and it showed some

      JoeyFlex, I believe in something along that line as well. Anything can happen, but he has too many question marks to be confident that he will last.

    Steve Smith to answer the second half of your statement.

    Gronk.

  10. [News] 2014 Ravens Free Agency Rumor Mill

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    Edleman had one good year and so many of you are acting like he is going to be the savior. Remember Gronk was hurt, Amendola was hurt, and it was either Edleman or 2 other rookies for Brady to pass to. Acting like he is the truth, but in all honesty we would be better off just drafting a wide receiver in the 2nd round of this deep draft class instead of overpaying for Edleman. If he is that big of a game changer at the level that some of you expect, then the Pats would have gone out of their way to keep him. We have more important holes to fill, and cheaper receivers out there.

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    True, except for the fact that the Dolphins already signed him for a 1-year contract yesterday.

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    Now that the Saints have signed S Byrd, and the Steelers signed S Mitchell, I believe we will now sign TE Owen Daniels, or WR Steve Smith (hopefully both). Then draft either S Clinton-Dix or S Calvin Pryor in the first round, and maybe bring in a veteran safety at a minimum type amount, such as Champ Bailey, Ed Reed, maybe even Ryan Clark, to guide the young Defensive Backs, and be a safety blanket incase our new Rookie Safety is not completely ready to start. Then draft a young Receiver in the 2nd round, and a young RB in the 3rd.

  13. [News] Ravens Re-Sign Tackle Eugene Monroe

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    I am so excited to see who we sign next that I am antsy! I keep checking the site like every 15 minutes. Most excited I have been for an offseason, probably because we had a great start with Monroe, and now we have about 16Mil left for Ozzie to scheme with... So many different options! I can't wait to see who will be the next player getting fitted for his Ravens uniform.

  14. [News] 2014 Ravens Free Agency Rumor Mill

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    If we are going to get any RB in Free Agency this offseason it has to be Darren Sproles. The amount of check downs Joe Flacco does requires a RB with good hands, and the ability to take off right away; that is Darren Sproles specialty. Rice has lost a step in this department sadly. If Ozzie thinks Sproles will cost to much, or we spend cap money elsewhere, then we are definitely drafting a young RB in the 3rd round.

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    If we could get WR Steve Smith for a bargain, and TE Owen Daniels for a discount (due to age, and history with Kubiak) that would be AWESOME.

  18. [News] Ravens Re-Sign Tackle Eugene Monroe

    RavensReck27 replied to BR News's topic in News

    Huge weight off our shoulders! Got a quality franchise LT for a fair price, and another plus is that we didn't waste a 4th and 5th round pick now.

  19. We have two great Running Backs, and arguably the best Fullback in the league. We have Yanda and two giants for tackles. So why is our run game slacking? Because of the play calling! A repetition of right up the middle is so unhealthy for a good run game. They need to switch it up and keep defenses guessing! There needs to be stretch plays, and pitches, and counters etc. That is why the teams that use the read option are so successful with the run game (Eagles, Seahawks, Redski...

      We got rid of Cam because he didn't know how to use Boldin and Pitta, and he ran the ball on 3rd and 7.

      Let Rice bounce it to the outside, let Pierce run it up the gut. Let Leach create the holes. Same scheme we ran with Rice & McGahee. (I miss Willis at times.)

  20. Ravens D is heading in the direction to be like our old defense, and I'm talking about the Ray Lewis in his prime defense!

  21. Just feelin sick to my stomach about this Dallas game, Ray and Webb are hurt and our defense looked off point. Whether are players are just out of it or if Dean Pees is the problem is still debating in my mind. Very bittersweet day.
