10-0 the offense is still trying to find itself, but I can't complain about a lead. Keep going like this boys!

I miss Matt Birk.

Say it on r/NFL lol. It is a nest of Patriot fans patronizing everyone

Then they're not Patriots fans. I'm praising their headcoach and culture. I don't even claim, that they didn't deserve to win all those Superbowls, just because they were caught red handed bending the rules. I just state, that Brady ended up in the right system, that made him the QB, that he is. Most so-called "Patriots-fans" aren't actually fans of the New England Patriots. They're just bandwagon Brady homers.

Claiming, that someone who gives Belichick more credit for the Pats wins than Brady (which at this point should be obvious to anyone), is a Patriots hater doesn't make any sense.

Belichick made Brady. End of discussion.

God, I hated the Stanley pick. God, was I wrong. Stanley fo sho.

The Jags are 0-2. They will be desperate to get the W.

QB KNEEL = My favorite play in football

2:53 to score a TD. Oh, man. I don't like it.

He didn't like what he saw on the field. Not a terrible TO

It worked, too. 1st down.

Our run game is super bad.

The defense has really tightened up a lot since that debacle of a 1st quarter. Only a few guys keep struggling but I do think we have done better overall

I feel like the Ravens are a team, that still is trying to find itself. They are taking some really hard swings in terms of play quality.

our secondary is swiss cheese

Elvis is back next week. Hopefully, that will improve our defense.

Ravens have to win first before ya start celebrating. 

No doubt. It's still a close one. Nothing is given in the AFCN.

22 straight points. That is how a good team makes the best out of a bad day and a bad start.

The game's not over. Don't jinx it.

TO was a nightmare in the lockerroom, though.

God, so much complaining. You'd think we lost the game. Trestman was put in an awful situation last year with all the injuries and our offense still looked okay, which lesser OCs probbaly wouldn't be able to pull off with Mallett under center. Give the guy and Joe, who came back from an injury he suffered from 9 month ago, some time to jell.

Seriously, I'm just gratefull Joe is on the field this early. There's really not much I can complain about here.

In his defense, Doomville has thrown fewer season ending INTs than Fitzpatrick.

fitzpatrick is underrated. please dont tell me eric decker is a world beater..hes an average reciever.

Brandon Marshall is, though. And so is Matt Forte.

We are over simplifying this. Its also about how teams match up against each other too and the game plan. So, its hard to say really.

Yup, Jimmy had a down year last season and yet he matched up really well against Antonio Brown (maybe the best WR in the game). Teams can also look different from to game in the NFL. Upsets happen basically every week.

PFF focus has posted its grades. 

I'm surprised at Joe's high grade. IMO I thought he was solid but I don't know if he was this good. He missed some guys, threw flat footed and made some mistakes, I'll probably go back and look at the tape. 

Perriman only saw two targets but also got a good grade, I found that surprising as well.

I know, that the Ravens offense could've played better, but 67% 258yrds and a TD aren't bad.

I agree with everyone, that Joe looked timid and some of those shoestring catches could've been avoided, if he stepped into it, which I hope he'll get over in the next couple of games, but he did throw a beautiful TD pass to Wallace, that throw to BP wasn't half bad either and he made some big plays escaping the pocket. I believe one huge completion went to Aiken, while escaping pressure from Jerry Hughes. It was awesome.

Did we see January Joe? Nope. But I actually feel pretty good with this offense moving forward. Joe is a calm and tough guy. I'm sure he'll eventually get over his injury and how many times will we see a game, where Yanda has TWO false starts? Everyone was a bit off.

Our OL should have an easier time against the Browns. I hope that Sizzle and Flacco will be able to get back to their old selves in this game. Both of them looked a bit timid. I hope the passrush will put more pressure on RG3. Tyrod had sometimes alot of time in the pocket. This game could be a good confidence builder and an opportunity to really get some momentum. Then again, you can never underrate Division opponents. How many times did we all expect the Ravens to dominate Cleveland only to watch a close game?

I really want to watch the All-22 tape when it comes out. Aside from a slightly frustrating run-pass balance, I think Trestman did a good job of taking the plays the Bills secondary gave him. He kept them on their toes a lot in the first half (and that 4th down failure mostly owed to a missed holding call so I don't think that was a trainwreck of a decision), and after a rocky couple of drives he managed to start moving the chains again in the 4th with some solid dink and dunk plays. I agree people are being a little hard on him over the way we stalled in the 3rd. We'll see how things play out from here, but I'm confident we'll look more dynamic as the season wears on.

I'm just glad to see the Ravens make big plays again. This is a dimension, that our offense was lacking last season.

Of we are gonna smash Cleveland. Watched their game vs Philly. They looked like hot steamy garbage from top to bottom.

Good. A game for Joe & Co. to regain their confidence. Really, we could start the season 5-0, imho.

We saw some good runs and some big plays and generated plenty yards and ToP on offense (We had neither last season). I don't know why people are so down on Trestman. It's Joe's first proper NFL game. I see the potential and think that our offense will be just fine. Lets see how things work out against Cleveland.

There's no way he's 100%. He came back really fast from an ACL/MCL tear.

It happened like 9 month ago. That's crazy fast. Good on him, that he return this quickly, ready to get hit.
