If we go 3-0 over the first games of the season then I'm confident we should be okay for the rest of the year.

But our offense has to put more points on the board. They churned out some yards, sure, but they need to finish drives.

Things I learned:

1. Flacco is back!! As is Steve Smith, Forsett, Suggs, etc!
2. Mike Wallace was a good pickup
3. Our defense is pretty awesome, granted it was the Bills but still.
4. The offense needs to produce more. An extra TD or two to score would've made things easier on the team and us fans.
5. Throw the ball away instead of taking more sacks.
6. That one play where Tyrod used magic to escape a sack cannot happen again. Next time might be the game for them.

Suggs' comments almost make me miss the days when he, Ray and Ed would beat on Hines Ward and Rashard Mendenhall.

Also I like his Winter Soldier outfit.

Definitely agree on the issues with younger athletes coming to the NFL, their talents in college aren't always 100% translating to the pros.

Strangely enough, I'm looking forward to Z. Smith more than Doom. Granted, we all know what Doom can do over his career but I'm more interesting in seeing how fleshed out Z can be.

I'm guessing Forsett's age is the reason he got cut?

Forsett and Terrence Brooks are gone? Unexpected.

I would've thought Perriman would sit all preseason and maybe get a few reps in the regular season opener just to see if he can handle it.

Sorry, but I still can't see how Buck Allen was balling it out. He had one great play out of seven.

I'm sure he'll do much better in next games and in regular season, but to start off by saying "After watching not one, not two, but three young running backs ball out..." is just ludicrous.

If Allen's first performance is considered balling then I have some bad news, friend.

No dissing, all I'm trying to say is let the kid really perform in one of his next games with some crunching runs and similar catches, then you'll have real reason to say how he "ball out".

Word. If anyone was balling it was both Dixon and West, both of whom should make the team if what we see continues. As for Allen I kinda wanna chalk that up as not doing a whole lot to avoid getting hurt in preseason, though you could say that about anybody.

FOOTBALL IS BACK!! And I'm loving it!

lets not leave out Moore.  I see him as having decent ability in year one.  Keenan Reynolds is really raw at this point, but I love his work ethic.

Oh, Moore might very well be that guy we need, but I wanna see it for myself come preseason. 

*sigh* He needs all the help he can get.

Also, the writer made an error and called him a "2014 first-round pick," when we got him in 2015.

If Perriman's out for the year again then I see Steve Smith, Kamar Aiken, Mike Wallace, Keenan Reynolds, Campanaro and Jeremy Butler as the WRs who will lead our team.

I saw some of Kenneth Dixon's highlights and game tapes, that there is pretty impressive.

He shed some weight, that's cool. Now he needs to shed some tackles.

Umm.....didn't the Terps football team have a very similar design to the Ravens' supposed color rush one?

I actually don't mind this schedule at all, though why we have to go to Cincy for the season finale again I don't know.

Indy? That's an interesting choice for a week 2 preseason game.

So basically our WRs were likeliest to keep are Steve Smith, Perriman, Kamar Aiken, Mike Wallace, Campanaro and Jeremy Butler.

Initially, I thought Martavis Bryant being suspended was great for us, and it is. Of course that means someone else who might be potentially better can replace him. 

I'd rather just draft another receiver.

Flacco gets to stay/retire with the Ravens, KO might stay too, and I'm okay with all of that.

I'm just upset that the Panthers that played last night didn't look anything like the ones that were almost unstoppable all season long.

There's no way Von Miller leaves the Broncos, after the last 5 years he's had.

I thought that the Cards would make it a close game yesterday, boy was I wrong. In any case congrats to Cam and the Panthers, now go win that SB.
