  1. A question to Harbs, can you tell us if SSS and Camp injured? Harb's answer: "I don't know what you're talking about."
  2. Camp injured? No... Seriously, I hope the young man heals. Here with go again with Oz's philosophy of "renting a receiver."
  3. Legatron was taken- let's keep calling him money man
  4. I hope Ozzie doesn't cheap out on Tucker, thinking that he'll give the Ravens a hometown discount...
  5. No offense, Byrne, but we still have a long way to go... Definitely enjoy this win and ride it as long as you can before we lose the next one... Had Big Ben played yesterday, we surely would've lost with the talent we currently have. With that said, it was a good win, but we're also 1-3 right now, and the whole we dug is still huge and one we might not be able to get out of. There's still a tremendous amount of doubt regarding players/ coaches- we'll see how this plays out.
  6. Great win by the Ravens. Heroes of the game were both Justins. Camp injured again? For real? No.... hope he gets better bc we'll need him next week with SSS possibly being out Daryl Smith (way under appreciated) and Will Hill seemed to have big hits and big games First time I've seen our team really have that fire and emotion this year- that was awesome and I hope they can carry through Still think we'll need better corners and wrs to compete with the Broncos, Pats of the world- hopefully, im proven wrong. Overall, great win, solid effort by all players
  7. Campanero injured again? No...
  8. Ozzie- you are one of the best at drafting lineman and linebackers, but please defer to others when selecting skilled positions. Also, who cares if we have 47 picks for one year's draft- if none of these later players pan out, then what's the difference. Matt Elam anyone?
  9. As usual, Ozzie will be going into his standard "rent a receiver" mode, and he's now calling Jerry Rice, Art Monk, and Randy Moss. Ozzie- Regarding Perriman, really? We don't have one deep threat on this team because you got rid of both Torrey and Jacoby, and our #1 receiver, SSS, will be burned out after 6 more games. Thanks, Ozzie, for not properly having at least 2 burners wide receivers on this team, and thanks for not drafting/ getting us any solid corners. Eric- You ready to step up now? I don't think you could do any worse- someone mentioned Oz only drafted one pro bowler in the past 7 years (and that was just last year). Different times require different leadership perhaps. Everyone saw this coming except for Ozzie and the FO I guess.
  10. Who is Perriman? Never saw him and never heard of him... Does anyone know who Perriman is? Maybe Ozzie knows... I 100% agree with Bedard's assessment on flacco- this is why he's not elite (no offense, Joe).
  11. We would've had the money for Torrey Smith if we didn't keep SSS. Why wouldn't Ozzie want to keep a young, developing receiver and spend millions of dollars for a 36 year old receiver in SSS? We knew Steve Smith was going to retire at some point- he can't play much longer. I'm sure Ozzie realizes his huge mistake now, but it wouldn't been good to keep Torrey- Ozzie has to get this "rent a receiver" mentality out of his head. In regards to Torrey Smith's current performance with the 49ers, let's all please remember that he has Kapernick throwing to him (another RG3) and that the 49ers lost a ton of talent this year and aren't the same team (as we are now) a year or two ago. At least when Torrey was around, he would get huge gains off of PI calls- he lead the league last year for most PI yards gained- so let's not say his production was down last year- and he opened up everything for the other receivers- that's why Flacco posted career numbers last year with the passing game. Does this now make sense for everybody in realizing how valuable Torrey was? Ozzie, at the very least, we should have at least kept Jacoby, then we wouldn't have to even consider putting our only legitimate receiver, SSS, as our punt returner.
  12. I will admit that we've been spoiled with all the success Harbs/ Ravens have had, but I think all the fans saw that we needed better corners and perhaps a new D coordinator as well as the need to keep some speed at the wr position last year-- and we did nothing to resolve any of this for this year - there have been way too many 4 quarter collapses this year and last year.
  13. Even Justin Tucker missed a field goal last week- he's got to stop singing opera songs for royal farms and concentrate on that swing. the whole team is not as good as advertised- it's either talent or coaching that's the issue- you pick.
  14. Oh yeah, our defense is horrendous too. Also, do we get to blame Juan Castillo again for the offensive line? He was getting a lot of heat two years ago, but then he got praise last year (under Kubiak). Now that Kubiak is gone, and our offensive line can't replicate last year's performance, with virtually the same personel, it implies that Kubiak was a genius and Juan and Trestman are back to the old days of Caldwwell and Trestman
  15. I'm not saying he should blow millions of dollars on a #1 type of receiver, but rather, we should keep our decent ones (anquan and torrey). He has to stop his 'rent a receiver' philosophy and just settle down/ pay up (reasonably). How is flacco going to be elite if he can't ever build chemistry with any of his receivers- all of them are gone in 2-4 years??
  16. Don't also forget that Jacoby was relatively cheap. Do we really want our best and only capable wide receiver, SSS, fielding punts? That was a huge mistake by Ozzie/ Coaching to let something like that happen as well. If SSS goes down, we'll go 0-16, and then people will finally confirm Flacco isn't elite. He's good but not elite. An elite qb would've won 1-2 of our past 3 games regardless of the who our receivers are.
  17. UnitedWeFall19- Please do some homework- the $40M was not fully guaranteed. Torrey wanted to stay, and if we were close, or if Oz gave more guaranteed years, he still would be here today. I never said he was a #1, but he was a Raven, he played like a Raven. Maybe that's why our receivers stink because of the leadership he brought to the group- you can't just measure how much someone should be paid on performance. You can talk about that last Patriots catch, which was uncatchable, but don't tell me he provided some of those most clutch catches against the Steelers and his performance against the Patriots when his brother passed. His leadership is missed- look at us now- who is a clear leader with Suggs down? All the younger receivers looked up to him. Let's also remember that Steve Smith dropped/ mishandled two game winning drops over the past week as well- had that been Torrey, in those big game situations, I felt like he would've caught them since he did in the past. You can also say he wasn't productive last year, but you're wrong in that regard too. He wasn't targeted as much. However, UnitedColorsofBenetton17, he led the league in most yards created off of pass interference plays. Also, with Joe throwing for career highs last year, do you not think Torrey allowed other receivers to get open because he truly took the top off of defenses and they had to respect his speed? Please do your research before you make incomplete observations. Perriman hasn't proven anything- he can't even get off his hospital bed. Ozzie took a huge gamble by having one burner on the team (by letting both Jacoby and Torrey go), and it outright failed. He's not had any true success at drafting a true #1 receiver, so I didn't think Perriman wouldn't have turned out to be someone like AJ Green- remember, he had issues during the preseason with dropping balls- that's typically not good for a receiver.
  18. Go figure, we really need quality corners and wide receivers, but we select tight ends in the first five rounds of this year's draft. smh.. good bye, Pitta, i guess
  19. We miss you, Torrey. You were one of us, a supposed 'Raven,'because you played injured, you left it all on the field, and there was no other Raven that served our community better. We apologize that Ozzie didn't want to give you an extra $1-2M/year because he thought 36 year old SSS would last all of this year and be supported by our third tier receivers after him. We know he likes to 'rent a receiver,' than pay a receiver, whether it's Derrick Mason, Mark Clayton, Anquan, Jacoby, Torrey, and in a couple of years, Perriman if he ever becomes as good as Torrey or if he ever gets off his hospital bed. Perhaps, now Oz will see the light and start paying $$$ for some skilled positions like WR and stop overpaying for corners who aren't really shutdown corners- Webb and J Smith-- well, they are shutdown in the sense that they spend more time in hospital beds than the football field. Let Ozzie continue to draft defensive/ offensive lineman/linebackers, but please don't let him draft any skilled positions.. We're also 0-6 for picking a stud safety as well.. Matt Elam who?
  20. What's also awesome was that baltimoreravens.com and the coaches were saying Aiken, Camp, and Brown were having awesome camps/ pre-seasons... this was probably why they didn't further address the WR position.. What's awesome is that our supposedly legitimate WRs were going up against our crappy secondary- lol.... of course they looked like All Pros agsinst our secondary. Once we started to play other teams, we then started seeing the truth, realizing both our CBs and WRs weren't as good as advertised by coaches and baltimoreravens.com- how wrong were we? Even when people picked us to go to the Super Bowl, I was shm because I knew we were exposed with our CBs and WRs...awesome..
  21. I've been saying it ever since we let our two burners go (Jacoby and Torrey) that it was stupid on Ozzie to let them both go. Ozzie made a huge gamble two ways: 1) thinking that he can replace Torrey with Perriman, and 2) Have a roster with just one burner (supposedly Perriman). How sad is it to say that our best receiver is a 36 year old (and SSS is awesome), but he's not a burner and he'll wear out by mid-season. After SSS, we pretty much have scrubs as the rest of the receivers. No offense to Camp, but he's not the answer either, and he's like Ladarrius and Jimmy Smith- can't see the field too much because he's in the hospital bed all the time. If Flacco was elite, he's not, then he would've willed some wins with our third tier receivers. I'm also sick of Ozzie's approach of "rent a receiver" every year. We should've kept Torrey, he was one of us, and at least he was clutch and opened up the passing game for others. Ozzie must have thought Perriman would've been able to do the same as Torrey, but he wasn't proven yet, nor could he get out of the hospital bed either- Ozzie, let's be for real, and let's pay some $$ to the skilled positions. Ozzie and the whole team and all the coaches are to blame for this season- I predicted 0-3 all along, but at least we'll win the next one wit Big Ben out. If not, then I can't wait to see how baltimoreravens.com tries to spin the next loss- awesome..
  22. Joe Flacco Wishes Ben Roethlisberger Was Playing.. Why?? So we can go 0-4??
  23. J Smith ain't elite, nor is J Flacco elite. If Flacco was elite, then he would've been able to pull us from behind to win one or two of these past games. Otherwise, Flacco is elite but not with the funny cast he has with WRs. Why does Ozzie continue to think that he can find "value" with free agency or draft (typically drafting third round or after) for corners and receivers??? Time to stop drafting lineman and linebackers in the first round and the Bama players thereafter...
  24. 6 players that give you hope? I noticed no one from the secondary was part of the 6 players- that's troublesome, esp coming from baltimoreravens.com
  25. We should not have let Corey Graham go.
