Purple Punishment

Not to be rude, but whomever decided that FB and Twitter were better vessels for fans to connect, needs to have their head examined. I come here for quality football talk and I will certainly not get it anywhere else because I DONT HAVE A FREAKING SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT. I can't wait to have out quality community here battle with twitter trolls and give up on team social media.

Can you share the URL??

I joined this site in 2008 when I was deployed and the ravens were on their way to the playoffs. I literally lived in this forum in my downtime and I learned A TON about the game of football as broken down by our members. I feel it's a real mistake to move away from this as BR.com is looked at by all Ravens fans. I don't have social media accounts so I guess the terribly written articles at NFL.com will be my comfort now I remember this forum being much more active than now. However there is still a lot of activity here. I seriously hope the powers that be will reconsider..... if if anyone decides to make a Flock 2.0 board. I'll happily join and support in any manner I can

OZZIE! You know what to do

Vikings are not exercising the $18M option for Adrian Peterson as per nfl.com He will be a free agent. Wonder who overpays for him? Oakland? NYG? Green Bay?

Exactly! The falcons offense couldn't stay on the field and the defense eventually got gassed! They looked completely exhausted on the GW drive

With that said, do you think The Pats have been so good because they had the foresight of what was coming in the league and evolved before the rest of the NFL

This scene comes to mind with what Brady did to the Falcons. Totally torched them. I hate to admit it but he played the best game of his life last night! He's the GOAT. A freaking 6th rounder oh the movie scene

A down vote for telling the truth about the abysmal tail spin we have been on and the inevitable crash landing that awaits? Pathetic. unless we nail the draft, we start next season 0-until we play the browns....and they might even be better

Juan isn't the problem. It's abandoning the run because your banged up offensive line cannot run block well. Joe hitting the check down Charlie because the line isn't great at pass blocking either. When healthy we are a force! When unhealthy, just reference how a team performs with backups like Connor Cook for the raiders coming up soon. Both coaches should've been canned. To quote Brandon Marshall: "The best way I can describe it is, having a diaper on and never changing it. And just sitting in that diaper".

Didn't we sign Wallace after the draft happened? Meaning we didn't draft Moore to replace him?

Even if it wasn't his scheme, he relented to run the damn football and we lost games due to that inability to do so

Yes because whoever said let's trade back and not take Noah Spence because Correa is a game changer, needs to be canned

Matt Patricia is gonna be a hot name

He didn't get the ring he deserved

Steve Smith won't be back. I'm 89 percent sure of it

Down with little time in an absolutely meaningless game and you got the stud of your defense playing still

Excellent execution on that short crossing route and way to fight for that TD Breshard

89 percent.... So so you're saying there's a chance

Our problem is talent evaluation and scouting. We haven't nailed a draft in forever. We've missed the mark on way too many picks since our 2012 season. Taking chances on developmental players with top picks is a testament to the ability of our scouts. Everyone says it's Ozzies fault, ultimately it does fall on him. We don't have the same scouts we had when we put together monster defenses. We need a better scout team

Ozzie had plenty of time to draft quality players, what did he give us? Matt Elam, Art Brown, Kamalei Correa. Should he be done, giving Harbaugh a bunch of weak players and saying make chicken salad out of... Harbaugh doesn't build the team, he makes cuts and employs a coaching staff, and tries to put the best product on the field. He gives us the best of what Ozzie gave him

That's because our organization praises high character players now without questionable backgrounds. We need game changers, not ice cream men

I think he performed at an average level. I don't think he sucked but he's clearly not worth his salary with the throws he's attempting

Marino, Elway, and Kelly would like to have a talk about this

You don't pass on him. We got cute thinking Kevin Dodd would have fallen to us in the second, then we traded back thinking Spence would be there and we got served a big helping of yet again another Bad Pick
