  1. If a team liked him enough to swap a high third round pick for a late 3rd round comp,then a team wouldve been willing to give him a high enough contract to get a 4th rounder.I actually wouldn't put it past a team paying him enough to get us a 3rd after seeing Ricky and Juice become the highest paid players at their positions last month.
  2. This ravens fan is definitely on the John Ross at pick 16 bandwagon which unfortunately means it wont be happening.I would be on the Corey Davis bandwagon but I dont think he'll make it out of the top 10.
  3. I was half way ok when it was Claiborne but this is just annoying.Brandon Carr is not a good player.Brandon Marshall wouldve given us WAY more bang for our buck with that 5 mill a year.Marshall,Wallace,Perriman and Pitta wouldve won alot more games for us than Jimmy Smith,Carr,Weddle and Jefferson will.We had the 17th ranked offense in yards per game and 21st ranked offense in scoring WITH Wagner and Smitty.Why is the front office piling all of our resources into one side of the ball????
  4. Your just looking at our team through non purple lenses.
  5. This is exactly what I've been worrying about.Alot of ravens fans keep saying cornback is our biggest need,I see alot of fans say pass rusher is our biggest need and the front office let two of our best o lineman walk in consecutive years.I'm starting to wonder if any one in Baltimore remembers that theres two sides to the ball.Our offense was the weakest part of our team last year and our offensive line was the weakest group of the team.Yet we still let one of the best players on the group walk in favor of the defense.The line,rb crew,te crew and wr crew all look anemic at the moment.Unless the defense looks like seattles or denvers from a few years ago and can carry the team or we have a few unexpected breakout stars on offense,I'm not expecting a playoff berth.
  6. And now the refs blatantly rob the Texans and give the Raiders another win.Im done with football.DONE!

  7. The Ravens have lost alot of games this year and as a die hard fan I've taken all of them on the chin without excuses,but yesterday was different.Yesterday was the first time of all the losses I felt like the refs were actively influencing the game.It kindve felt like the Ravens were supposed to lose with the amount of iffy calls and non calls that went against us.And to be clear again,I'm not even the type of football fan that even cries refs after games.
  8. We won the head to head so the steelers actually are one and a half games behind us.
  9. PFF is hilarious.They gave Josh McCown a higher rating than Flacco for last Thursday nights game lol.I realize Flacco had about 4 What the heck? moments but I cant take your ratings seriously if you think McCown outplayed Flacco.

      And for the record Im not a "Flacco apologist".Ive always been a fanboy of his,but Ive had moments this year when the thought of the ravens needing to draft a new QB has crossed my mind.

      Flacco had a bad first half so that probably erased whatever "ratings" they gave him in the second. They usually make good points but its subjective so who really cares?

      Don't let you homerism fool you.   You must have completely wiped out the memory of how Flacco played in 1st half.

  10. If I wasn't a ravens fan I'd probably be thinking it wasn't really a catch but I'm glad for him that it was.He needs to work on those hands though.He's had some ugly drops.He dropped a wide open one last night and that almost wasn't a TD.If he can find his way in the second half of this season,that would be the breakthrough this offense needs to get over this slump....Well that along with our o line staying healthy.
  11. Obviously his knee brace got caught in the turf...oh no what if his knee brace getting caught in the turf reinjured his surgically repaired knee...Mallet better not come in here and outperform Flacco in this offense...I wonder what type of draft position we'll get if this is it for his season...Steve Smith can't go out with another season like this...Also Weedle deserves to atleast see the playoffs too...I wonder if Weedle is regretting picking Baltimore over Oakland now...NO NO NO I can't sit through another year of tanking.......OH GOOD GOD HE'S RUNNING BACK OUT ONTO THE FIELD!!!!!
  12. Playing QB for the patriots is so easy.Good protection.Guys running wide open for TDs and making plays.When will it be our turns?

  13. I actually agree with pff for once(I usually hate their opinions),Webb hasn't been great but he hasn't been horrid either.So far he's been just good enough at safety.
  14. Mission number one next offseason needs to be getting Joe back to playing good football again.I know he's not elite but he's better than what we've seen from him in these past two seasons.And he's def better than what we've seen this season.Whatever it is that we had before when he used to play good,we need to get for him again!

  15. The thread title should be changed to "When will Breshad Perriman step up".His dropped deep ball and mis step on the non game winning touchdown lost us that game and is the reason a coach got fired.It was impressive that he got behind the DB on that deep play and managed to create separation and be in position to make that catch vs one of/if not the best CB in the league on the non TD,but I'm tired having to look on the bright side at the potential of guys.Outside of 2010,12 and 14 we always seem to go into the season with guys who have potential at WR.It gets nauseating after a while.Especially when we have to look at how pit finds recievers effortlessly in the mid rounds.Their 4th or 5th round guy is outplaying the guy we drafted in the first round of the same draft.?
  16. I think the front office should start considering a trade for Leary.Before he got benched he was a quality guard and he has a reasonable cap number.
  17. I haven't rewatched that game again(mainly because I'm no rush to rewatch that infuriating loss),but I think Mack was chipped on the sack that he beat Wagner on.It didn't slow him down much.If it wasn't on that play then it was on one of the plays where Joe was hit or sack.
  18. Why is it when Flacco isn't lighting up stat sheets everyone outside of Baltimore accesses his play in a vacuum,but when other top QBs are off the media will bring up WRs  that aren't getting separation,an o line that isn't protecting and everything else.Before week 3 when Aaron Rogers wasn't playing well no one outside of Skip Bayless looked at it as his fault.Do I have a point or am I juseing a homer?

      It's ok to be a homer.

      Homers are the life blood of a place  like this.  My beef is the O co ordinator team.  Slow starts while every top scoring team executes Q1 to 4.  We seem to be playing behind then even rather than taking it to them from the first whistle. Besides this, Ravens special teams have been unlucky. Clearly, this is not a Joe Flacco dilemma. 

      It could be worse for us like Miami or Cleveland fans experience :sofa:

      Big HOMER here.... Flacco does not get the credit he deserves. I believe mostly because during the regular season he just puts up OK numbers for his stat line. But 1 stat line they fail to mention is the W / L  Our Flacco has contributed to a whole lotta W's and in the post-season we have all watched him out-perform the Highly elite QB's Brady and Manning heck if Evans would have chosen to hold onto the football Flacco would have lead the Ravens to 2 Super Bowls.:sponge:

  19. This is a post June 1st cut right?If so it saves us 3 million next season.
  20. PFF ratings and ESPNs QBR Ratings are both garbage to me.They seem to be based more off of emotion and personal opinion than the actual results on the field.The only QB measurement I care about is the NFL's passer rating.Its perfect.Any rating you can't calculate for yourself should be taken with a grain of salt.
  21. That is true of last year, but not "the last several years". This has been going on since 2013.I don't trust our defense at all in two minute situationsLast Sundays game is 50/50 with the offense and defense sharing blame though because the offense still had a shot and only needed to pick up 8 yards more to put Tucker in field goal range but they couldn't do it.
  22. They suck against contenders,but they still match up good enough against us to give us problems.We won't be able to stop Aj Green and Eifert this year,we definitely won't be running the ball against that front and I don't see this WR corps beating Pacman and Kirkpatrick.
  23. Alot of people were asking for him to replace Zuttah.IMO,he wouldnt do any better at center than he does at gaurd.
  24. I hope this game dismantled the mini cult of fans who had a love fest for Jensen going on.
  25. I no longer have faith in this team as a SB contender.We have way too many holes.The messed up part is we're too good to get a high draft pick again like last season but bad enough to know we can't hang with the Patriots,Broncos,Bengals and.......Steelers(almost threw up a little bit admitting that).We have got to get better at drafting skill positions.This isn't the 80s/90s.You wont get far in this league if your db's cant cover in your two minute defense,your RB's can't make anyone miss and your WR's can't beat man coverage.I'm givingthe Oline a pass considering we have two rookies on the line and before today the pass protection was actually decent.
