  1. I have a super non fast 04 Silverado Z71. I don't know why, but I love that truck. I bought it for an insane low price from someone that I know because it also had been babied.. (50k miles at the time in 2013) At first I just couldn't get past that funky front end..but it's grown on me. It rides like a freaking Caddy compared to my Wrangler. LOL
  2. Or violins,cellos, upright bass, sitar, harp, ect.. there's a ton of different wooden things with strings...marionetts...lmao...jk
  3. Oh no id never pick him over Schaub either. Im also not giving him a free pass..I said he's not a great quarterback. I do think that teams would be more willing to give him the opportunity to develop if the hype machine would die down a little bit. The circus that follows him and all of the attention has got to be a huge distraction.
  4. With Billick, it wasn't because there was some sense that the locker room was lost. It was gone completely. Plus there was his refusal to give up hope on Boller. Also, Billick was hired because of his track record in Minnesota with that monster offense. The exact opposite happened. Then there was the fact that the Ravens not only couldn't make the playoffs two years in a row..there were some really ugly 5-11's and 6-10's in there. While the Ravens did have a little bit of a letdown season in 2013, they still finished 8-8 and we're playing for a playoff spot in week 17. This year, they could have never in a million years fathomed that the season would play out like this. Starter after starter dropping like flys, all of the nonsensical calls that have gone against us, the balls that have both literally and figuratively bounced the wrong way..mixed in with some sub par performances from players who we all know are capable of much more. Still, a few breaks go the other way and the Ravens are close to an even record right now..a few more healthy impact players..and who knows? Maybe they are making a playoff run. We live in a society where SOMEONE has to be blamed in every instance, I hate it. If it's not the coach, it's the quarterback, if it's not those two It's one of the coordinators, if not them then it's the GM..on down the line. People need to relax and realize that no one coach or player caused this. Therefore no one person can be judged for it either. At the end of the day, this team will have both barrels loaded next season once again, and we'll move forward. No reason for all of the nonsense
  5. I hate that people make fun of Tebow, He's religious....I personally am not, but I don't judge anyone for it, he doesn't get arrested, or KO his wife or anything that some of these guys do. I watched all of the Eagles pre season games, I'll say this. I thought they should have kept him over Sanchez. Tebow isn't a great qb, but he is also smart, takes care of the ball and takes what the defense gives him. That's why he beat the Steelers In the playoffs a few years ago.
  6. What even happened to Matt Schaub? It's like he was putting up a ton of numbers, and Houston was a SB favorite at one point in 2012..then he fell apart mid season and never recovered. I've never heard anyone explain it.
  7. Dude seriously. I played Hocckey at a high level once. A nasty ACL pretty much is what ended that for me. On the scale of things that I've experienced that hurt...that one is definitely one of the worst.
  8. I don't believe the team lacks discipline, however they are starting some guys who just aren't good enough normally to be on this team. Lack of talent and experience I believe is the head of that snake. Also, these guys aren't Ravens. They are warm bodies to fill a uniform for the next month or so.
  9. Realistically, it will take a few in a row to get him fired. Harbaugh isn't going anywhere. The small portion of people here questioning him are the few that were for some god awful reason holding out hope that the playoffs were still a miracle away. They are going through that emotional finger pointing phase. .. Blame Harbaugh...because Justin Tucker's kick got blown by the wind from 50 plus yards... Blame Harbaugh.... He lost control of the team..because ray made a speech so obviously it was a desperate bid to gain control. Blame Harbaugh..his training camps are too tough so that's why Joe is hurt. Blah blah blah. I really only come here for a good laugh, because these posts and post-ers just keep getting more ridiculous.
  10. Where do you get your information that he's not an X's and O's guy? Because he wasn't a coordinator before being a coach? He wouldn't have been hired if he didn't know the game in and out. Also the statement about having Ray come back to gain control of the team is a bit off base. A team that has quit doesn't have a chance to win EVERY single game that they've played. Even with all of the missing starters, they play every game tough and compete down to the wire. T They are losing those close games because they have a HUGE deficiency in talent right now. If anything, Give Harbaugh some credit for having this team still playing to win,
  11. To answer the OP's Original question. No. This is a season that not only has been just decimated by injuries from the start, but some terrible luck has also played part in it too. Every one of our games had been within 1 score..that is historic. It also tells me that even with all of these players in and out of the lineup, the team has been able to have an opportunity to win every game they've played. If we we had all hands on deck, we are probably all but guaranteed a playoff spot by now. Let's hope for some good things in the draft, and also hope Ozzie can find some quality FA talent to fill the gaps. The core of this team is strong...I wouldn't be surprised at all to see an 11-5 turnaround like after the 07 debacle. In a glass half full sense, now they are truly going to be able to evaluate some guys..those that are worth keeping will have that much more experience going into next season. They will also be able to make some decisions on who needs to go (Monroe. .cough cough. .)
  12. I was laughing yesterday because some idiot "reporter" yesterday tweeted something hilarious that came up in my BR stream. He said "Ravens may be a candidate now to trade for Kaepernick..Harbaugh connection" WOW really? Never in a million years. Moving forward, they are going to have to have a contingency plan of Joe isn't ready to start the season. If that's Schaub or someone else..I don't care. But they will need SOMEONE who can actually start for the first few weeks..and just hope the NFL doesn't lay down the gauntlet for us On the schedule.
  13. Here's what I want to see. I want to see Schaub play well enough to earn an invitation back this summer. We will need some sort of quality QB as a contingency plan if Flacco isn't ready to start next season.
  14. No doubt.Joe is a fighter and he'll come back just fine. Jeeze, look at Carson Palmer how many blown out knees has he had? They say that the repaired ACL should actually be stronger than it was pre injury so long as you let it heal.
  15. Challenge accepted. I will shotgun a beer for a pick 6
  16. If it's definitely torn he'll need surgery. He may start the season on PUP.
  17. Heartbreaking. Heartbreaking for Forsett too. I'm going to puke when I see Schaub take his first snap.
  18. Why did someone cover the beautiful Original pine floors in my house with 1/4 inch plywood and funky paint splatter pattern asbestos tile....whyyyyyy. Getting this stuff up has aged me 10 years I'm convinced
  19. That's awesome, you just never know! Or else you drop 1500 on a head that you are convinced is going to be killer, and it turns out to be total junk....like I did less than a year ago.
  20. I've been beating this drum for a while. Webb is a perfect fit at FS.
  21. I mean, he was a safety in College. I think he could do welll there. After all of his injuries, I just don't think he can stay with some of these receivers...I mean he's making a ton of money, may as well and if it works out Harbaugh looks like a genius..if it doesn't, it can't be any worse as you said. I'm all for it.
  22. I think it's 50/50 that Smithy will retire. He's such a fierce competitor that I doubt he wants to go out like this..so him coming back for one more tryear wouldn't surprise me. Suggs-Will be back. Pitta-I'm actually hoping for his own sake that he retires. Blowing your hip out twice before you are 30 isn't good. I understand the competitive fire though. As far as Webb goes- You are right, nobody is going to take on that contract because he is A)Playing like crap. Once he finally gets over the last injury and starts balking out he will come up with a hamstring or an ACL or back injury. Dude can't stay healthy....Honestly..I think this summer they should try him out at FS..maybe that sparks something.
  23. THANK YOU Here's the problem. 95 percent of people on this board really know absolutely nothing about football. I've been saying almost the same thing ad nauseum for 2 years now. Here's a good example for people to marinate on. Greg Mattison..had a STACKED defense. He was WAAAY more conservative with play calls than Dean Pees..had a TOP 10...TOP 10 defense both seasons..why? Because he had a talented defense on the field who executed regardless of the play call. Also you are absolutely 100 percent correct in stating that he has actually been blitzing more this season than last.
  24. To me, this offense looks a lot more like his offense than Gary Kubiak's. I mean they are both based on the West Coast system..so there will be similar things. He HAS gone to more of Kubiak's outside zone runs which is the strength of our running game.
  25. There's no way they fire Marc Trestman. The offense,incase you haven't noticed has somehow managed to be in the middle of the pack despite having a practice squad caliber WR corps, and injuries at other positions such as LT and TE. I don't like all of his play calls, but if you go to any nfl message board you'll see armchair OC's belly aching over play calls. Even LESS likely-Harbaugh taking over as OC. Also, Dean Pees isn't getting fired either. If the defense had all hands on deck this season, and they STILL sucked then yeah, sure. Our issues on defense stem mostly from injuries, then there's some FA signings that haven't panned out.. Pees has had one hand tied behind his back for two seasons. IMO is he Dick Lebeau or Rex Ryan or Domain Capers? No. Is he terrible? No. There have been many many more times this season when he's had the perfect defense called, but they STILL gave up an easy big play. That's a lack of talent issue.
