  1. ESPN is ruining this game... all this split screen and opinion stuff.... YUCK! ok... there you go... ESPNHD has it the right way.... different channel... LOLOL
  2. Pitta's not goin' anywhere..... he'll be one of the first guys they try and keep... along with the cornerback corps...
  3. It's funny you mentioned that. My hubby and I were talking about that tonight... and I said that I would take the cut right now, because jobs are hard to find, and I wouldn't want to be unemployed. You gotta be good to be in demand... Funny though, the NFL is a little different business... and these guys that ARE good are always in demand... and paid very well... enough that they might COULD afford the pay cut... LOL
  4. I think that the CBA has affected our team immensely... Guys like Jacoby, Torrey, and Joe have been affected vastly... Limited practices are just one example... Those hinder ability to work freely with other players.
  5. You are absolutely correct. I think too, that we aren't the only team doing it. Since the CBA and the new cap rules, it makes things so much harder to manage where the players are concerned. You hear more and more of it.
  6. No offense taken...I have said that numerous times too.... But, I think he is a different guy... The party bus incident was a one time deal with the not so great influence of Bryant McKinnie...
  7. He LOVES Bmore.... I don't know... this is a tough call. If anyone is willing to take the cut... it would be him.
  8. Came down to a Defensive stop on 4th down.... sound familiar????
  9. You love to argue with me... I Love Flacco. I Love Pitta. My main point is that some people do nothing but quote stats and are relying way too much on Stats. Period. You can quote stats all day long. I'll take the wins and losses all day long.... Let it go man... Time for me to move on.
  10. ... and as I had said previously... "traditionally". I know we haven't had even a good year with our running game. But traditionally, the Patriots don't usually have near the same running game. They have always relied on their QB's arm. In PREVIOUS YEARS.... they haven't had much of a running game at all. I think Pitta being out for most of the season has really hurt us...and it was a huge shock when it did happen.
  11. So you're gonna tell me that Brady has a running game.... really? I would really disagree with you on that. AND, to say that I am completely wrong is, if nothing else, disrespectful, considering I do know what I am talking about. WE did HAVE a running game... This past season has been an anomaly. When you're giving Rice 25 - 30 carries a game like we have in ALL previous year, I would say that's the case. You tell me when Brady has handed off to a RB 25 - 30 times a game...
  12. I don't think he NEEDS to be a Graham or a Gronk... Pitta proved himself last weekend; first game back and in some of the nastiest conditions. He's the only TE on the roster with a good set of hands We have more of a running game than either one of those teams. Stats are stats... and that's it. Remember... Those guys are a couple of the Pass happy QB's who have no running game and 5 WR/TE targets on the field every play... Just sayin...
  13. I saw this on PFT tonight too... SMH. Poor Guy!

  15. I watch Webby back in our secondary every week. He seems to get better every game. Our secondary is set up to stop guys like Jacoby... I think it's great they get to practice against these guys... Torrey, Marlon, and Jacoby. Jimmy has stepped it up, he's not getting smoked as much... Mattie Elam is gonna be a beast... Corey Graham, I loved him last year. He has been the biggest disappointment of them all this year.... That was until this past week... He redeemed himself.
  16. Coby keeps making these big plays and I don't think he'll go anywhere.... just sayin.
  17. Ed being Ed didn't sit well with the Ravens front office either... Just sayin. We all know that.
  18. Sometimes you just don't know when... Your head has to tell you when... The body says no, but his mind still wants it. It is kinda sad when you think about it. It would have been so sweet for him to go out with Ray... They both would have been eligible for the HOF together, and it would have been nice to see them both go into the Ring of Honor together.... Lot's of what ifs... but I don't think Ed really appreciated how much Baltimore Loved Him.

      Patience is the key.... There were 12 years between championships.... One year of chemistry and development isn't gonna ruin the team. It's only gonna help.

      But every team goes through that more or less. I'm sure the coaches and the players of our team will be the first to say that isn't an excuse.

      I agree with patience. But that mean that this year is basically a developmental year, and pretty much a loss/non-playoff season. Which I can understand.

      But we can't preach "patience" or "Belief" and at the same time, expect to make the playoffs or have a winning season. Basically, we can't have ou...

      Look what the NY Football Giants did a couple of years ago... Anything is possible. Belief and Hard Work = Accomplishment. We can believe anything we want to believe... We just need to be able to accept the possibility of disappointment. If you are told consistently "you can't", then you won't. Why even try. We all must understand that hard work, patience, and believing that we can accomplish anyting is all that we need.

  20. Gives me goosebumps Mili!
  21. I don't believe that there is anyone on this thread that believes Ed Reed should come back as a player... But I wouldn't release a player for Ed Reed at this point... an honorary coach or assistant seems to be the concensus. Baltimore still loves Ed Reed... Regardless. My point was... You just cannot compare Michael Huff to Ed Reed when it comes to Baltimore.
  22. I agree.... Exccept... Michael Huff is no Ed Reed.
  23. Couldn't have said it better Berad!
  24. Our secondary is good. It's actually one of the best parts of our Defense/Team at this point. As a coach, assistant, or coordinator maybe. Or simply just to retire a Raven.
