I'll be honest my first and only reaction is...Who are these guys? I've never heard of them.

Very well stated!

I agree with you. Especially with the shotgun issue. At the end we were already in FG range so why even be in shotgun? Why even do anything else, but run?

This is kind of hilarious. How about you let the DBs challenge the receivers more often instead of playing a prevent defense? I just can't see how Pees or Trestman will be back next year.

So you still think we are going to make the playoffs? We are 1-6 now?

Not so fast my friend...we are what are record say we are...1 and 6.

Believe it or not there are still some people thinking we can make the playoffs? Silly if you ask me. But yes I love beating the Steelers!

With that 2000 defense we would be undefeated. That 2000 team is the foundation of our franchise.

Kduo do me a favor? Take the blueprint to build a Lamborghini, but use parts from a Ford Focus to build the car. Even though you have a great blueprint if you don't have the right parts it's not going to work. Pees has ran defenses for years so he must have some type of idea, but he doesn't have the parts to make it work right now. How many different guys have played and started in the secondary this year? Reason why average passers are having great games against us. Hopefully we can draft another corner in the 1st round next year to match up with Jimmy.

At this point the playoffs is a far stretch. I would begin to play some of the backups more...oh my bad we are already playing backups...lol...but in all seriousness I would be figuring out how to upgrade the secondary, pass rusher, receiver, and backfield positions. We need more dynamic playmakers that will make Joe look better. He isn't type that elevates other players games. Nothing against Joe, but when he made that playoff run in 2012 he was handing the ball off to a 1,000 yard rusher (Rice), throwing to a great TE (Pita), had a go to WR (Boldin), had two burners to go deep to (T. Smith and J. Jones). We had actual weapons. Our best offensive player now is Smith. Who is great, but as we say last week he is limited by his height in the endzone. Just a smaller target to hit in close quarters. When we had Boldin and T. Smith you could throuw it up and have a chance. Just my two cents.

I'll give you a half a neg on that. They have heart. No one has quit because we have been in all of our games with a chance to win. BUT you are right 400 yards against us right now isn't a stretch. Lol

Give it up brother we will not go 7-3 for the rest of the year. Or did I miss the newsflash that a 25 year olds Ray Lewis, Ed Reed Reed, Ngata, and T-Sizzle are on the roster?

Finally a man with common sense! Good post.

You all can bash Ray all you want to BUT team hasn't been the same since he retired. Sometimes you truly don't understand GREATNESS until it's gone. I agree with Ray. Just remember the more NEGS you give me the more you are agreeing with me

The chance of a 7-9 wild card in this conference is slim to none...hopefully it's more on the slim side for the Ravens

7-9 got in as a division winner. We will not win this division with a 7-9 record. LOL

Sorry brother Joe is a lights out QB in playoffs and inconsistent in the regular season. Without looking at stats the eye test proves inconsistent. BUT here are the numbers: Broncos - 117 yds passing and 0 TD, 2 INT (one was a pick 6)Raiders - 384 yds passing and 2 TD, 1 INTBengals - 362 yds passing and 2 TD, 1 INTSteelers - 189 yds passing and 1 TD, 1 INTBrowns - 210 yds passing and 1 TD, 0 INTThat's 6 TDs and 5 INTS = inconsistentLike I said I love the guy especially in playoffs, but in the regular season he is what he is right now. Trust me he isn't the only reason we are 1-4, but it comes with the territory when you are getting $20 Million a year you will get a lot of the blame. I didn't make those rules up that's reality.

At the moment we are 1-4 with 11 games left. To get a wild card spot I'm thinking best case scenario is we can get in with a 9-7 record. Do you believe that we can win 8 out 11 games? I just can't see it happening brother.

Just admit it Joe is great during playoffs, but is average during regular season. I love the guy like you do, but he is what he is.

Joe is a great playoff QB which is great, but in the regular season he is VERY inconsistent. Just look at the stats from this year from game to game.

Sorry you are wrong he's making - 6 yr(s) / $120,600,000

What if we do get the number one pick? What we do with it? The pick want be a QB. Is there a WR worthy of first pick? A defense back never gets the first overall pick. I'm guessing a pass rusher or Ozzie trades down to get multiple picks that I hope will included Joe's replacement because there's not way he gets paid all of that money on his contract unless he gets on a run again and wins a super bowl next year.

Dude I agree with you. I've been saying for years he's only good in the playoffs for some reason, in the regular season like you said "hes sucked quite honestly".

I agree with you. The playoffs are all but over. You have to win 10 games and in some years 9 games to get in playoffs in AFC. with 11 games left there is no way that this team can win 8 or 9 games out of 11. The schedule already is tough with 5 out of 7 of the first games on the road, but we have loss to Cleveland and Oakland two games that should be automatic wins. It's simple we are what we are maybe a 4-6 win team this year.

High draft pick will not happen. We have a 20M QB that has to play every game and a fan base that want except tanking games. So we will win just enough games that our draft pick will not be a sure thing. You can only think about tanking games when you are looking for a QB and Andrew Luck, Manning, Rogers, etc. is the grand prize of the draft.
