Ugly Ball

Ya Smith who missed out on the top 100 players, who also has been playing lights out for 16 years

I totally agree . After watching the 2000 Ravens season on YouTube, I get a little sick to my stomach thinking about how this team has changed over time. "Bend but don't break", should have no place in a Raven's vocabulary ! After seeing how our secondary has been slayed the last couple years , I'd say it's about time to get back to "Breaking Everything" !

Please don't give the Patriots any ideas.

I'm really looking forward to what our offense can do this season, so stacked at RB, TE and Receivers. What I'm more interested in is what changes there will be on on defense! I hope we can get a little meaner and dominant. I really miss the days when our D scared other offenses !

I think a purple Camo is a great idea! But the idea of the "color rush" thing is that the uniform is as unicolor as possible - almost as if the players were doused with a bucket of paint :). A "camo" pattern would go against that. If they're going to wear one color, they should at least make it interesting. I've said this before, they could find an iridescent material that changes colors from black to purple, depending on the angle it's viewed from. This would also closely resemble the actual coloring of a Ravens feathers in the sunlight. I think it would be the baddest looking uniform in the league ! BAR NONE...

Only one thing on part with annoying Steeler's fans, that's annoying Patriot's fans ! Good thing he was only 8 years old !

There you go Cleveland, have a bone! Don't expect anything like this out of your football team. Odds of the Browns winning Superbowl 51 is 200 to 1..!

I would like to see Joe make quicker transitions, from one to another receiver. Not staring down receivers and having more pocket awareness. This might go a long way twards keeping his knees safer in the future. I would also like to see Trestman dial up more quick strike pass plays, like Brady is able to throw, to keep from getting hit so often. Once we are able to complete more quick short receptions, this will open up some deep shots. Good to have some deep threats again.

If we have another 5 win season with 6 interceptions, we will definitely see some e major changes ! Pees will be looking for work...

Since we have plenty of tightends competing, Waller can untransition from experimental tightend, back to reciever!

Take whatever time is needed Sr. Let some of these young guys get the reps needed to make a difference, this season. Meanwhile you will be fresh for the playoffs stretch.

I'm hoping this is a minor injury and Perriman is able to come back and play soon. Not holding my breath, just hoping!

Is anyone else thinking, after last years dismal season, these guys should be getting together and watching something a little more like Conan the Barbarian, or at least something a little more testosterone laden?

I was in a bar in Pittsburgh with my Ravens gear on during that game, which was a very important game for them at the time it was played for their playoff hopes. Their fans were in total shock that we beat them with a backup quarterback that just arrived and so many of our starters injured and their team coming in after just spanking the Colts, Bengals, and Broncos. It was a pretty awesome day for me!!!!! I won't sit in any room with Stillers fans during a Pit Ravens game..! Especially after watching them knock us out of the playoffs, at my brother-in-law's house, years ago. I was the only Ravens fan in the house. Everyone was going crazy ! Bunch of loud mouthed, postseason, converted Skins fans...! Not real Pitt fans, More Raven Haters.

Timmy, I believe Warren is expecting a call. His pro bowl caliber wisdom may be just what you need. On the field anyway. I wouldn't listen to anything else he has to say!

I am so stoked to see how our tightend squad turns out this year ! We could be very dangerous on offense between our tightends, running backs and receivers.!

In 2012 Joe Flacco didn't get the Offensive player of the year award, although he did end up with a Superbowl MVP award.! This is really the only award worth having at the end of a season.

Everybody in society today is so "busy" they can't find the time to call. Everybody of small character uses the "I was busy excuse." Timmy J. needs to call Sapp - we all need a phone call especially when your a little down and out. Now that's funny ! Uncle Warren just needs 1 little phone call ! Come'on Timmy......

No way do we lose to the Skins this year at home ! It's time to put Pees on notice... Joe will score plenty of points this season. The question is, how many "Bent and Broken" points, Dean Pees Defense let's get scored on us.

The "turn out the lights" comment was pretty funny lol On another note, I don't see Campanaro making the team. Too bad, so much potential and a MD guy to boot. What's going to suck is watching Camp turn into the next Wes Welker after we cut him and the Patsies pick him up !

Last year about this time I put big money on the Ravens to win Superbowl 50. This year I am going to just watch how things unfold. It would really be great to have very few injuries and get back to some dominant, "Play Like A Raven" football ! We have the right pieces to be potentially very good on Offense and Defense! I would love to see Perriman have an awesome season and give Baltimore a little of the deep ball magic we've been missing.

If Timmy knew more about Warren Sapp, he wouldn't want to emulate anything more than his game. Warren's a serious loudmouth with little class. Didn't he lose his job broadcasting shortly after getting busted for not paying his hooker at a hotel during last year's Superbowl?

Say you are driving the ball down the field, about to score a touchdown and an official calls a phantom penalty on one of your receivers for tripping a defensive back. Or say he doesn't recognize a lineman reporting in as an eligible receiver and calls him ineligible, after he makes a catch for the first down, on a drive that has scoring potential momentum. Either penalty halts the drive, killing any chance of scoring a touchdown. Again, explain to me how all we have to do is outscore the Referees ! The only reason Harbaugh is complaining to the Refs, is they are usually screwing us out of game winning chances to score !

This is probably the best idea. When we at home are seeing what happens, in super slow motion and can see exactly what the call should be why can't they have another official doing the same thing ? While on the subject of other officials, I think with the ridiculous amount rule changes, it's time for the NFL to come up off some of their billions a year profits and hire some full time Referees! It's as stupid that they treat this aspect of the game like it's not a very big matter as it is that they have all this great technology, that's basically being wasted. You would think they like the fact that officials are able to change the outcomes of games and basically no one can even complain about it. If the game doesn't start getting a little more balanced in the eyes of the fans, they will find something else to watch!

Not only that, Belicheat grabs the official by the arm to get an explanation from him, which garnered no fine or even a warning from NFL.
