Just now, Jonah DeVito said:Honestly I think our WR core will be better than people think. Can't forget about Chris Matthews, he's a real dark horse along with Chris Moore. Throw in a healthy Campanaro and all the TEs to throw to in the red zone, and I feel pretty good.
That was said last season. And in 2015 (pre-Perriman injur(ies)). And 2014. And 2013.
Just now, Adreme said:Are you really being critical of the offense for putting 34 points against a team that was being called one of the best defenses of the past decade? People would have been stunned if they hit 20 points but they put up 34.
To be fair it was 27 (JJ's kickoff TD added an extra 7), but Flacco was something like 66% completion, close to 300 yards, 3 TD/0 INT and helped convert a few clutch third downs. What more could anyone have wanted?

but there is no excuse taking humphrey over Allen Oj howard or R.foster. He plays more like a SS. I know this FO hates guys that actually make plays on the ball and prefer hard hitters but while everyone else here lauds this secondary, I think people are overrating it somewhat.
With Allen, my guess is that the FO doesn't expect the guy's shoulder(s) to hold up over the long run (due to him having arthritis in each). As for Foster and others like him, "thank" Ray Rice because I don't expect the FO to take a chance on any player with character issues for a long, long time.

In terms of play style, health or both?
I'm fairly pleased with picking Not-Cam Robinson

Need to get bigger and a better run blocking presence in the middle. And someone who is great at recognizing pressure packages. Dude practiced for years against Rex Ryan's D. He's seen every type of blitz there is.
Claiborne or Logan Ryan would be intriguing too. Claiborne was really good last year before the injury. If he could just stay healthy he and Jimmy could make an excellent pairing on the outside.
A healthy Jimmy and Claiborne with Tavon in the slot and our safeties might not be quite Denvers No Fly Zone (at CB at least) or the SB winning Seahawks secondary.... but it wouldn't be too far off imo.
Could definitely help make up for a somewhat underwhelming pass rush.
Ryan's on the Titans now, I believe.
I registered.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Garcon is likely headed to the 49ers...
Flacco > Ryan
Good: Joe, Kenneth, Terrance, Justin, CJ, Zach, SSS
Bad: Entire defense minus CJ and Zach
Ugly: Entire defense minus CJ and Zach
The tandem of Orr and Mosley have impressed me so far this season.
Is this... defense?
Really disappointed by Aiken seemingly going AWOL.

I hate winning because of refs
Clearly we cant win on our own yeah?
Browns were up 20-2 and couldn't continue their momentum. I won't lose any sleep over the way this game was won.
Just now, Cville-Raven said:Who was the player that helped Jimmy on that?
McCllelan.
Unbelievable...
It's not flashy, but it's a solid pick.
No Bengals until week 12. Good or bad?
LMAO at Kendrick Lewis
I'm in favor of overhauling this off-man system. I'm just not a fan. I look at Jimmy at he just does not look comfortable. His footwork is sloppy and you cannot play off-man if your footwork is off. I also can tell he does not look comfortable because he falls too far back. It seems to me that he does not want to give up the big play. I don't know what is going on but I feel a new DC would be beneficial to him.
Defense's motto should be "Make a play" not "Don't give up the big play".
The Good: I missed out on the entire game due to final projects.

What a joke. The Ravens have no standout talent at any skill group on offense or reliable depth (aside from a handful of barely passable TEs). I know, draft a new QB; surely the situation will change...
