  1. And it's annoying because so many guys were available in FA during the offseason.

    Heck, even Jacoby would be an improvement.

     

    Because the FO thought that Rice was going to be the key skill player in this offense even though he had already gotten so many touches prior to the NFL.

     

    We haven't build that core group of players around Flacco, aside from injecting some veteran talent (which is the only thing they do well).

  2. Sorry, but outside of Jimmy, the Ravens just do not have the personnel to play bump in run. Webb would get burned all day long.

     

    The only memories I have of Webb post-2012 are him getting embarrassed by Davone Bess (2013) and the Week 9 Steelers game (2014).

  3. I think a recurring issue with the offense is that the Ravens don't have that nucleus of young, talented players that surround the QB. I'm not saying that every player position on the offense absolutely needs these kinds of players, but the wide receiving corps should have one or two play-makers to develop alongside the QB. Youth alone doesn't cut it. 

     

    I believe the FO has put this off for far too long, and while I'm happy they at least made an attempt to (hopefully) right the issue with Breshad Perriman, this should have been done a while ago. 

     

    On the other hand, I think the defense already has (or is close to having) such a nucleus, mainly in CJ Mosley, Jimmy Smith, Brandon Williams. I'm not entirely sold on Jernigan yet.

  4. I'm just bracing myself for the inevitable "defense can't get the Bengals off the field so their TOP for the game is 30+ minutes and the offense gets maybe 2 or 3 possessions in the second half" nonsense.

     

    I really see the Bengals driving down the field the whole game. I don't care if they're getting FGs or TDs; they'll own the clock which prevents our offense from seeing the field often. From there, it's playing catch up for the rest of the game and having to score TDs on every single drive is unrealistic.
