  1. I don't know about anyone else on this board, but I didn't view this as a negative for the team. It's never my wish that a player get injured. I wish him a speedy recovery, and hope his best football is ahead of him.
  2. Normally I would agree with you, but let's face it he's holding auditions. He won't admit it, but even he knows the season is over. In with that reality he is playing the "we've got nothing to lose" card. Hey, again, normally I would agree with a post like this.
  3. Somebody tell Flacco, when he returns, to stop making Kamar look bad.
  4. It's been awhile since I did an I told you so, so I guess it is time for one. I said the Ravens would be lucky if they win more then 7 games and it looks like I'll be right. Second, I've been saying that our receivers look are better then Flacco is making them look and that appears to be true also as Aiken is balling.
  5. The positive: It's good to know the kids a fighter. Overcame a physical ailment as a child. Years later he is an NFLer. It's good to know he has passion to play the game and a deep sense of responsibility-- his self admitted depression show that. If there are no further setbacks he could be a very productive player for the team. The negative: the unnecessary secrecy by the Ravens on the injury. It was a partial tear initially that was further torn in week 3. Why would you leave your fans in the dark about that. C'mon man! All Raven staff that were in on keeping the secret deserve to be castigated by the fans.
  6. In case you can't decipher my message, I'm saying the Ravens should have been more aggressive on offense on that series. When are we going to learn that turning it over to the defense is dangerous.
  7. You play. To win. The game. Herm Edwards
  8. Harbaugh can't coach them up. Joe zeros in on one receiver. It's what I've been saying on the board for years. At least finally in the second half he started to throw two other receivers.
  9. If he is injured sit'em. Give someone else a chance to develop. Why is this so difficult? The guy has been nothing but a booty call for QBs. If you want to go deep call Jimmy.
  10. Forget the headsets. Did anyone notice how confused the defense was throughout the game? At one point they were so confused that a timeout had to be called.
  11. If he had time to throw, he had time to throw it away. It was 13 seconds left on the clock, enough time to run two plays. Instead he threw his signature "heave and pray" pass. To answer your question, no, I do not like his jump ball antics successful or other wise. The successful ones, of which there are not many, just reinforce bad behavior.
  12. LOL, I love it. Flacco threw an interception that ...."wasn't his fault." Jump ball Joe strikes again.
  13. IDK there are a lot of reasons, I guess, as to why we are losing. Dead Money, Journeyman WRs, whatever the heck that means, and injuries. Blah, Blah, Blah. No one cautioned against dead money or journeyman when we were being picked as Super Bowl contenders!? Now all these things are major excuses, I'm sorry, reasons as to why we suck. Here are my reasons...1) we are just bad...period; 2) our Def front four can't put pressure on the QB; 2) our cornerbacks can't make a play on the ball (notice how our cornerbacks were face guarding or frozen by the double move? I didn't see that with the Arizona cornerbacks); 3) we can't beat the blitz...I mean the blitz has become the go to defensive call when you really need to stop the Ravens' passing attack; 4) finally, poor conditioning...these guys can't stay on the field. I'll continue to watch my team with the hope they can win A game.
  14. Speaking of dumb, the call was cover zero because the 49ers were in a run set. Will Hill was where he was supposed to be. Even if you believe he wasn't, how dumb was the coaching staff for not calling a timeout to fix the incorrect formation. If Harbaugh yelled at Will Hill this just proves my point that John Harbaugh = junior college coach.
  15. I said it before on this board and I'll say it again. BW is an absolute joy to watch.
  16. We don't need Flacco to rise up. We need him to raise up as in raise up the game of his WRs. You do that Joe by throwing to them-all of them. Think raise Joe. Not rise.
  17. I can't believe BR.com would publish an article that would denigrate some on the team and make excuses for others.
  18. Hey Harbs! How 'bout your QB and OC? Didn't they know the game situation or rather shouldn't they have. I call BS on your excuse. Somebody should have yelled at those guys to move their you know whats. The ideal person should have been your QB. If you didn't know to do it in that situation you are not a good head coach period!
  19. Can we stop making excuses for the guy earning more money annually then anyone else at the Ravens facility besides the owner? Enough already. Also, to answer the question has Joe regressed my answer is no. Here is why. Joe still throws jump balls Joe still throws off his back foot Joe still has trouble reading the blitz Joe still blames the offensive coordinator for things he doesn't do, but should Joe's number one pass is still the check down throw Joe still has excuses made for him No, Joe has not regressed.
  20. Harbaugh threw a tantrum when Melvin made two mistakes in a game and cut him afterwards.
  21. The reason these guys were let go have more to do with our QB then it does with their ability. Has Joe ever produced a thousand yard WR? Think about. Also think about this, Boldin's 1st year in San Fran, he put up a thousand yds. I know, I know, most of you will say, but Michael Crabtree was on the otherside. Not buying it.
  22. I can't argue with your last sentence. I mean truer words were never spoken. We need 14 guys on the field. I wonder if the NFL would give us a waiver.
  23. A perfect or flawed defense it does not matter. Two interceptions aganist the 31st ranked defense is ridiculous. That second one made me throw up in my mouth. Jump ball Joe. Even the TD was a jump ball. That stuff has go to stop.
  24. Here here.
  25. I can't stand Pees!, but he didn't run out on to the field and trip Wright.
