Warning point for telling the truth buttttt the raven can say I'm a no life, and make personal attacks and nothing??????

Nice play Wallace, at least free agents can do something since our homegrowns cant.

lol exactly. Go look at how true my post is now bro. I told nothing but the truth. Homers keep it coming.

NOW THAT MY FRIENDS, IS WHAT I MEAN BY DRAFTING PLAYMAKERS!?!? Keep on bashing me.

Why can't we capitalize on turnovers?

Yeah it was a great play. But before you hop on I said the jury is still out on the 16 draft. And tavon has been getting killed today besides that play. Kid just has ice in his veins.

Finally a play!!!! It's a miracle m. Thank the Lord

Somebody needs to make a play!!!! We are all waiting. Where is everybody who said we had so many playmakers? I'll just sip my tea on this one.

He's the only player consistently producing on the offense.

It's because we draft so dam well. We have so many playmakers. Wouldn't you agree?

Yep we lack playmakers. Go look at the thread I got bashed on yesterday and see if you agree now. I think we win but we are getting exposed

Guys? Where are all the playmakers I got bashed for not mentioning? What's going on?

And I got bashed for discussing our lack of playmakers. I'm still waiting for a draft pick to make a play lmao

We lack playmakers, but I got bashed for that already. I think we win this game buttttt my point is being proven.

Hopefully somebody proves me wrong and one many "playmakers" can make a play. Offense is now sputtering. Giants are bringing some serious heat.

Wow, it's insane how diff the offense looks ??

Almost 24 hours until gametime and of course, like everybody else, my mind has been spinning. I'll probably get crushed for this but oh well lol. One thing I've noticed in the past few years is we either... 1. Are drafting role players to fit the "Ravens way." or 2. Oz and decosta are just plain missing. Very badly. We have one person left from our 2010-11 drafts(Pitta and jimmy). None from '12(my lord if you have time look at that draft). we all know how busty the 13 draft was (elam and art brown). '14 was a very oooookkkkk(cj and Timmy J). '15 gave us close to nothing . '16 jury is still out. I trust in Ozzie so it's tough to believe that it's number 2 but it's starting to seem that way. Right now our MAIN issue is our lack of HOMEGROWN playmakers. If you look at the past 5 or 6 drafts compared to other teams it is very dissapointing. Outside of drafting CJ (great pick) most of our other picks are role players who fizzle out eventually. Yes of course BWill is a good player and excellent run stopper but is he a playmaker? I'm not too sure. Jernigan is on his way but needs to keep being consistent. Jimmy, while I think he's good, isn't a playmaker. To me, this is the reason we are in so many close games and lack decisive wins. We don't have many playmakers at game breaking positions. RB, pass rusher, WR(least important) CB. We rely on old vets to fill playmaking positions and it's showing. Teams like the steelers, pats, Bengals, Seattle, minn, etc have so many homegrown playmakers and once they grow up together they dominate. Sidebar -In the past 3 or so years, what percentage of our BEST players have been drafted by us? This year our best players have been SSS, Weddle, cj, Jernigan, Wallace, T west, Orr, pitta, and based on respect if you want to add sizz I'll give you that. Talent wise, I know flacco is one but has he played like one of our best players yet this year? Not too sure.. I could be missing somebody but that's not a good ratio. Compare this to the squeelers best players so far this year(I know I know) Big Ben, leveon, Brown, shazier, cam heyward, D Williams etc. most are homegrown and playmakers. Sucks to think about but it's reality and we need a change before we fall too far behind in the talent department. The OC change isn't going to fix this everything, just saying. Thoughts?

I'm not negative at all about the team. I'm just honest and keep it real, unlike yourself and many other ppl here. Y'all can bash me all you want but it's the truth. I'm just as much of a fan as you and pray to god we win today. But I'm mature enough to understand we have issues in our team and organization and speak about it respectfully. This board would be cool if everybody could respectfully disagree with others opinions. But of course when you tell the truth about the Ravens everybody gets defensive because they know it's true. Lol. So give me warning points or kick me off for telling the truth if you want. Idc.

Hahaha wow, the only few playmakers we actually have.

Nope, every other year it would be nice to get one though. Let me guess, another homer?

You just called somebody who has never played in a regular season a playmaker. I reaLly don't understand this forum.. Reynolds will be out of the league in a few years, book it. One of our worst picks ever. Gilmore a playmaker, seriously? He's an average tight end, if that. Pitta is a playmaker but I said that in my original post. I swear man some of the players y'all are calling playmakers you wouldn't even know their name if they were on other teams.

THANK YOU BRO! Finally another objective Ravens fan who isn't drunk off that purple coolaid. Everybody is like oh Dixon will be a star and so will perriman and Moore. They're all playmakers. As of right now they haven't proved anything. Everybody is just overly optimistic just because they're Ravens. And when people like us tell the truth everybody pounces like it's a lie lol.

Insane, this is actually the second time Marty has replaced trestman as OC. He was fired by the niners in 1996 and they replaced him with Marty in 1997.

Perriman by far has more physical tools but Moore is more polished and has better route running ability. I wonder how Jeremy butler would have done for us.

You're right. Flacco at this point is an elite game manager who can thrive with playmakers around him and good protection. We have neither.
