  1. LOL, I had someone suggest today that Perriman (when he can show up) should come to camp wrapped in bubble wrap, or in one of those hamster balls! Hopefully he's able to put all these jokes about him to rest this year and come out balling! GO RAVENS! 25
  2. Really excited to see this guy play. If there is any doubt he is not an ultra beast, then go watch some Notre Dame film. Some said he is just a left tackle, no.... he is THE left tackle! GO RAVENS! 25
  3. If I owned that potbelly shop, that fax machine would be displayed with pictures of Tucker signing his agreement in a corner of the restaurant for customers to see.....well, maybe just pictures, fax machines aren't cheap you know! LOL GO RAVENS! 25
  4. This is awesome! He IS the best kicker in the NFL. Well deserved! GO RAVENS! 25
  5. When Flacco was in the draft with Matt Ryan, all you heard was that Flacco, from a backwater school, was a good QB with a strong arm. But Matt Ryan, was a future superstar. As the years passed, these "experts" kept chipping away at Flacco's achievements, while touting Ryan as a "breaking out QB superstar" any day now. Let's be real, if Ryan had the same record as Flacco, he would be listed as a top 3 QB on anybody's list. Now, throw in the sports media's weird bias against the Ravens in general (never understood this, why?), and Flacco gets somehow labeled as overrated. Bottomline, I don't care what the media or anyone else says. I am just glad he's our Quarterback! GO RAVENS! 25
  6. 53 man roster??! Man, I'm struggling guessing at the 90 man roster at this point lol! How many WR and TE will the Ravens keep? Barring any injuries, the talent is definitely on board this year! It's going to be awesome!!! GO RAVENS! 25
  7. I wouldn't take away from a guy's opinion because he wasn't a superstar. I would however listen harder to Deion Sanders opinion about being a NFL star then Trent Dilfer's. No disrespect to Dilfer, but Sanders has lived the HOF track.
  8. You're right, I went into a full rant about the Pats and Steelers, I was taking a jab at the national media with that comment and suggesting favoritism of some teams will "adjust" opinions about Flacco as a QB. I guess I should have narrowed the focus there a bit, my bad
  9. Last year I cringed in the first half of the season when the opposing QB dropped back, midway through the season I covered my eyes, by the three quarter mark I just sat there numbly and watched. I know they got better at the end last year, but man.....it was a mess. So, this year I am hoping that I get excited for the right reasons when those QBs drop back against our D! GO RAVENS! 25
  10. I think defenses today have evolved from the "old days" where you could label a defense a 4-3 or 3-4. Because offenses have become so dynamic in play calling, defenses have become much more deceptive in looks as a counter. Let's hammer these folks this year! Time to get on top of the division! GO RAVENS! 25
  11. I see what Clifton Brown is saying with the triple effect, but Monroe was out so much I don't see him not being here as much of a factor. I say that losing OC was the biggest "hit" the Ravens need to get past. I think focus should be on who will be next to Stanley, that in my opinion is going to be crucial. Also, I think it would be fair now to say Yanda is HOF caliber. I wonder when calling him future HOF is appropriate? GO RAVENS! 25
  12. This is nothing new with the media, this happens almost every year. As a group the national sports media is heavy pro Patriots, Steelers and will give almost everybody the nod over the Ravens. In fact, I am shocked when someone in the media (that's not local) praises the Ravens. I mean let's be real, who cares what the say? Their approval is not required for the Ravens to play :) GO RAVENS! 25
  13. Well, this sucks. I was hoping to see what he is capable of this year (and still may depending on the injury). There is no bright side to this, but it does open up opportunities for others. If a roster spot is opened by Perriman going on IR, it will give those in a crowded WR corps the ability to receive snaps they may not have had otherwise. In other positions, the opening of a roster spot could mean making the team or not. The idea of having 4 TE now seems more practical than before since Waller is kind of a hybrid TE/WR. NO MORE INJURIES! lol, I know that's near impossible, but hey it can't hurt being hopeful :) GO RAVENS! 25
  14. I think just having a picture of Welker wearing Ravens stuff is worth the trial.....LOL. GO RAVENS! 25
  15. Trent Richardson, remember this quote: There is nothing impossible to him who will try.” – Alexander the Great You dig in and give it everything you got, that's good enough for Ravens fans. Nobody can ask for more from any player, go get them Raven! GO RAVENS! 25
  16. I think that the Ravens and Steelers are still two teams that invoke "smash mouth football" whenever they meet, but I think as much fun as it is seeing Big Ben on his back (can't get enough of that!), I think that the Ravens need to focus on putting Dalton on his back more often. I want to see all three teams in the AFC North counting us a their #1 Rival. IMHO. GO RAVENS! 25
  17. Warren Sapps explanation reminded me of that conversation in Scary Movie 4 with Kevin Hart and Anthony Anderson (unless you a Zombie!) lol. What the heck did he just say? Whatever Sapp, the egg on your face is still there. GO RAVENS! 25
  18. I would like to point out that "Bucky" Brooks has never ever ever EVER!... given the nod to the Ravens over the Steelers in anything.....ever! If he was to list teams alphabetically he would still put the Steeler first. So, take anything he writes with that in mind. GO RAVENS! 25
  19. Harbs is #2, it's hard not to give Belichick the #1 nod with 4 SB rings (as much as I would like not to). I could accept a tie with Tomlin at #2, but Zimmerman and Arains over Harbs? Based on what? Get real USA Today! Just more USA Today disrespect they always give the Ravens.USA Today is best when in the trash, or catching stuff at the bottom of a Ravens cage, in my opinion. GO RAVENS! 25
  20. I know it is early and a lot can change before the start of the season. There are a lot of competitive questions at many (if not all) positions, but the HUGE question mark to me going into this year is; who is going to hold down the spot next to C.J. Mosley? Are Orr and Brown ready for this? I hope so! GO RAVENS! 25
  21. GASP! Football players wearing full pads for 5 minutes! .....seriously? I hate the CBA's weird rules, they are so dumb. Has anyone else noticed the sudden increase of injuries after the CBA did things to "protect" players in the offseason? What is the reasoning behind no full pads yet? They can't handle it yet? Please, I don't think so.....remember when we played football and practice was about whatever the coach wanted to work on? NFL...what have you become? LOL, GO RAVENS! 25
  22. This guy is good, got a nasty streak like KO. Well, at least going into the season, (injury bug has me hesitant to say this since I don't want to jinx things!), the O-line has a lot of strength this year. GO RAVENS! 25
  23. I think at Safety, Weddle and Webb seems like the best choice. However, I am hoping Brooks can step up his game this year, he showed some pretty good skills before his injury. Also, I ignore everything ESPN does pretty much. The only reason they post this absurd power ranking is to appease a large Steeler fan base (rating boost) and throw a slight at the Ravens. GO RAVENS! 25
  24. Congrats Tuckers! I bet when that baby kicks mom changes seats on the couch! LOL GO RAVENS! 25
  25. Reading this article reminded me that Arthur Brown is in the lineup....is he ready? I mean last year the Ravens seemed lukewarm with him playing, has he progressed to the point he is ready for a starting role? GO RAVENS! 25
