  1. Still can't help believe that the '10 tank job by the Colts was an obvious attempt to get Luck. Caldwell can't be judged on that when he had nobody remotely close to even work with that year.
  2. We have the pieces already. Just need a new C and to go back to old school power man run schemes. We do have to give Flacco a top flight weapon though. Hell even Cleveland has one now in Gordon. We paid Flacco, no we need to actually give him some pieces to run with.
  3. We have Clarence Brooks as the Dline coach who has done a commendable job over the last 7 odd years.
  4. If possible that might be the pickup of the off season, over any player. His Olines in Tennessee before he became HC were filthy and full of only mid round guys.
  5. His offense would actually be quite interesting to watch with a real QB at the helm and a WR that can actually get down field. I felt bad for his offenses here in Baltimore. He was an offensive guy who never really got much much to work with and his boat sank with Boller. Which is equal parts on Ozzie and Billick.
  6. Actually an interesting point I didn't think of. Hue will already know how to attack Pitt and Cleveland's defenses.
  7. Surprised you guys want Chudzinski after DeAngelo Williams basically paid his way to get Chuds butt out of Carolina because he refused to the run the ball.
  8. Those ex Ravens just want a spot on a team.
  9. Combined with poor play. If he's playing lights the team isn't going to cut him because he said something as simple as "I think we were out coached by a worse team."
  10. Damn that's pretty ruthless. Few people will get to retire as Ravens in your world lol. It was Dallas but that was an inherent rumour. I read sources citing Lewis' inner circle that Lewis had no intention of leaving, just wanted to be paid what he was worth (considering he was coming off an All Pro year and would have 2 more Pro Bowl appearances in 2010 and 2011)
  11. Mason retired as a Raven after he moved on unsuccessfully to the Jets and Houston. Reed is no different. He needs to retire a Raven even if its a 1$ contract. Also Lewis didn't accept less to stay here. On the contrary we paid him far more than any team was going to.
  12. Lol. Pollard's good for knocking out at least one guy from the game.
  13. Resign him so the last jersey he ever wears is a Ravens one. I didn't see much of him with the Texans but it appeared they started using him closer to the line than the centre field he was used to playing here the last 4 years. Wonder if that did him in. Thats alot more change of direction on his hip than Im sure it could handle.
  14. Layer Cake is good, kind of in the same vein as Snatch humour wise. Those English movies really get me, love the blatant sarcasm and English irony.
  15. Holy hell, you DROVE from Edmonton?! How long did that take? Im in the prairies also but I flew down when I went twice lol.
  16. Wasn't Thompson taken to be a SS? I thought he was limited in his coverage range.
  17. What an atrocious move that would be. Has Amendola ever played a full season?
  18. I don't know how the FO does it, but I guess they trust Doss to step in. What I don't really like about this move is that it all but ensures we take a WR in the first 3 rounds. Something I was hoping to avoid with the glaring galaxy size holes at ILB and NT.
  19. The 4th string HB? You want to give him a chance at WR....
  20. I'd rather not go into 2013 with 2 brand new Ts next year. Really 3.5 isn't that much for a starting RT who has never missed a game and can play LT in a pinch. Suggs' and Ngata's cap hits are tough to look at though. Unfortunately Suggs is 30 coming off an achilles tear and biceps tear and Ngata hasn't been healthy for an entire year since 2010 I think. Can't restructure guys who likely won't make it passed the end of their current contract.
  21. You don't even know either. Flacco's 6.8 mil cap hit is PALTRY in the grand scheme of things this year. Just because the contract says 120mil over 6 doesn't mean he takes up 45mil of the cap space this year.
  22. What the hell are we trying to do? Resign Kruger as well? That statement confuses me.
  23. Flawless performance in my opinion. Ganz captured the delusion of 1945 Hitler perfectly. Too often he's conveyed as someone with mental deficiencies, which wasn't the case, he was wound in his created image of [slur deleted] Germany, diluted with paranoia and draped in delusions which caused his erratic decision making and behaviour late in the war. Downfall is a must see movie in my opinion. It has also spawned some of the best parodies on youtube of all time.
  24. Big fan of those British multiple stories within a story movies, particularly Guy Ritchie films (Lock Stock, Snatch, Rock N Rolla). Layer Cake is a good one too, pre Daniel Craig becoming a massive movie star. The ending was a total What the heck? moment for me lol.
  25. Theres a cat who is the mayor of an actual town in Alaska for the past 12 years lol. The owner just wants to go Bob Barker on everyone and raise awareness for pet control.
