  1. We just don't punish people any more. There isn't even that type of player on the team. Not even a punishing running back like Jamal Lewis or Marshawn Lynch. Flacco is Flaaco not a rah rah guy and not playing well enough to inspire elevated play. Really, what were they doing in OTA's and camp? One would think he could develope some kind of chemistry with the younger receivers? Isn't that what camps about? Maybe I'm wrong to expect better play from my franchise QB?
  2. I am with you there! I just want to see him play. Hopefully soon?
  3. He's at least one guy we can count on to play like a Raven! Glad he's ours.
  4. That's the problem we don't have those 3 or 4 impact players from the draft. Jimmy Smith is the only one left from the 2011draft. It continues on with 2012, 2013 drafts also. Really Matt Elam as our #1, #2 Arthur Brown. See how they have helped us here in 2015? Please!
  5. So if Joe hasn't regressed what's wrong with him? As of now he is ranked 28th in the league. Sandwiched between Jameis Winston and Ryan Tannahill. His line according to PFF has protected him better than 21 other QB's. There has to be something our WR's can do good? Don't get me wrong I like Joe, I just don't like paying him 20-22 million a year for mediocrity. Sorry that's my opinion. Ravens are going to have to look at the facts when they negotiate the contract.
  6. Bleacher Report has an article today that's saying the Defense isn't good enough to hide Joe's mistakes anymore. Basically that if Trent Dilfer is the poster boy that a bad QB can win a Super Bowl then Joe's run in 2012 was just an aberration.Joe is the only starting QB to win a Super Bowl despite never going to a Pro Bowl. Basically we are over paying Joe lots of money for his performances and the Defense isn't good enough any more to stop other teams.
  7. Ravens are ranked 28th in the league. We have a better shot at the #1 overall pick in the 2016 draft. Which would mean picking 1st in every round. This is not a one year fix and that is IF we draft well. Poor drafting for the last 5 years has finally caught up to us. Over paying for under performance is also a factor. Freeing up Dead money will help in free agency.
  8. Well that's good news unlike our #1 pick who has the slowest healing, non-contact, non-surgical knee injury in the history of the NFL.
  9. At least in 2007 we still had a Defense that was entertaining. Amazing how Joe is doing a great imitation of Boller. Our secondary didn't get torched every game either. This is worst team in the History of the Ravens and it makes me so sad.
  10. We are now ranked 28th in the league. Huge fall from starting season in top 10. We have a better chance of getting the #1 overall pick in the 2016 draft than making the playoffs. Let's hope and pray we can make that pick count. Make this upcoming draft meaningful. We can pick 1st in every round. Think of the possibilities. Leave no stone unturned due diligence. Lots of time....
  11. At the start of the season everyone was saying how our Offense line was a strength? Now their just mediocre? Go figure. Monroe is another one not playing up to his contract. I really just don't get why we are so bad at wide receiver. Marlon has been here 3 years, Kamar has been here a couple years why haven't we found anything they do well? There has to be something! That is a coaches job to put the players in the best possible light. We have Waller 6'6 240lbs run 4.4 40 and we have yet to really use him. That's just a waste of talent sitting on the bench. Not sure if Joe can really develope young receivers?
  12. It is true he has had 4 Coordinators in 4 years but this is the 2nd year in the same system. Explain to me why he has regressed with his mechanics? Throwing off his back foot, lobbing the ball and not seeing the field? We did have Torrey and Anquan, Jacoby, Pitta and Dickson for our Super Bowl run and we had good lineman too for that run- McKinney at LT, Yanda, Osemele, Birk, none of whom were mediocre lineman.
  13. To be honest Mom Gene I expected so much more from Flacco this year! He is an 8year Veteran not a rookie. Nothing wrong with expecting him to elevate the talent around him because that is what Elite Quarterbacks do so I am pretty sure we can put an end to Flacco being Elite debate.He's NOT! Flacco punishes the fans with his stupid interceptions so I think he is fair game to be criticized for poor performances.
  14. Maybe we need to look at what other teams are doing? Green Bay builds from the draft and are constantly contenders. Belichick has lead his team to 6 Super Bowls and won 4 and they are always drafting towards the end too. The Ravens tout their superb conditioning yet lead league in injuries the past 2 years. We need a major shakeup across the board. Ravens scout on their own but it's not cutting it any more because the players we have can't play. We wasted our #1 pick on receiver that hasn't contributed since OTA's. The 2nd round pick hasn't played lights out either. Our 3rd and 4th round picks this year have been playing pretty good but still look at all the misses in the last 5 drafts and there you have the 2015 Ravens. That's how we got here. Do I believe we have just the men for the job? No!
  15. How lucky is Rasheen Melvin to go from a losing team to possibly Super Bowl contender? Watch him shine under Belichick.
  16. Well there you go it explains a lot. Pretty sure Ryan Fitzpatrick (Jets) has the highest score ever. Joe just doen't have it mentally along with no receivers. Not sure we are better with him than without him considering how much we are paying him?
  17. What's wrong with Joe? Over throws, under throws, interceptions. Not worth what we're paying him for sure. Are we really sure we are better with him than without him? I get that he has the worst receivers in the league but Come On Man! He zero's in on one guy and that's it. His decision making leaves a lot to be desired and he is 8 year veteran not a rookie. I was expecting so much more from Joe. What was his Wonderlic score? It would be interesting to know?
  18. Well the Steelers got Antonio Brown in the 3rd Round. I don't want hear it's because we have drafted late. They always seem to find receivers. We have just made poor choices with our picks that did not pan out. Let's just pray they do their due diligence this year. They will have lots of time...
  19. Need to double down on scouting. Maybe join the rest of the NFL reports on players to improve our picks for 2016.
  20. Sorry I hit the down button by mistake but agree with you 100%.
  21. Nothing wrong with me. I suffered through heart breaking losses prior to winning the Super Bowl 2012 and we still had a pretty decent Defense then. Nothing wrong with pointing out an inferior product. Not abandoning ship, their still my Team but I believe in calling a spade a spade. I don't have my head in the sand or clouds. I love the Ravens win or lose. Just so happens were losing now. Culmination of things injuries, poor draft picks, cap management you name it. Do I have faith that they will turn things around? You Betcha! Just maybe not this year? We went from contenders to pretenders pretty fast. I'm coping the best I can.
  22. Other than the Pittsburgh game win you would have to go back to the first preseason to game to know what winning locker room was like and that win was on Renner. We sucked then and suck worse now. Scouting isn't cutting it. Obviously changes need to be made across the board. Don't need a feel good rah rah story to lift my spirits. Each week will get even harder to write anything positive about 2015 Ravens. Just the facts.
  23. No panic here just resigned to the fact they aren't going any where this year. No speed, a defense and offense that is the worst in the league in the 4th quarter pretty much sums it up. Hoping for the best but expect the worse. Haven't done it all year and surely not expecting miracles now. Will see what the foundation is going forward.
  24. We just don't have the personnel to do better. Ravens are the slowest team in the NFL on both sides of the ball. We don't have a shut down corner but pay the corners we do have like they are. Poor draft picks, Poor cap management and there you have it the 2015 Ravens the worst in franchise history. We have the worst Receivers in the entire league and yet we expect Flacco to be great every Sunday?
  25. Let's get real. I'm hoping for the best but expecting the worst. This Ravens team will probably wind up being the worst in the history of our franchise. It took 20 years but we finally hit bottom. Too much to overcome.
