  1. As long as the other WRs and TEs we've got on our roster can step up and be productive on offense, I have no quarrel with Steve Smith Sr being a punt returner. Would be fun to watch Though, of course, we won't see too many punts this year If they ain't, we'll need to make sure Smith Sr is safe and fresh for offense.
  2. I love Juice, but not sure whether he won't be collateral damage of keeping too much players elsewhere, such as having 4 TEs and 6-7 WRs as well as 3 RBs if both Allen and Taliaferro are on the active roster, come beginning of season.
  3. What's wrong with Maxx? I agree it's unique enough.
  4. My guess why Roethlisberger is best graded in league when under pressure is, that he's so big, that sometimes he doesn't even notice someone attempted a tackle and keeps on moving. He looks more like a DL than a QB.
  5. Before I get to anything else - whoah, quit about the uniforms please! The black 2x a year uniform is the most beautiful thing ever seen on an NFL football field fashionwise and I adore them and am sorry to see them only 2x a year. Maybe they're not popular because when Ravens wear the black, they almost always win Get over yourselves, other guys.
  6. I'm really really hoping that Marshall Yanda signs an extension and gets to stay here. However, he is the one player, that can afford not to take a bargain, because anyone in the NFL is smart enough to figure out they need him. So if he wants the money, he will get the money. Just not here... Maybe Miami can pull out cash out of their rear end. Not sure how they get to do it to make splash "I robbed the bank and now I'm reckless" signings a la Suh or Tannerhill's new contract, but I guess that's where money is sat or some other desperate team.
  7. Those two will get along magnificently I can't wait!
  8. Yeah, that's my one worry with this rule change - we do have a competitive advantage with Tucker, but his contract expires next year and no extension in sight...
  9. I'm loving the Maxx Williams video! Super excited!
  10. Back from a match in Budapest, Hungary. There was not enough of us, so got to play FB and TE/OL as well as ILB and handled it better than I had any reason to hope. I'm all bashed up, but extremely happy :)

  11. We like Tucker too, but it's up to him to sign an extension. As some ex-Ravens have found out before, you sometimes have to choose, whether money or Ravens family is more important to you.
  12. I think Elo's best chance at a comeback is volunteering for special teams and showing that he still can tackle to make the other side cry. Special teams are the way to go with Harbs. If he can show that's he's got it, he will be seen.
  13. I think we're the ones "like a kid on Christmas"
  14. Great signing! He can play nickel while Smith and Webb handle the rest. Why not get another ring this year in purple? Here's my hoping that Elam does indeed turn it around. He's a hardworking guy who takes what he does seriously, which is a better attitude than a lot of players in the NFL. 2014 sucked for him. No denying that. Go on and prove yourself, kid! True about Harbs being big on special teams - Elo, get in there, volunteer, whatever. You won't see many defensive snaps unless you hustle real hard and make a point of showing what you can do.
  15. I'm looking forward to a wicked season! We have on the team the guys that can make Ravens go all the way!
  16. I'd like to see him step up and play like if it were the last game he'll ever. I saw the Vikings game and man, I screamed like a girl with that touchdown! I am a girl, but you get my point...
  17. Ehm, what exactly is your quarrel with James Ihedigbo? I was sad to see him price himself out and go to the Lions. He brought veteran leadership into the locker room, he elevated the game and showed his prowess on the field and he was good with the media too as he was an intelligent speaker. Oh, and while he was on the roster, Elam did not shame himself. Remember when Huff turned out to be a bust and Elam got the start by game 2 and played well all season?
  18. We have enough receivers if Campanaro gets injured. I'd say give him a try on the returner job.
  19. Funnily, it's the "easy" practices that often lead to ugly injuries. We just lost a girl in yesterday's run through of playbook. It was a push during zone coverage of passes. Except she has now a dislocated elbow and torn ligaments there, dislocated knee and torn ligaments there and a broken leg Was ugly. I know I'm late noticing this and just stating the obvious, but Reed's presser showed that this man is not only a football legend, but an intellectual, wholesome man with so much social intelligence and compassion. His speech was one of the smartest and filled with best advice I have heard in a while.
  20. Steve Smith rocks! Perriman highlights look great! I know they're highlights for a reason, but hope he looks like that on the field
  21. Hell, I missed the Ray Lewis and Ed Reed era, but the video on the homepage made me emotional. Bigtime.

      Me too. I'm listening to the conf now and gotta love the guy. He's funny and really sophisticated and smart. I am hugely impressed. Ray Lewis might be the passionate speaker, but with Ed, I understand exactly what he's saying, he's easy to follow and he has a lot to say and he's right.

      I missed it too, I wish I got into football a lot sooner, all my family besides my mom was never into sports

      Watching Ed and Ray in their primes was truly amazing. 2 of the GOAT at their positions.

  22. Browns case of sour grapes much? Yup, Baltimore has won the draft. Two rookies prospected as OROY and burn Steelers in round 2? Cinci should have gotten a QB too.
  23. It will be odd getting used to new players in freshly vacated numbers...
  24. Haven't heard a lot about Perriman before the draft, as he's out of my conference, but welcome on board, and I have high expectations! Maxx Williams though, I am beyond extatic about! Can't wait to rub in salt in Steeler wounds on the next 2 or 3 occasions this year and then for years to come Hahahaha, judging by the fact that they took up all their time up to pick their round 2 player, they were flabberghasted. I wouldn't call anyone though Todd Heap 2.0 or Pernell McPhee 2.0. I trust our rookies will be able to build a reputation all their own and unique. Fear the purple and black! I'm sure Joe was not so cool when he heard from Harbs and did a little victory dance after learning that the first two Raven picks are presents for him.
  25. I watched the conference and just as Ozzie was saying, that he wasn't getting at Pittsburgh, I saw Eric next to him with canary feathers on his lips Gotta love DeCosta! At that, I am thrilled about Maxx and about Breshad.
