Aside from all the usual stuff, what stands out is when Coach Arian's pointed out we don't have Lewis or Reed teaching guys and spending the extra time in the film room. We really need someone to step up and fill that role. Coaching is 1 thing, but the little things that Great players bring on and off the field are what make Winning Teams.
Ed Reed replace Dean Pees.
Joe is doing what he always does, and he has not regressed. Big difference this year is He doesn't have the defense to bail him out for a bad decision or 2 each week like he has in years past. And, his biggest weapon is his arm strength throwing the deep ball, and he has NOBODY fast enough to get behind defenses.
This is good for Joe. Hope Pitta is ready to go and can stay healthy.
That all sounds Nice, but didn't we just do this in 2013? After we cut and gutted the team? just curious
SSS whispering to Torrey, I wish you were still here to stretch the field for me...
Wright Struggles, and Jimmy continues to disappoint. The old Ravens WR's made the new Ravens Corners look real bad. Who is our field General in the secondary Like Reed used to be reading the QB and opposing offenses?? We make no adjustments and seem lost every week...
Side Note, J Tuck's missed field goal was a bad spot on the Turf, were lucky he didn't injure his ankle. If you watch the replay, his entire foot disappeared in to the turf. The NFL needs to inspect all fields better, no wonder there are so Many Torn ACL's and Achilles every year....
1. Lack of Talent 2. Lack of Leadership 3. Lack of Heart 4. Lack of Coaching 5. Lack of Wins...
Joe needs to be better and should be way better, but he's not going to carry a team week in and week out. He is an awesome NFL QB, but without a Stud RB, a Beast TE, a WR who can stretch and a slot WR to move the chains, and a Defense that can cover for a mistake or 2 each week, and a special teams squad that can give him better field Position, and an OC that can call a game, Than Joe becomes very average.
A Huge problem with the Ravens is that for the past 3 seasons we have released, traded or retired players and have not replaced them with quality players. Lewis for Mosley, Ed Reed for Elam, Q for Favor to little Bro, Jacoby for Ross, Torrey for Perriman, Pollard/Ihedigbo/Cary Williams/Ngata etc. Where are the ball hawks, the playmakers, the leaders, the attitude? This is the team Harbs wanted, now he and OZ need to rebuild and replace.
Hard to watch 2 EX Ravens beat us today. We didn't make Kaepernick look like Montana, their OC called a balanced run/pass game and Tressman didn't and They Have 2 WR's and we only have 1.
San Fran D is weak, Justin and Steve should both have big days.
They need to play with Controlled Aggression, Controlled Emotion, and Controlled Ferocity and Uncontrolled Heart. Then we win. Teams that come out fast in the first qtr and after halftime definitely have the advantage and win more games. That comes from the Pre Game and Halftime Pump Up and focus.
Good for Buck, he's been running hard this year. Hope he has a big day.
Coach Harbs should invite Jim to be on the sidelines Sunday...
Torrey and Q could both still be here with the other moves made in 2013 and 2014. On the field they may be down, but off the field there's no replacing what they meant to our offense. BTW, they have Kaepernick throwing them the ball, no wonder their numbers are down. If Flacco was tossing to Torrey and Q, they would both be up in production. With that said, I hope we shut them both down, but Jimmy and Webb need to play better or these guys are going to have a big day. If we don't start drafting some weapons for Joe, Ozzie better find a way to keep guys around who fit our system.
Blitzing all the time only works with solid Corner and Safety play, jamming the receivers at the line. If you want to blitz all day Dean, draw up some safety and corner blitzes and better disguise packages. If you keep sending Doom, Z Smith and CJ we will keep getting killed with 3 step drops and quick outs. We don't have a pass rusher who draws double teams like sizzle, so its simple math, that means every D Lineman and LB are accounted for.
"Inexcusable" is the PC term for Stupid & Undisciplined. Even with a lack of talent, and injury struggles a properly coached group does not commit "inexcusable" penalties for 5 straight weeks...
These 2 guys are the best receivers we have ever had. Hands down. They Run Amazing routes, hands are awesome, not afraid of contact across the middle, Block very well downfield...Just Great Players and Great leaders. Wish Q and SSS had a chance to play for Bmore together. SHouldn't remind us of Ex players who should still be here...
Simple, Not playing a complete game on O, D, and ST. And Not able to Close. Coaches and Players are both to blame. It's time for an overhaul from Top to Bottom and accept the Reality that we are no longer the Lewis/Reed/Ngata/Suggs led Ravens that were able to talk the talk and walk the walk. Those guys studied more film then required, worked out all year round, the little things that make you great.. And, they forced all other Role players to elevate their game to the highest level because they were held accountable if they didn't. Who on this years team raises the Bar and forces guys to perform? If players aren't doing it, you can only blame the coaches. If we had a solid Defense, and a Great run game we would be 3-1 this year. Our WR's are not losing these games. Sure its nice to have balance on O, but we need to dominate on D, and Control the Clock with the run game. Run down a teams throat and then you open up the pass games. Teams aren't worried about our Rushing attack, so they easily shut down our WR's and TE's.
I ordered my copy Today. We can all use a little inspiration. I Suggest Mr. Bisciotti order copies for the entire team, and have them read it on the Bye week. Steve Smith gets a pass.
It's good the CJ is taking a leadership role, but you can't blame him. Most ILB's have a tough time in pass coverage with the big, fast TE's...CJ was such a beast last year because our D line was so much better, Suggs, Ngata, and Canty were able to penetrate allowing CJ to roam. With an Average D line, very few Linebackers will be able to shine.
KO is our most improved player, he actually progressed from last year. The rest of the team has not.
