Swift 1

Rmcjacket , you helped me a lot to understand the cap system and while I know it is unlikely that he would come back to us. ,I don't understand with the cap system how he could come back to us? I am thinking that his real salary is lot smaller than his cap hit, but wouldn't it cost him a salary cut at least on paper?

Why is this thread titled appreciation thread"?

you forgot the guy convicted of murder

If I am in front of you please look down NOT UP

Some people left? You and your 'independent thinkers' dominate these boards about three to one , I really think you are all Mike Preston writing under assumed names.

Can I blame the NFL . They devised a system to punish all talented teams. The make the best team draft last in every round. They manufactured a pay system here the winners could only have a payroll the same as the losers. Do you think they did all that to punish Baltimore? Do you think he NFL likes you guys calling 8 and 8 mediocre when thats what they have been striving for since day one. I am sorry for being Capt Obvious but it gets a little hard to keep reading that the Ravens din not do this and Ravens did not do that,. PS I know the NFL has not had much influence on the Pats or the Browns but they are working on it Look at Jacksonville and the Raiders/

Who was QB in 97 Redman?

First this was Joe's worst year ever .I have never found Joe as inconsistant I seen him bad and I seen him good, seldom inconsistant. The same as the running game,some of you keep saying how good it was and we shoulsd of ran more. I seen games where the rushing was so bad ,I can't figure out why we ran the ball 20 times. imo Flacco was not fully recovered from his injury otherwise why would he be wearing a brace. I know that is not an acceptable excuse but I m accepting it as a reason I am glad to see even the guys who dislike Flacco have finally come around to accept the fact he is staying here for at least the next three years, and imo he will have at least one GREAT year which will keep him here until he retires.

Maybe we re over critical of the center position/

I seen on one of my Philly relative sites that the Eagles center also made it

You do realize we are talking about an Isray here don't you? I think he texted me an offer but i am too dumb to operate a smart phone.

Isn't that against NFL rules? Won't it cost 49ers a draft pick for tampering?

Does any one else think 8 mil for a guard is a lot more than Ravens can afford?

You must of done good job. I missed it

There might be a jail term involved. LOL

Didn't That coaching staff that drafted Cousins rate him as the back up to RG3, then procede to try to kill RG3. I don't know how they got promoted to Atlanta? Think that proves it is the player not the coach?

You sayin that Patroits forum is worse than here for getting down on New England?

I was 13th person to post and the 12 posters in front of me had nothing to say but garbage about. I would expect one out of twelve "fans" to at least have some hope for a beloved team even that had a mediocre year and a QB that had his worst year ever. Acordring to people in here the Ravens need a new QB new receiving corps new center completely new secondary new pass rushers new HC new OC new DC. If this is all true how did they win those eight games? Who are you "fans" rooting for? I know who you are rooting against.

Are ANY Raven fans in here? Don't give me we are being realistic crap. Your glasses are not half empty . they are broken.

You forgot the part where three or four 300 hundred pounders are in his face so he can't step into his throws, He throws off his back foot cut him.

Shouldn't he give us back the million he stole?

When you said 'our' who did you mean?

Three. Brady Manning and Rodgers LOL

I really don't understand how that sells papers. Doesn't he know how many awards John Stedman received?

Isn't the guy who'can't block' the one that needs coaching how to block? We sure pay Pitta lots of money to not sit on the bench.
