    Agree 100%.

    The scandals - Spygate, Deflategate, opponents headsets not working, fire alarms at hotel, etc.

    The rule changes - Tuck Rule, Brady rule, Defenseless WR rule, Goal Post rule, reporting eligible rule, etc

    The whining after plays, the coward kick to Ed Reed, etc

    Not too mention Brady leaving his pregnant girlfriend for a supermodel.....

    you forgot the guy convicted of murder

    Great enhancements to the stadium, which was already the best gamed experience in the NFL. A nice commitment to the fans and the on-field product.

    Now, can we get some TVs in the Men's bathrooms? Those lines are kinda long, and I hate missing a big play.

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

    This is SO true. I've been downvoted to oblivion for saying that Flacco needs to step up, our drafting has not been good past couple of years etc. Good thing I didn't receive any death threats.

    Then 2 days later Biscotti says the exact same things and everybody is like "I completely agree with Mr.B, what an insightful opinions he has.". LMAO. 

    But it's refreshing to see that there are still some people left on these boards who are capable of independent thinking and who can see beyond the naive feel-good optimism that is as far away from truth as we are from finding a no 1 WR. 

    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/

    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.

    The same day Eric Weddle was selected for the probowl Zuttah was selected also because of somebody dropping out. Something's terribly wrong with the probowl for 2 of the above reasons. First it took somebody dropping out for Weddle to make it. And Zuttah making it no matter who dropped out.

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

    Ryan Grigson is out as general manager of the Colts after five years. (AP)

    Well here’s a somewhat surprising one for a mid-January afternoon: via multiple reports, the Indianapolis Colts have fired general manager Ryan Grigson.

    It’s another odd decision by owner Jim Irsay, who waited until a disappointing regular season for the Colts had been over for three weeks before making the move, and just days before league personnel executives, scouts and coaches will descend on Mobile, Ala. for the Senior Bowl.

    Irsay may have bungled things for the second straight year. After the 2015 season, amid multiple reports of turmoil between Grigson and head coach Chuck Pagano, who were both hired in 2012, not only did Irsay decide to keep the pair, he tied them to one another for even longer, awarding both with four-year extensions.

    See,,Colts are taking risks! Why couldn't the Ravens do the same? Like Firing Haubaugh and Dean Pees. 

    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.

    It is confirmed that Shanahan will be 49ers' next coach and he will participate heavily into hiring a new GM.

    http://www.csnbayarea.com/49ers/report-shanahan-announced-49ers-coach-falcons-staff

     

    We will see how will he handle the team as a HC; there's no doubt he is a good OC....

     

    PS: not easy to run the team.....

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

    You mods do such a good job, they could use you over at the Patriots forum - going to town on each other over there, no filters, no nothing

    Back on topic - the analogy that we don't get Dixon if we don't take Correa makes this pick a lot easier to swallow.

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

    We are ALL ravens fans....Doesn that mean we have to say Joe is better than he is? or better than he played??????

    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.

    its amazing that people are so unwilling to take into account all of these things that sr. just listed. anyone with half a brain has been pointing these things out all season long, and for a while there everyone was quiet because flacco was playing well, could it be maybe because he was finally getting comfortable in his new system, with his knee finally feeling healthy, playing behind an offensive line who finally had 4 out of 5 starters? but its funny, when flacco was finally able to get comfortable and he starts playing the way we have come to expect, all it takes is a DEFENSIVE meltdown and MULTIPLE DROPPED TD PASSES PERFECTLY DELIVED BY FLACCO to make everyone turn around and blame flacco again. 

    dropped passes - flaccos a bum, cut him. 

    sacked before he can finish his drop - flaccos a bum, cut him. 

    defense melts down in the 4th and blows all of the leads joe gives us - flaccos a bum, cut him. 

    flacco doesnt play well while playing behind a patchwork line with a torn ACL - hes a bum, cut him. 

    flacco didnt immediately mesh with his 5th oc in 4 years - hes a bum, cut him. 

    ignoring this massive collection of reasons as to why joe could be struggling, all to say that we should eat 20+ million on the cap over the next 2 years PURELY OUT OF SPITE because some crybaby illogical fans have no sense of patience or football knowledge.

    heres some of that aforementioned football knowledge thats lacking... its a team sport, qb's cost a lot, and when youre paying your qb and the team around him is falling apart(mind you, not due to his contract, but more due to injuries and coach-poaching) then that qb will struggle. injured qbs playing behind injured offensive lines shouldnt be leading the league in passing attempts, qbs cant throw from their backs, well placed dropped passes arent the qbs fault, and qbs cant just pick up any system and take off with it. its really simple people, common football knowledge, the most basic aspect of this sport, and you all are completely blind to it.

    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.

    i mean we were not a good running team - otherwise we'd run it more - do you really think the coaches dont want to run the ball or that they want to lose? we could have run the ball more, maybe should have, but we definitely needed to run the ball better - there's no point running into a brick wall for short to no gains repeatedly just to have the opposing team swallow it up without even having to brink a safety down into the box - we did not run the ball well which obviously makes it more difficult to run the ball consistently

    You make too much sense to post in here. A lot of these guys thinks we pass to the tight end because the QB is his friend .LOL
