That looks almost like the exact same thing Jimmy Smith did to run back a touchdown.

That play basically looks like how the Camp play should have gone if Camp was not too busy being awesome to let it happen.

Someone made a play who is under the age of 30 for the Ravens....what is this madness...?

I would not accept that penalty.

Because running for 2 is basically a wasted down and thats all running has been this season.

The last 2 times I have seen the ball thrown to Marlon Brown he dropped it...

I like how he was basically thrown into Vick.

Ok they have the lead now can they stop the Bengals when they get aggressive passing it because that has honestly only looked 50-50 so far?

That is a really bad injury but I dont think its a long term injury so I am not too worried.

Oh no its 3rd and short I felt more confident when it was 3rd and 5 and they would have been forced to pass it.

That does not look like a first down on the replay or even live.

I agree with the blindside part but dont you actually have to hit someone in the head in order for it to be well be a hit in the head?

Im really glad that INT rattled the Cinci coaching staff into not throwing it as aggressively because honestly they were doing really well when they were forced to rely on Dalton throwing it against the Ravens D but the running game has not been great for them overall.

Running is 60% blocking in most cases and if the RB cant get the first couple yards before getting touched (whether thats letting the play develop or just getting good blocking from the start) then your RB will not have a good time and you will not get anywhere. Basically you can have a bad RB have a good average if your line can get him good blocking but a good RB can not get a good average with bad blocking.

Every single time the Ravens have tried running it on 3rd and short they have not gotten it. Maybe they should get the hint.

Someone tell me how Steve Smith made that 5 yard pass into a 12 yard play with 3 players around him.

It turns out that Steve Smith guy is a pretty good WR.

Now there can be some panicking.

Smith still should have had that.

You cant run a blitz on every single play unless you want to get burned hard consistently. You have to pick and choose your spots or they offense will know exactly what is coming and be able to easily adjust to it.

See the Bengals were nice enough to leave Gillmore wide open so he could get back to the 20 anyway.

Cinci was so close that they probably would have been able to down it inside the 5 which could have been drive killing already so it probably was a good call.

I think people are panicking way to much way to early. It took a lot of unusual things for Cinci to get that TD and other then that they have not gotten much whereas the short passing game by Baltimore is actually doing okay in its short passing game but has not gotten points yet but thats likely only a matter of time.

I was not aware that short passes helped on defense on the very first drive (or helped the FG go in).

Why throw it to Aiken when you need a big play when Gillmore and Smith have been doing all the work so far.
