  1. Flacco does not have terrible protection. Flacco just stands back there flat footed looking around trying to find someone open and he stands there so long it makes the line look bad. The o line can't hold the defense off forever. But some people do expect them to......
  2. May have been a few pressures from the left side but the sack was from the right side of the line. penalties were from most lineman. If you listen to PFF you have a problem. They only write what people want to hear and that is pure hate and discontent. You had a pro bowler de on the left and the great off coordinator left them on the island by themselves. He just set them up. lets see how Stanley looks against one of those monsters. Or maybe he will be conveniently hurt again like last game....
  3. So you think Stanley is the saving grace? Not been watching the games have you?
  4. I dont know who stayed in the backfield more in the game.Mallet or Jenson. Baltimore Sun said he struggled and that he did. Say what you want to about Mallet good or bad but that is the first real quarterback I have seen under the center for the Ravens in several years. On top of that he showed some enthusiasm for the game and that hasn't been seen in some time.
  5. Matter of fact they both have not even smoldered. Is there a reason why Jensen has been with the Ravens for 3 years and prior to all the injuries to the Ravens o line he only played 1 snap in the years prior to this year? Makes you wonder why? He hasnt shown much at all this year in his 3 starts and he was the first man in a bridge to be broken that took out Flacco. If he didnt have help on both sides of him in the last 3 games it would have been disaster. Urchel has done a little better but not much. K.O.did a great job at left tackle and he was "playing for the money" last game since he will be a FA and up for contract talks with big money involved. I say his durability is to be questioned since he has missed so many games due to to injury. Yanda is a history maker and you cant add anything to that! Wagner has not played very well all year and I think his injury and surgery may have taken a toll on him and his performance but he will be great once again. And heres what I think about Hurst since he has been a punching bag to a few of those on here. Monroe threw him to the wolves. When Monroe was getting beat in games I think he would just "tap out" to keep from looking bad. Hurst had a concussion also. Maybe his was not as bad as Monroes, but Hurst was out if I remember well 4 days till back at practice with Monroe out 4 weeks....Left offensive tackle is the absolute hardest line position to play, the highest paid and even first round draft choices falter at it . It takes a few years to develop that position and I have read where most of you want to draft a LT and have time to groom him. I for one think that is a good idea but it has to be realized that Hurst never had that opportunity to mature and be groomed. It was right into the fire for him and he did have some hard times but he never was injured and was able to at least try to step up to the plate and accept the opportunity regardless of how he played and was paid a small pittance to what Mr. Monroe was paid. Maybe he learned a lot this year. It is to be seen in the future. As far as Castillo is concerned he is a great line coach. It was Kubiac's system that made the offensive line what they were last year. He was an offensive linemans dream coach as to how he ran the game and zone blocking involved. The Ravens will once again be a great team. We have fallen on hard times but the future has to be bright. Could you imagine it being as dark as this year?
  6. Ah ha!! heres another wana be stand up comic!!!
  7. "Wonder Boy" Urchel anlong with Carrot Top Jensen have absolutley had their butts handed to them in a can the last two games. You can throw in Wagner in there too! He hasnt been stellar all year. Just another post blaming a injury on someone due to a below average quarterback who thinks he is too good to move around in the pocket.
  8. Sam Koch. He's the next man up when all the other QBs are down. And he can probably do better than Clausen...using only his feet.
  9. He's heeeeer.........
  10. Finally I have found someone that has some football sense!!!!!!! Yea!
  11. Flacco has got to learn to move not just stand there flat footed and throw off his back foot to two defenders a game like he did this year. Maybe he can work on that in rehab.
  12. Havent any you all learned by now that PFF is pretty much a joke. They dont know what they are talking about and they just want to fleece individuals for money that are dumb enough to think they do.
  13. His stupid pick,six really sucked. Where's Bryn Renner?
  14. Schaub should be old enough to know he can't just stand back there forever like he does. It makes the oline look bad and then you see all the stupid quotes with no thought behind them.
  15. Thank goodness that's just your opinion. Really not a clue.....
  16. Nope.Serious as a heart attack....
  17. Ha! That is absolutely hilarious! You have got to be kidding right?
  18. How can someone play less than 5 plays in 2 years, sticks his arm up in the air, the ball just so happens to hit his arm and all at once he is ELITE. Heck he didn't even run the ball back..Lets put him in on defense when it is 3rd down and 2,100 degrees outside and the opposition is driving the ball and then we see how he does. Trash is talked about other players yet Urban is is considered ELITE? Come on now.........
  19. Rules for the site say:Criticize the post not the poster. This is still a useless and pointless post.
  20. Wasn't Hurst the only oline player to grade out in the green last week after coming in for Monroe in the third quarter? He as consistently been been thrown in there and has to be ready to go in a moments notice. He is getting paid the second year rookie minimum and how is that fair in regards to what Monroe makes?People consistently bash him over and over. Not one word has hardly been said of Jensen who ultimately responsible for both of the injuries last week due to Johnson blowing him up at the line. Sure this team is having its struggles and injuries is one of the main reasons. We will get though this year and I think this team will play their heart out in the coming games. This site has too much bashing of the players on it. It goes to show how miserable some people are. I remember Irsay saying the sweetest sound he's heard was the sound of those trucks leaving Baltimore in the middle of the night.... It appears some would like that to happen again!!! If you can't stand behind the team why not keep you opinions to yourself!
  21. Wow. You are really on a roll aren't you
  22. You guys need to take a look at the playback of Joe's injury before you make an opinion of Hurst and his role in the incident. Take a look at why he fell backwards into Joe's legs. Seems like a St.Louis defensive lineman was behind his feet.Dont be so quick to judge....
