Again I have seen Perriman wide open on several occassions... Problem is he dropped most of those.I think he is probably the most consistent receiver at getting open. All our receivers struggle with drops... They need more work in that department.

I don't think you can just fix hands, you're either one of those guys who catches everything or youre not.

Suggs playing at 50% is still a better pass rusher than anyone else on our team. Thats how sad things are, and why our secondary is having problems.

Kyle Boller sucked and wasted prime years from Ogden, Lewis, Reed etc

Mark Cuban is the type of person you should just ignore and never look back.

Unless you have a strong roster to start with you can't rely on a rookie class to bail out the season. In terms of talent we were a .500 team going in to the season and we're .500 right now.

Wouldn't the same be said for Lewis? After all, his sample size is only three games?

Would seem the sample size isn't big enough to make any changes on the Oline right now, which I suspect is precisely how the coaching staff is thinking.

I will also point out that Jensen started 6 games at LG last season, so his sample size is actually bigger than Lewis and has had more time to "gel" so to speak than Lewis has.

I guess the team needs to figure out where it averages out, if Jensen can't hit those high notes then we might as well give Alex the nod because he's year 1 into his rookie contract. 

I think the sample size is too small, just like the limited opportunities that made him look like a gem. The oline combinations needs time to gel together and maybe Jensen just needs more time to settle.

Its sad to see someone as classy as Forsett cut but thats the business side of things. He can still produce behind a strong oline and I wish him the best.

I can't never forget that draft when I was about to celebrate that we will get Dez Bryant then Dallas traded up and took him....What a miserable day for me...

Jerry Jones and Dez watched us win a SB.

Like they say, the best ability is availability....

I'll show myself out.

Well I'm not about to pile on Chris Moore I mean the kid is a 4th round rookie. But why is it we keep fielding a "hope for the best" offense year after year after year? 

We seem to keep doing the same thing over and over, sending out guys like Hurst and expecting something different. Some guys just don't have talent to play at this level and for some reason we let them play instead of trying to upgrade. 

I think JJ Watts time at the top is over, time to crown Aaron Donald.

Well, we all know what team Randy Gregory will play for next.

Probably can add Correa to that too. Him being there on the Jags' final drive has to be a good sign, right? If Correa, ZDS, or Judon can develop into a consistent rusher, this defense will be scary good. 

I'm still waiting for one of them to really break out.

    Could the reasoning be Jensen is a free agent this spring? And ravens are not interested in driving up his value in the event he plays very well. I do not think his protection of Joe is bad at all. Could improve and it probably will. If Jensen plays well for 8 games he will be cheaper than if he plays very well for 16-19 games including playoffs. Lewis is considered the future at some position along the OL. And coaching prefers him getting experience.

 

If Jensen plays like he did late last year his pay could end up quite lucrative. Then if Wagner can pull it together and reclaim his 2014 form he would be expensive himself. Jensen and Wagner could play very well and even fix the run game. But ravens are then have the challenge of resigning 2 players on Joe's line with Lewis relatively unproven. If the case is he is beaten out for a job and rides the bench this season.

I would be surprised if we ever sat superior players to drive down their FA value. Maybe we just overrate Jensen and the coaches have a better idea of what he can and can't do, Gino Gradkowski looked like a world beater in limited snaps too.

Hes a great player and our offense has suffered without him, but he was overpaid. Hes worth Brandon Brooks money. I dont know why hes burning bridges when hes not going to see the end of his new contract.

I'm a fan of doing so. I'm a practitioner of kickboxing and Tae Kwon do myself. Trying to find a good BJJ gym. 

Any progress?

And yes I'm digging this thread up, lots of MMA coming up and boxing is ascending again.

Its hard to see him becoming a 3 down workhorse with his injury history.

How about we bring back Zorn instead?

Uhhhhh he's been extremely solid these last three weeks 

Id say CJ is extremely solid and Zach had a rough showing against the Browns. Good and bad, maybe a few more games like the last one and i'll forget that Crowell TD.

They did ok against the Titans but that vaunted defense has struggled so far, hopefully we can continue that trend. Sean Smith is ripe for a torching.

I think the offense will pick up a bit now that Flacco is getting some of his rhythm back, but we still need to get the ground game going.
