Ravenwave

Why the pessimism??? Talking about replacing everyone!!! ARE YOU NUTS???!!! First of all, the thing I love about watching Ravens football last year, this year, and every year is the fact that we have the coolest level headed group of coaches and players. They believe they can WIN every game even when we are down 21 or more points. Do you want to be like the Raiders have been for the Past 13 years or the Redskins have been on and off for the past 17 years with no continuity or hope because they are constantly influx. EVERYONE needs to read the bellow article from last week by Dan Steinberg about that issue comparing the Redskins to the Ravens. I know I don’t want to see us in flux for the next 10 to 20 years without any hope. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dc-sports-bog/wp/2016/10/07/what-would-a-more-patient-redskins-organization-look-like-a-lot-like-the-ravens/ D.C. Sports Bog Opinion What would a more patient Redskins organization look like? A lot like the Ravens By Dan Steinberg October 7 “The Ravens also have one thing the Redskins have almost never demonstrated: faith in continuity and patience. That’s why the Ravens could falter so badly last season — going 5-11 during an injury-marred mess — and then brag about their commitment to stability. “ “If you go through the league, the winning teams are the ones that have the least turnover in their front office and their coaching staffs,” Baltimore owner Steve Bisciotti said during the offseason, while explaining that no major changes were in store. “You can’t just turn things over based on your record. I think that just sends you down. … One thing that I’m proud of is that we all view continuity as a strength. … Continuity doesn’t stem from laziness, it comes from confidence.”

I agree with ellicottraven, as retired military and I have a son in an academy. I understand the Secretaries thoughts on using these guys as role models Recruiting tools representing the military & all it stands for. There are many military personnel representing sports in all levels of competition. They are represented in NFL, MMA, US Olympics, and other Institutions. So this is far from unique but challenging because they have to work much harder than the average athlete while fulfilling their commitment to the military as well as training for their sports. As far as haters all I've got to say; Jealousy!!!!!

The fact he didn't run the 40 should scare everyone and haven't we learned anything from last year with Periman. We need a no worries impact player.
