Looks like Webb will get a shot at being the primary KR. I like that we kept Carr on punt returns, because that is a tougher job than KR. Webb had trouble making the decision on whether or not to call fair catch, return the punt, or let it bounce when he played in the preseason.

Well, that's kind of what I was expecting. I hope Webb can take advantage of the opportunity.

This is good news. I had forgotten it was Webb's return that set up the near-game-winning drive. He looked really explosive so as long he holds onto the ball, he should keep the job all year.

Webb is returning kick offs and Carr is returning punts this Sunday!

The offense might finally take the field already close to the opponent's territory.

Here's a link to the sun reporting that webb might have a chance to play KR to ad spark. i guess we will see on sunday. Also on the ravens web page it's also mentioned. I think it would be a good change not saying webb is perfect by no means but just maybe a spark, hold on to the ball!!!! It could be also the Carr is tired, kr,pr and nickle maybe this could make him a better / fresh nickle?? Is sunday here yet????Play like a Raven!!

I think Carr is decent, He's fast but seems to have trouble holding on to the ball(obviously) and he doesnt search for gaps. The new NFL rule though doesnt allow anyone to do that wedge block anymore so It's doubtful we'll be seeing that many exciting Run backs or really good returns over 20 or 30 yds anymore. We certanily cant have Reed back there doing PR. It's times like this when I miss Jimmy even more! Esp. now that Brendon is out for the season

Carr is slow in Madden, that's all I know.

I hope we only have to make one kickoff return (but many punt returns). Seeing how one KR is unlikely to happen, Let's see both Webb and Carr perform. That way an honest critique can be made.
