First of all, I'm not angrily mashing anything, but according to the t.o.s., you are by capitalizing your speech...just saying...

ot: Being 'Homer' doesn't win Superbowl Rings. This game is about proving your worth, and Clayton hasn't proven much of anything, except that he is a major blemish on Ozzie Newsome's wonderful draft history. Ozzie brought in Stallworth for one reason: to make this football team better and win another Superbowl title. Ozzie obviously has all the confidence that this guy can be our gritty 3rd receiver in the slot or on the outside going deep...a perfect compliment to Mason and Boldin. I'll admit , I probably wouldn't mind if they did rotate, but only if Clayton could hold his own and not cost us the game like he did in Foxboro (and yes, I know he helped lead us to victory in Kansas City)...but Stallworth is bigger, tougher, more athletic, and currently has a huge heart that (in my opinion) has a lot more to prove than Clayton. Clayton has had 5 years to prove his worth to Baltimore, and as you said, his has proven himself as good depth, but that's honestly it. Stallworth gets 1 year to prove himself. He said himself that he wanted more than anything to sign with the Ravens, and we graciously gave him another shot at a priveleged lifestyle. I think he takes his one chance and runs with it (seriously...no pun intended).

Good analogy: Boldin, Mason, and Stallworth are the cars driving our SB hopes. Clayton is the insurance company. =D

Assuming you mean the first Pats game, Mason cost us that game as much as Clayton did. You might say even more so seeing as he was our #1 go-to guy and it was Clayton who put us in position to convert in the first place.

Clayton didn't cost the Ravens that game. Even if he had hung onto that ball, there's no guarantee the Ravens would have scored and won the game.

I want to see what Stallworth does too but I'm sure the team isn't just going to hand him a starting spot because Clayton has never lived up to his 1st round selection.

Clayton punched more balls out of the air than he caught last season. Give the spot to Stallworth.

I only remember 2 drops by Clayton all year.

the great thing about this is that Mark Clayton will finally be challenged for his spot.
When Clayton got here he was our number two wideout. Every year in camp he has had to battle Demetrius Williams for the number two spot. Thats not exactly great competition.

Stallworth will give Clayton competition and i think we will get the best out of both these guys to be honest. I am secretly hoping Stallworth can return to his form of being a deep threat. Thats what we need to complete this offense.

I see Stallworth getting more catches this year aswell to answer the thread
