Training Camp Reports

[H8R]

Well, the offense dominated the D this AM. Harper made some nice TD grabs. Flacco had a fumbled snap, Bulgers first pass was an INT in the redzone. I didn't see Smith get picked but a .
few left his hand bad and missed badly.

Oher manhandled Divens on 2 pancakes. Gaither did a great job on Suggs, but Suggs got to Bulger when a TE missed a block.

Thanks for the update. It's good stuff.

Sounds like Harper is doing his thing in camp again. But he looks pretty poor in special teams, which could make him miss the roster.

[H8R]

The Db's are playing horrible today. Let's hope the pass rush will be something serious this year.

Was Dutch out there practicing yet? If so, how does he look, physically?

[H8R]

Yea, he was out there with the second team on a sub. He looked in shape to me. Looked to be decent sized. He was in at nickel.

Ok, more info. from H8R!

1. Marcus Smith is NOT doing very well in the passing game. He won't make the roster for his WR skillset, special teams is the ONLY way I see him making it.

2. Stallworth may have been rusty but he fumbled 2 Punt returns from the jugs machine.

3. Zibby looked solid on returns, no drops!

4. Troy Smith went 5/19 ( when I stopped counting) with a pick 6 ( Suggs) 2 batted balls ( Ray and TP). I'm thankful we have Bulger as a number 2.

5. Bulger has no zip on the ball, or at least not compared to Joe

6. The offense AGAIN dominated the defense. The pass rush was just OK. Very few first teamers had a drop.

Thanks H8R. Glad to see #6 in a way, because what little I saw of Joe and Co on NFL.com's "Inside Training Camp" didn't impress me. A dumpoff to Rice, a couple hurried incompletions, a couple completions also.

[H8R]

Lol, yea I'm glad they didn't show off our skills. Ninja offense.

[PuRock]

Apparently the John Madden Bus is in Westminster w/ ofcourse John Madden.

[H8R]

Boom.pow.ham. I'll prob. Be at The Bank on Saturday, I should have some mo' updates.

[FlaccoFlicker]

Willis Mcgahee missed practice due to swelling in the knee

[FlaccoFlicker]

Wow a family flew 2000 miles to see Q!

Has anyone seen or heard anything about David Reed. I heard so much about him catching everything when the pads were off, but i havnt heard anything since. Anyone have an update?

[PuRock]

105.7 is reporting that Ngata has left the field during practice this morning. Hopefully its nothing serious.

Don't worry to much. Harbaugh has stated that it was only a "minor back spasm".

Phew, thanks Pu. I gotta stop following the minute-to-minute updates...but I just can't .

[Natural Born Hitters]

Back Spasms eh? I hope he is not pulling a Gaither on us.

[PuRock]

Apparently Ngata has injured his wrist during a drill today. We'll have to wait and hear how bad it is.

Ugh, waiting for an update on this. Hope it's nothing serious.

[Runnin Raven]

Also saw a comment that LeRon was in street clothes and grimacing while walking. Maybe a just a tweak?

[PuRock]

As much as I am not a big fan of Cousins, I hate to see him go down to injury. We are running really thin at OL. I hope it is a minor tweak.

Cousins, Hale, Gaither, Birk, Moll have all been dealing with injuries.

Our offense line will soon be sporting Mattison as a starter against the NYJ. Then we are in deep S.

[H8R]

I'm starting to think this is going to be a trend for us this year. Even the defense has had a tough go.

[stormie]

Harbs says Cousins had a headache, that's all he is aware of.


[quote]RavensInsider Cousins had headaches also might have been simply tired


DanKolko Tony Moll got the reps w/ 1's w/ Cousins out. Moll had concussion earlier in camp; said he's sure #Ravens will check Cousins for concussion

jamisonhensley Harbaugh said Cousins was carted off for headaches. One team official said it was exhaustion. He missed most of the offseason. [/quote]
