You put Joe Flacco in the game playing with the exact same people, I guarantee you he does worse than Troy Smith. You KNOW Flacco is the starter, and you're still worried about Troy. It's hilarious.

Let me take you back to last year. You say Troy makes bad throws? Look at the first play of this video:

If Flacco doesn't throw that ball, and instead scores a TD... the Ravens end up winning the division and probably avoid the Colts in the playoffs for at least 1 more week. But hey, when Flacco does it... it's someone else's fault. When Troy does it... he's the worst QB in the world!

Your football knowledge is so low, the only way you can truly believe what you say is if you are in love with Troy Smith. Flacco could have made his reads sooo much faster and actually moved the ball if he had played tonight even with the same guys that played tonight! Flacco is rated #8 QB on Yahoo fantasy, is that because he is no good? Guess where Troy Smith would be ranked if he was the starter....he wouldn't! Because Smith isnt the starter and will never be..lol

I say no but we'll just have to wait and see. With so many bubble players not really shining tonight(some looked pretty bad), Troy could still make the team.

I still think so. But he didn't help his cause at all tonight.

Both are valid answers. I'm not sure where I stand.

Matt Leinart anyone?

LOL! He wouldn't survive a week in the Ravens' locker-room.

It sounds so sad the way Parmele was talking. I thought he was going to cry.

I feel so bad for these bubble players. This is their dream and their careers. So much riding.

I know what you mean. Parmele's preseason stats are horrifically bad but I don't blame him one bit. The only thing our 2nd and 3rd string o-line does worse than pass block is run block. I still think he makes the team though since we need an extra running back on the roster and that spot won't go to Steele. Although I could say the same thing about him, never had a chance with our pathetic o-line.

IF the team is going to lay an egg--do it in PS. I feel bad for the bubble players too.

Had a Ravens "final pre-season game party", sucks they lost. Just got home. Highlight of the night, watching Ellerbe get chewed out for his "pre-TD celebration". Classic.

If the preseason has shown us anything, it doesn't matter who the Ravens pick for the 53-man roster -- we've got a lot of talented guys & we'll be more than all right.

Harbaugh is the man for chewing out Ellerbe. Shows he committed even if its the 4th preseason game.

What?? There's still a game going on! Your going to wake up tommorrow wondering what the hell happened.

Okay I ended up watching the game. I thought we would make a comeback, but I should've known better.

Exactly. The starters will want to redeem themselves over that horrendous loss.

And that's why the first stringers get paid the big bucks folks.

Yeah that was kinda funny, I'm sure Ellerbe thought it was fine cause it's preseason, but it was risky. Hopefully Harbs will not take it too seriously on him
