Feelings For New Players

[grape drank]

I want to hear an interview of the new additions the raven's acquired this off season speaking about what its like playing on the ravens vs their previous teams.

For example Boldin came from arizona who has a prolific offence but a decent defence. Now when the score is 10-9 with almost 2 minutes left he must feel confident for once that his Defensive counterparts will be able to hold it down.

Same for T.J except the seahawks defence was terrible, and when he played for the bengals they weren't anything great either.

Also it was great to see Cory Redding amped to be around guys who think and play just like he does, wish he had gotten that interception though

Just would like to hear how excited these guys are this week to kill time until the bengals game! great game I'm still unable to sit still, such an exciting finish!

When the Ravens win the division, and secure a playoff spot... you'll probably start hearing those kind of interviews. So just give it time. Let the Ravens build up a nice lead. Who knows, perhaps the Ravens are undefeated going into Week 15 and have to "make that decision" of whether or not to rest players or try to go undefeated.

I have my suspicions about any thread title on a football forum with the word "feelings." But otherwise, good post

Just goes to show you, it doesn't take a blazing 40 time to get open. Mind you if you were covering someone as muscular as boldin you wouldn't wanna get too close to him either.

Exactly! Just watch the NFL Network video breaking down our WR's vs their CB's. Mason schooled Cromartie and had him beat by 2 steps forcing Cromartie to interfere. Same with Housh. We have plenty of "deep threats".

I wish Redding had that int too. lol

I would like to see how Boldin feels taking passes from Flacco in practice and in game as opposed to taking passes from HOF Kurt Warner. Does he feel there is a lot of drop off, or if he feels Flacco has good upside and potential. It's gotta be tough coming from a legendary QB to a guy still trying to prove himself in the NFL.

That was killer. The ball was in his hands. I just don't understand, even a 4 y.o. can hold onto a ball that is dropped into their hands.

I guess that's why they are paid to attack not make offensive plays.

It's not like he would come out and say that there is a big drop off and Flacco is not as good or anything like that. He knows better and to only speak good about his team.
