[News] Game Recap - Ravens at Bengals

[sharper3752]

was it just me or have i seen this game about a hundred times before? our D played just short of pefect and our offense cant score more than 10 points. joe flacco reminded me of kyle boller. we have way too much talent to have a struggling offense this year.

it's a shame... i can't believe people who want burger... this is not serious... u can't win a game with this guy.
so easy & so sad : people saw 4 interceptions and people blame Flacco...

The fact is :
- U have to blame receivers : no separation with cinci'CB
- U have to blame OL : Oher is a joke at LG & we have nothing on the right side...

Like everyone else very disappointed in Joe Flacco's performance but he is just a third year quarterback. If it was one game I would say it was a fluke, but now after this second game, he needs more work. They said that he doesn't let things bother him, I hope he takes a good look at his own play this week. They definitely need to concentrate on the passing game.

[Andrew Keating]

Ok, that was horrible. Jus want to keep in mind that bad performances do happen. Lets give it another week o two before we jump on the kill Flacco bandwagon. For al our offensive weapons, this is a new batch of receivers for the most part. Hopefully it's good to get it out of the way and the crappiness won't continue. It really sucks it had to come against the Bengals, though. We've seen Flacco sharp,so we know he can do it. next week comes against the Browns at home so we should hand it to them. Defense looks better than ever. Go Ravens!

Ray Rice was pretty good, and Zbikowski was okay, but our offence was really lacking something. I lost track of the Bengals's interceptions after about 4! This game was just dissapointing, but all teams play like this once in a while. On the other hand, defense was AMAZING as usual.

There was a time that as Ravens fan I expected this but with the talent we have now there's no way to have seen this coming.Once again the defense rocked and the offense played sluggish alright horrible.

@French Raven

Blame the recievers and ol? What game were you watching? First of all Oher is at left tackle not guard and Flacco had time to make reads. I like him, but will not defend him with that poor performance after our defense played their tails off!

[purpleflock]

Our defense almost one one another game on the road for us MY HATS OFF to our defense u did well. Harbs please threatin Flacco's job this week please show him that he needs to be more enthused about whats going on. FLACCO is lacking motivation and it shows not only when hes on the bench but when our defense is playing there hearts out but when hes on the field. Alot of lobbed balls alot of immobility i thought our oline did a hell of a job. NO QUESTION about it FLACCO threw the game litteraly and also because of that call if that call wasnt made we would have gotten another three and out. I thought cam called a poor game he called to many passes in a low scoring game 40 pass attepts was uncalled for for a struggling qb who lack success threw out the whole game.

[Johnny5]

You know who started off the last season with performances like this? Aaron Rodgers. Then he pulled his crap together put on his jock and started playing like a pro. I think Flacco can do the same. He has the talent and the talent around him to do it. On the brighter side of things the D was amazing, Cary Williams is coming back so that's more depth in the secondary, and we are one week closer to getting Reed back.

[RavensCanada]

Today was just flat out embarrassing on the offensive side of the ball. Not really understanding why Cam Cameron thinks we're a passing team all of a sudden? RUN THE DAMN BALL. It's not that complicated. The added receivers only do us good if we are still a run first team... Not to mention Flacco already has 5 picks and thats almost half of what he had last year. He has been awful so far, and I'm losing patience in him. I only hope we can somehow beat the Browns...

[Guest Mr. Nobody]

if we put bulger in from start in the browns game we get two things right; his explosion and pass accuracy will get the O line running (and with cody back) an extra speed; then flacco will get all the motivation he needs to come back and sweep the penguins

[purpleflock]

And i also feel this was a bad title for this forum our offense didnt fall flat our oline played very well ray rice showed promise the recivers caught what they could. IT WAS FLACCO who fell flat He's gonna here it all week long to. luckly hes faceing the browns but we will be faceing a very good steelers team this team is scary there defense has gotten better and roth aint even back. Flacco act like u care ur non-chalant attitude is not a game face and it is pissing me off

[RAVENSfanINmi]

Im sickened that we lost to the bungals again. i have no respect for them as a team. With that said, our defense played lights out! I just wish we could have stuck with a simpler game plan, bc obviously joe cool is ice cold right now. All qb's go through a funk. He just didnt have it today. And its cam's fault that he didnt recognize this, and gave the ball to our RB's more. I mean they held rice to 80 some yards, bc we barely ran the ball!!! Lets stick to what we can do best, groud and pound.
Lets get things going boys, two more division rivals in as many weeks. We need these wins! GO RAVENS!!!

[Guest Mr. Nobody]

mates just think tj didn't complete a pass the whole game; that's bad, really bad, not to say boldin's looks at joe every time he send the ball in the trees

[RAVENSfanINmi]

oh, btw, was cincy paying HOUSH to drop all of those catches? syke...but seriously.

[Steve T]

Lets give Bulger a shot. 23.8 rating is off the charts HORRIBLE. Oh, thats taboo speak, lets just stick with Joe & waste all the weapons we picked up over the offseason...

[balfan23]

the o line played pretty well so idk why y'all blame it on them. it just looked like they got a lot of pressure becuz flacco ran outside the tackles like a chicken with his head cut off. im not saying start bulger but im sayin give bulger a lot of snaps at practice to scare flacco to get him feeling like his job is on the line. and rice looked good when we actually gave him the ball. cam cameron sucked today

[zgf123]

flacco sucked today get rid of the ball!!!!!! dont stand there forever

[J.O.14]

This game was all flacco, wasn't the OL, wasn't the recievers, DEF was amazing, flacco just did terrible. We should have pounded the ball, we ran good when we did, if we would have ran more then the passing lanes would have opened up. If passing is not working, then don't keep doing it, especially when we can RUN!!!

[BlackRaven88]

I hope the coaching STAFF READS THIS we got to LET the offense unWine in the 1st quarter LET Joe Throw the ball and STOP WAITing til 3rd down to throw it that a DO or DIE play and on DEfense WERE so stationary Their not getting to the QB but they did good that called against us 4 quater lost our game against Suggs that calls almost made me break the D@mn TV and We need to give JOE more time to throw the ball !!!! we got offense plays just need a line that can hold up alittle better ! GO RAVENS !! were still Proud of yous and im glad they lost now then later LEARN !!! from this please Players and Coachs

[ssj3ray]

Yes, Flacco's performance was absolutely atrocious!! Needs to learn to look down the field, atleast 2 or 3 occasions where he had an open man downfield. Holding onto the ball is a HUGE problem for him as well. Better step up and prove your the QB leader of this team, or you can hand the reigns to Marc Bulger, sorry to say that, but 1 TD and 5 INT's in 2 games in pathetic!!!

[NYravens52]

while running the ball and play action was doing us well, cam decides yea lets do the opposite

[NYravens52]

@ssj3ray 1 TD and 6INTS

[SackinU]

We (I say we after a win and befor a game, I will maintain after a loss) We did not run the ball enough, Rice was itting 5-7 yds a carry and then we woud throw the ball 3 times and punt.... The run game is our best chance, as we control the clock and suck up the secondary, unlike this game, where we kept the secondary in fluid coverage and ran sporadically.
