Cannonball! Haha!

Where's Mod 2?

I got fired lol.
Seriously in order to keep the board moving ie not locking up, they are doing something different that needs to be done on the Admin side with the URL's to Invision, it also disables sigs and graphics. I also requested the stuff everyone looks for like jersey color, ref crew and distribution maps.

That was my first thought.

I saw that a lot of the old game threads were deleted. Now we'll have to go off memory which game thread had the most pages. As it stands now its against the Packers (114 pages).

Are we going to be "ok" if we squeak by 13-3 or do we need to stomp the Browns mercilessly?

As a team we'll be ok if we squeak by. As a fan base, hell no. We need to put up over 25+ points to feed the hunger.

Doesn't look like that is working quite yet.

I can't even see the signatures! Will the signatures turned off help the prevention of crashing? Or is it more for the individual user experience?

A win is a win, but if the Ravens offense doesn't show up I will push the button.

Mostly for the individual user experience but anything that speeds up the pages loading will be a help with performance. If posters would actually turn off their signatures, it would help performance a lot.

Guess we need to let someone know lol e-mail sent

[Natural Born Hitters]

Big things are going to happen for the Ravens on Sunday and I can't wait. What do you all think the Ravens first offensive play will be? I am going with a screen to Ray Rice.

[Rav'n Maniac]

Splash! Damn, spilled another one in the pool! Waiter, bring me another and get an extra one for my friend Nurps, he'll be here soon.

Play-action pass

[bmorefan444]

Lets just hope our offense actually moves down the field.

[hawkprey]

Everyone knows this is an easier game. Ravens have been beating down weak teams since the Flacco/Harbaugh era started. As a fan and a number-cruncher I just hope this game is a statistical free-for-all. I want that #1 D this year and some offensive fireworks might be nice.

Let's just keep the no TD streak going.

[dpatrickguy]

Damn I wont get it at school. Wish Lancaster got it like last weeks game

[MagicianCamille]

Please score more than 10 points. More than one touchdown would be nice also.

[theFRANCHISE]

I think people will panic if this game is close.

But, even though it's the Browns, you can never discredit a division rival. Again, yes, it's the Browns -- but they're still an NFL team (barely) and no game is decided on paper.

[BohBalmerOsbohs]

pool is full.... This game better be a Blowout. Have a great Time Brownsfan and mod2

JACK-KNIFE!!!

We need to roll on the Browns to satiate all the naysayers here. First play will be a deep ball to Mason, lol. 31-6 Ravens

[macbrak]

Is it football yet?

[Natural Born Hitters]

Haha. Nice mac! Keep em coming.

[Passepartout]

Ravens should have an easy time with this! As they will rebound.

[XxSizzleXx]

Question: Since the Ravens lost to the Bengals last week while they held a 0-1 record is that the first loss against a team with a losing record under Harbaugh?

Disclaimer: I am a Browns fan. I'm trying not to be a troll, although, I suppose I kind of am as I'll only make a couple posts then never come back. But I digress... I came upon this article and got to thinking what Balt fans thought about this game.

Are you guys expecting a close game or are you expecting a beatdown. I really am curious how you're viewing your team.

Anything less than a beatdown of the Browns at home would be quite alarming.

[PWNEDbyDEANO]

I personally would settle for a comfortable win. To see Flacco getting it done, 2 or more TDs, no INTs but a closer scoreline than some predict would be good for me. A beatdown would be really nice, but I wouldn't go as far to say that alarm bells will be ringing if we don't get one.

You are correct. Not too shabby for a third-year head coach.

I wouldn't even say we lost to a team with a losing record. The moment we "lost", was the exact same time the Bengals no longer had a losing record. Therefore its a wash.
