Week 6 - Baltimore Ravens At New England Patriots

[Nefarious]

Since the other thread was locked, great game Ravens fans. I was expecting, and would have been content with, a tie.

[Jamal]

Love ya Cam.

[Militant X 1]

all of this dinking and dunking crap that Cam Cameron be calling pisses me off! it is overtime....we're on the road facing a good Patriots team w/Tom "terrific" for a QB. THROW THE BALL DOWN THE FIELD!!!!

[coreyadams]

We were out-coached in this 1. Our offense came to a complete stop in the 4th and overtime. "We let them off the hook"! 4-2 damn...

he got up after they play and pushed some guy over

[scrock]

Its a shame the Ravens gave that game away, they had it won but the defense led them run down the field, lots of missed tackles and some stupid penalties..especially by McClain in OT!!!

Flacco looked good today, the offense sputtered at the end, they couldnt move the ball when they needed to. I'm so bummed out....

Well, we are 4-2 and the toughest part of the schedule is over, we got some games coming up that should allow us to pad our record.

and that's what you call giving a game away. how frustrating can you get. why bother getting these fantastic wr if we are going to be so predictable and run with the ball. the ravens played way too conservative in ot, you can't give brady that many chances. and on that 4th and inches at the 50 in regulation that we kicked?! this team better start getting their machine together because all I see when I watch our team is great talent and lets try this or tlets try this there are so much talent on our team, but it just doesn't look like a machine like all the greatteams do. if we want to be the best we have to lay it on hard and leave no doubt. the ravens are an excellent team it's time for the team to start stepping on the opponents throat. ray was contained all game open it up! what I see is a team playing not to lose not putting a stamp on it.

I AGREE!!!!!!

The ravens need to FIRE Cam, his play calls ares o predictable. Run on 1st and 2nd throw on 3rd. His play calling today was horrible. Joe checks down way to much and if you notice the Patriots picked up on that and started double and triple teaming Rice. Greg Mattis also needs to step up the aggression or leave to. The D is not intimadating anymore. They hardly blitz and couldnt pressure Brady that much in the 2nd half. Brady stood back there and picked us apart all day. Do us a favor and get Merriman.

Next man up....

A lot of you guys seem to not want to give a lot of credit to us. I've seen quotes on here and from your players stating that the only reason we won was because we had two weeks to prepare. On top of that, Zybykowski (sp?) stated that we played our best game and still barely beat the Ravens. That's just not true. We played a terrible game throughout the first half. Our offense was completely inept learning to live life without Moss and you guys were killing us in the passing game. In the second half, our offense woke up and our defense started to come around. In the 4th quarter, our defense suddenly grew up and shut the Ravens down. Please give credit to where credit is due. This wasn't like last year's game where we got a couple of gift calls and one important gift drop from you guys in order to win the game. We had to earn that win, and our defense finally stepped up to do it.

Anyway, it was a good, hard fought game. I honestly thought the Ravens were going to take it. Congrats on that. Getting a win in Foxboro against a Belichick-led team that had the Bye week to prepare is hard. Stay healthy and do not let the Steelers win the division. [i]<Deleted>[/i]. We'll hope to stay healthy as well and I hope to see both teams play each other in the playoffs. Hopefully, you guys don't figure out our audibles this time around and absolutely crush us again.

By the way, good to see Heap is okay. I'm one of the many Pats fans who was not okay with that hit. Meriweather is filthy and I was glad to see Heap able to to get back out onto the field and play again.

Thanks for saying that, I actually think he should be suspended at least one game for intentional helmet to helmet.



I honestly believe fatigue set in on the Ravens. This is our 4th road game in 6 games. We should be happy to be 4-2, have two home games and a bye in the next 3 weeks.
Hopefully the Ravens can get some rest, and get injured players healthy again, not to mention next week Ed will be off the PUP.

BB looked disgusted with Meriweather, there is no place in football for that

Cam calls the plays but Flacco executes. Flacco chose to check down, not Cam. Flacco is choosing to play safe rather than challenge. Flacco often had at least one if not three receivers in one-on-one coverage.

obviously you didnt watch the game... he mixed it up good.... only one bad call all game and it was in the first quarter when we went for it on fourth down and did a no huddle QB sneak...and didnt get it,other than that he called a good game

[Jabara]

Looking back, the Ravens dropped a couple TD's because the receivers got nailed.
They allowed Branch to run wild.
The Pats got away with a lot of holding calls.
Heap is one tough dude.
And we feel asleep in the 4th quarter.

[R.Truitt]

Where is the punt return game ?, I am so sick of this [b][color="#ff0000"]< no name calling>[/color][/b]Harbaugh sticking with # 28 zibikowsi hes horrible we havent had one decent put return in 6 games now. Wheres Webb? Harbaughs playing scared, well, good teams use the players their paying to get the job done. Belichick isnt afraid to use Wes Welker and he just came off a serious season ending injury, but unlike Harbaugh, Belicheck isnt gutless. I mean 4th and inches at the 50 in the 4th and he didnt let Mclain pound it for the 1st down, that would have more than likely sealed the win for us

[H8R]

Chris Carr was returning the punts too. Let's not forget Cary Willimas stupid block in the back that negated a HUGE change in field position.

[UMDan]

there's not much of an excuse for not scoring a TD when in the red zone against a defense that is one of the worst in terms of defending red zone points..

also i think it was a huge miscalculation not going for that 4th & inches, and the 4th & short later in the game.

the NE game gives the ravens a lot to work on over the next two bye weeks (yes, buffalo is essentially a bye ) so hopefully they take steps in teh right direction and start taking some risks on offense, and not just hoping our defense can protect our lead
