Week 15 - Baltimore Ravens Vs. New Orleans Saints

[Blazin Ravens]

TD return please

[theFRANCHISE]

Keep in mind, the Ravens defense faltered because of the Saints no-huddle; most offenses won't go no-huddle on consecutive possessions, largely because of the fatigue factor as well as the increased probability of making a mistake. Furthermore, the quicker you score from a no-huddle, the less time your defense has to rest, which is the inherent trade-off.

Saints will go no-huddle again, but don't expect it to be on every drive.

Everyone, relax......

[SnOoPy]

C'mon we better try something here!

[PuRock]

If he caught that, He was gone.

[SnOoPy]

Damnit! I thought Mason had that one!

[RavensReign]

our ravens have problems with a spread offense and a stud qb

[JO_75]

Let's go for a FG!

[AwakenTheDemon]

What the hell were you doing Joe? Way to waste time.

[SnOoPy]

Wow Flacco lol

[theFRANCHISE]

Nice improvisation and awareness by Flacco in the pocket, decent series to try to score before the half. If not for Porter's deflection and the gang of defenders in the endzone, there were two OK chances to score there.

We excel in a spread offense

I love how after a touchdown everyone acts like we just lost the game. This has to be one of the most bipolar fanbases in the NFL. This is Drew Brees, people, one of the best quarterbacks in the league. If people thought we were going to contain him all game long, you're delusional.

We didnt expect that, but we couldnt even scratch the guy on that drive and they started on the 10 yard line. The D is too vulnerable to the 2 minute offense.

[JO_75]

Who gets the ball to begin the 2nd Half?

The point of that post was to illustrate what some ravens fans consider the problem and how irrational their solutions can be. Kind of making fun of them.

Offense blew that great return. We need to score starting the 3rd...

[Ravenseconbeast]

watch Oher get another false start. That dummy never learns

They didnt really blow anything.. not much u can do with only 13 seconds except go deep which they almost executed with Mason.


Offense has been great today they just gotta continue it in the 2nd half of the game.

[hawkprey]

Stop acting so down on the team. So they scored with a 2-min drill. We ALWAYS give up points on a 2-minute drill, and the Saints are the best in the league at it.

[ravens__]

Wow.. Cushing and A. Smith throwing punches at each other.. Now that's something that would never happen in our organization.

[Blazin Ravens]

Lets get a great drive to start the second half.

[Jay D83]

Hmmm. Nice try. I like the agressiveness. Keep it going and we win this one. My future stripper daughter "Raven Baltimore" lives.

[Barry S]

They have to make every possession count. The Saints are not a team that you could afford to let up on. They have to play for 60 min., and one thing is for sure you have to watch the game for 60 min.

[bdravens]

Overall a damn good first half, besides that last drive. Defense stepped up and offense looks good. IMO one of the best halfs we've played this year.

A great stop to start the second half. We're kicking.

[SnOoPy]

C'mon Ravens! We still have 2 more quarters to play!

[Militant X 1]

great start! but...once again, we have seen 2 things:

1st...21-7 IS NOT enough to put teams away....especially teams like the Saints

2nd..our defense can't handle or stop that "no-huddle" or 4-5 WR attack of these passing teams.

21-14

that is not nearly enough points to win this game! let's go OFFENSE AND DEFENSE!!

LET'S GO RAVENS!!!
