Not Suprised The Ravens Lost

[omar586]

seriously is anybody surprised that we lost yesterday, come on people:
1- all season we let teams come in second halfs
2- all season we either start hot in the first half and sleep in second half or vis verca.
3- playcallings on both side of the ball was questionable all season, 3rd down specially we can't convert or stop anyone on 3rd down.
4- we haven't beating the steelers(big ben) in meaningful games, so y expect to beat them yesterday.
5- got away from running game alot this season.
6- got away from our formula by get better through the draft not free agency.

My son has been telling me this ALL season and I refused to listen. Our loss yesterday put me into a real funk and he asked me today why I didn't see it coming. He was right all along! The RAVENS are a 30 minute team for the most part. Yesterday was no different. I'm still shaking my head.

I was surprised when the Ravens lost to the Colts in the playoffs in Baltmore back in '06 but this didn't surprise me at all. This team has looked terrible in halfs against bad teams this season why should we expect them to play a complete game against a championship caliber opponent? The staff has a lot of time to get this thing figured out but instead of buying the "we won 12 games" jibberish, I'll trust my lying eyes. I'm not surprised I expected it.
