[BrianMc]

[Eurich]

I can throw accurate balls but not longer than 25 yards lol.

Plus I'm abit short at 5'10 1/2.

Your abilities would work well in our checkdown offense that is so famous throughout the nfl

[BrianMc]

i can throw a k2 size ball like 40-50 yards im sure someone out on the field would come down with it

[Guest maryland1]

I'm pretty good with a Nerf football, especially the ones with a tail on them!!!

I would suppose the defense.

[BaltimoreBulldog]

All i got to say is if troy or kyle start this year we are in trouble..not to say that we still arent in trouble if joe starts..Maybe we can start willis mcgahee at QB and ray rice at RB and run that wildcat offense darren mcfadden and felix jones ran at arkansas

[BrianMc]

I would suppose the defense.

ahhh the pessimism of a true ravens fan i love it

[rayvenfan_52]

anyone know where I can listen to the game? for free? or post a link up PLEASE

[RavensIQ]

I dont know how far along this thread is cuz i havent read much but all i have to say is HORRENDOUS. where did our defense go in the 1st half and what the heck was that out there on the field when the Ravens had the ball? Did anybody else see that lump of crap wearing 11 ravens jerseys? Was that suppose to be an offense?

[die_hard_raven]

1st of all Walker needs to be given his walking papers. The continous 3rd down completions and moving the ball on him is just sad. Troy showed great mobility and showed he can make plays.. but I admit the passing game was not good at all. The interception.. it was a poor throw.. at the same time anyone on this board that has every played a position where you touch the ball knows that if you can get both hands on the ball you are supposed to come down with the ball or make sure no one else get a chance to catch it by knocking it down.

12 passing yards at the 1/2 is a sad stat but I have to keep reminding myself our starting receivers, TE and tackles are injured. How many teams would have production in those shoes? I know it's preseason but to see something that will give me hope for a positive season. Ray Rice is a beast and was a great pickup but I want a healthy stable offense.

I was really hoping to see more points on the board. Come'on Troy don't let me down and the others cheering for you. We need to end the preseason strong and with positives.

Some mentioned the D didn't really show up tonight. I agree with you

[RavensIQ]

Somebody get Culpepper on the phone...

My eyes hurt from watching the 1st 3 quarters of what supposedly is a NFL football game? Anybody else have this problem? I almost feel like shoving a spoon in my eye to alleviate that pain of the 1st half.

it wasn't pretty. i held me head down and asked why? the stunk it up good in the 1st 1/2

[theFRANCHISE]

Derrick Martin may have swung momentum back our way.

Interception for a TD.

FINALLY.

Clayton and Mason started the game.

Walker should be released before the 4th quater ends

Troy and Kyle are both looking terrible, and im sure joe doesnt want to show them up and he will continue to poor performence

[BrianMc]

rarely in preseason do teams have full starters on both sides of the ball. and rarely do they look as bad as the ravens do tonight

[ham]

can anybody tell me how justin harper is looking?

[bloodravenforlife]

john david-boo boo...lol

[rayvenfan_52]

AHHHH TD RAVENS.....

[Bullrush]

Get Kyle off the field already and let's see what Flacco can do.

[theFRANCHISE]

Justin Harper's been invisible all night. For all I know, he was probably in the game for maybe a handful of snaps thus far. Marcus Smith has gotten more snaps than him, definitely.

There's still a whole quarter left to play, so he might see some more time when Flacco gets on the field.

Anyone know that site where you could listen to the games for free.

Read my previous statement about starting Mcgahee at QB with Rice as the starting RB and running a offense similar to what Mcfadden and Felix jones ran at arkansas..This could be a real possibilty.

Lets keep in mind that our starting corners are not playing and that is huge reason why the defense has looked terrible..now the offense well...we still suck

i think there is a way to listen to the game on there for free

Regardless of what the final score is, you've gotta believe that Coach Harbaugh will still tear into the team for tonight's performance.

If this ends in a win, he'll still congratulate them for fighting hard and not giving up. But, there's no excusing the lackluster performance by the starters on both sides of the ball (offense included, in spite of the opening TD drive).

AMEN!!!

[rayvenfan_52]

You wanna know the sad thing about our team? Why must the defense score points to help the offense out. Its like an even battle most of the time with points between our defense and offense.

hell yeah. i mean you can't let them think this is ok just because it is preseason

I think everyone on this forum should start donating blood because the problems on offense just won't stop, can't someone pls stop the bleeding? I have to be confident and believe things will turn around. I cannot stand to go through another year with the offense in the bottom stats of the league. Disheartening to even think about it.
