Preseason 4 - Baltimore Ravens At Atlanta Falcons

[fusuymada]

I'm pulling for a couple bubble guys. I like Allen, Doss, McPhee, LaQuan Williams, Kindle and Kruger. We'll see them all tonight and I hope they produce. I think the young guys have talent and the older guys are ready to finally break out. It will also be interesting to see who does well tonight and gets picked up by another team and then see how well the do there.

I'm so psyched, and it's only PS4. I have a med school exam the day after the Steelers game, and I'm not sure which I'm more nervous about.

Either that or study like crazy the weekend before and watch the game afterwards to take a break. Although it's hard to say if it'll actually be considered a break lol.

Yea he does. That was one of the complaints about him coming out of college. He was mostly effective only out of the shotgun.

So then why do we almost always have Joe under center except on obvious passing downs? To keep the defense on their toes as to not show whether we're passing or rushing?

[Pino]

Make Torrey play all game, throw everything his way. He's bound to catch some of them, it'll get him out of his funk, build his confidence in his game.

this will be a great game for jimmy to go up against two speedy guys in roddy or julio. And iam jumping on the bomb torrey bandwagon he needs to be thown to like 12 times. Also will we finally see our o-line protect flacco??? hopefully

Been there, done that bro. I always found my self scheduling around the Ravens games. Actually, coincidentally my 1st semester of med-school was in week 1, against Pittsburgh with Flacco's debut. I can honestly say I was more worried about the game. Unfortunately, we lost but thank god Kyle Boller didn't start. I really hope this time we win.

It's only preseason, but I'm really excited to get a glimpse of the Ravens "Future" talent

[svt2nv04]

But wait. The whole offensive line is sitting out? Am I reading that wrong?? lol

[svt2nv04]

Nevermind, just got the text. Starting O-line not playing. Wow. Kind of surprised at that.

[scrock]

No new episode tonight... don't ask why I know that.

[Purple_ICE 81]

Anyone know if tandon doss is playing tonight?

[scrock]

basically most if not all our starters are out for this game, its all on twitter..

Tyrod is starter at QB

Flacco out, Rice out, etc

[Mount-Cody]

I'm gonna watch how Jimmy Smith and Cary Williams on defense, and on offense I'm gonna watch receivers, not worrying to much about the running backs or d-line.

[FerrariFan87]

Man, McKinnie needs to get at least [b]one[/b] series... how can we possibly trust him to be able to last a whole game against Pitt without seeing him take a few snaps during live-hitting, while getting his conditioning checked out?? This could come back to bite us.

[hawkprey]

Our starting defense is awesome even without the Big 4, and Redding.

Any news on the Falcons' starters?

[Baltimore Buckeyes]

Really hope Torrey looks better than he has so far.

Yeah, he can't look much worse.

[fusuymada]

typical preseason game 4 as far as who is playing however, I wonder why in all the hype in the pressers telling us over and over how this year was going to be different due to the lockout and the new faces? Why do we even listen to what these guys say during the week because I think they sit around and laugh about what they are going to tell the media and the fans this week that is absolutely bogus.

[PWNEDbyDEANO]

I'm a little bit worried that the O-line won't have seen any live action whatsoever before they face the Steelers but the coaches believe they've made the best decision.

It's a big night for Torrey and Tyrod. Really excited to see how they do.

[CorvusCorax]

Well I am waiting for it to show up via NFL Preseason live. I must say the quality is great after it buffers. It's windowed but you get high-def feed with it.

Edit: I'm watching the Buffalo - Detroit game and waiting until our game comes up.

[Purple_ICE 81]

10 minutes...lets get it!!

[CorvusCorax]

Oh this is [i]<crap>, [/i]it's blacked out. Oh I'm pissed!!!

[CorvusCorax]

Is the game broadcasted on ESPN?

[mhead66]

I can't believe they're not going to play McKinnie at all. You can't expect him to be ready for real-game time speed, with a team he's never played with before... before he plays against James Harrison.

I know it's always a risk to sustain an injury in these meaningless games, but I don't agree at all with this decision. He hasn't played in any games since last January and he's only been with the Ravens for 10 days.

[Purple Nurple]

wow. I have ravens video feed and some baseball game audio feed. Joy!
