Week 2 - Baltimore Ravens At Tennessee Titans

[Moderator 3]

Darn, that means they can't even put Grubbs in if another lineman goes down.

I worry about every game, can't help it.

I remember last year how the Patriots traveled to Cleveland last year and got curbstomped by a rebuilding Browns team. Any given Sunday, anything can happen.

If CJ is contained, the game is over, period. But will he be contained? The last time he went against us he had a fantastic game (before the injury), and he'll be getting way more carries this week, so we'll see.

I mean I can agree with you to a point. I'm never one to be as optimistic as most on this board. I know that every game is a different struggle. I always tend to believe a game will be close. But on the flip side, as a fan, I have an optimistic hope and I can acknowledge when this team does things well.

Yea he does. I can never remember once when he said something positive about our team. Its always like, the other team is better, we can't stop them, they have pieces that match up well against us.....etc.

Lol, jot trying to defend a negative Nancy poster :-) but as mentioned earlier if we are too aggressive on blitzing, cj could have a couple good runs on us. But still think we win this game, I'm thinking 31-17 ravens with Cary w & e reed getting interceptions. Also thinging we end up with 4-5 sacks.

Grubbs out. Hope the OL is able to repeat their spectacular performance. [b]Is Gurode gonna play guard?[/b]
[/quote]
Ya most likely. He can play back up C, LG, and RG for us it is amazing depth we got compared to before training camp.

Must mean either 1) Grubbs is really injured bad or 2) This team has enough confidence in the backups to get this job down while Grubbs rests.

Hope and Hayes are key losses. I'm also happy that D Williams is out. He's one of those young guys looking to breakout.

Is hope their free or strong safety? And is he normally there starter? (sorry, takes too long to look everything up on my phone). Maybe Evans will have his really big game in week 2.

Understand completely, training for mma is a life style, I didn't start competing until I got out it the service & stopped due to injuries & as you mentioned...family time.

Guessing rice & leach have a little bit better game then, its nice finally having some balance and options on offense. We can run, stretch the field, play action, go two te sets, etc, etc. But still waiting on the 4-5 wr sets now that we may finally have a o-line that can protect Joe.

[ratedr]

Is Gorrer starting today? Brown is listed as being inactive?

He might be active but not starting. Cary and Webb/Foxworth will be the starters.

By the looks of warmups, Mark LeVoir will get the start for Ben Grubbs. We'll see after kickoff. [url="http://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23Ravens"][s]#[/s][b]Ravens[/b][/url]

yea dont see gurode starting over levoir at guard... we'll be fine there... and with hope and hayes out that helps us out a lot

[ratedr]

Derrick Morgan and James Jones are back in the lineup this week for Tennessee (that'll help them on defense), though Hayes is a key lose.

I'm still worried about CJ, I'm not confident that our run D is better than it was in the 2008 season.

Interesting. We'll see how this effects the run game. Last week we loved running to that left side. Have a feeling we might switch it up this week. I am still very iffy on LeVoir. In PS he seemed to spend a lot of time falling to the ground.

Aaron Wilson reported that Gurode will start at LG, but I am not sure if he knows something Duff does not.

CJ took everyone by surprise in 2008. He won't be nearly the threat he is today.

i figured levoir would since he had more time to learn the offense and get in some preseason work... and gurode has played guard but that isnt his natural position

[FlaccoFlicker]

have fun everyone time for food will try and post from time to time but i promised myself not to live in the game thread this season and actually enjoy watching the game
