[Blogs] Late For Work 10/25: Suggs Sounds Off

[The Negotiator]

Flacco dose not have the mental game at this level to play QB. Yes bad play calling but if anyone has listen to his Pizza Hut commercials he is just mentally slow and that is how he reads the field slow. Has the arm and body but not the mind, I was a full Flacco supporter but with the talent on the field there is no reason for these loop sided performances. No extension for Flacco unless it is around what he got as a rookie, anything more then the Ravens over paid.

[Waka Flocka Flacco]

I vote for Flacco to scoop slam Cam, and to shove that retarded play list Cam is always fiddling with you know where. Give Joe a wrist band with some plays and let the man play. When our offense can perform the plays that are being called its time to bench the play caller!

[Kleermynd Raven]

How long will it take an organization to see that Cam isn't that great. Harb's & Co. are in such denial it's sickening. Then again, Harb's totally botched the end game scenario which doomed us. After Scobee's FG to put them up by 5, he kicked it right out the back of the endzone. Cundiff couldn't? WE WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTE OFF KICKING DEEP BUT OUT OF BOUNDS. THEY GET THE BALL AT THEIR 40 AND FG AFTER GOING 3 AND OUT.

[Waka Flocka Flacco]

Cam isn't the only one to blame. Joe didn't play well, the oline couldn't block, and receivers couldn't get open.

[ravenrave123]

They didn't call Cam's playbook an IHOP menu for no reason, now we know why

[Mystigo_Dragon]

There it is in a nutshell! The Gospel according to T-Sizzle: %u201CI don%u2019t really know what the game plan was, but when I have a Pro Bowl running back and I see he is not getting his touches, I%u2019m going to feel a certain type of way about it,%u201D

There is no Game Plan,... Cam is going to have the Ravens squander another year with a Super Bowl-capable team watching it on TV with the rest of us!

[Legendary Ravens]

I woke up this morning feeling sick and empty. I'm moody now w/a messed up attitude. Like Sizzle Said "...it's the way we lost" I do not like feeling like this. I'm angry with no smile today. Arizona will feel this frustration

[DixonBlake]

I'm sad to say, I'm off the Flacco bandwagon. I've been defending him vehemently for the past 3 years, but I just don't have the energy anymore. I hate it when fans scream for him to be benched...because the truth of the matter is he shouldn't be. He's a starter and he's better than any other option we have. When he's good he's really good. But when he melts down, boy is it ugly.

This defense is sick. Really really nasty. And Joe is holding us back at this point.

[Forevermore20]

Is there anyway to get this to Ozzie, Steve, and John?

Its the routes that kill us every time. basically the play calling. its very vanilla. We don't do anything to confuse the defense.. What you see is what you get. Zorn was the scapegoat last yr. No one to cover his @ss this year. If we don't go to the super bowl, both Cam and Flacco will be in question. Under Zorn, Flacco had his best year statistically. You fire that guy? Yet you keep the guy calling the plays? lol... I mean really think about this. Flacco has his best year, throws only 9 or 10 picks, looked solid throughout the year and then you fire his coach? instead of the guy who calls the plays and can't get his receivers open? We go and get speed and he still can't get receivers open. You have to wonder the logic behind this. Play calling will kill us when it matters most once again. In addition to that, Cundiff leads the league in touchbacks, jags barely moved the ball all game, and you neglect to kick the ball deep? Nerves? I don't understand this crap. Not fair to the defense, not fair to the fans.

[Kleermynd Raven]

I think we should keep the system, tweak it a bit with better route combos, playcallng and bring back Jim Zorn. Flacco was actually mad he was fired. Flacco clearly is more comfortable with Zorn. What do y'all think?

[Mystigo_Dragon]

@Waka Flocka Flacco: Joe doesn't like Cam and has not bought into his scheme ever since Jim Zorn was unceremoniously released in favor of Cam!

As long as Harbs allows Cam unsanctioned reign over the Offensive game plan, Woodley is right, Joe will never win a Super Bowl for the Ravens!

Please, please, please let me hear a news bulletin today that says Cam id gone!!!

[newrorayfan]

Ray Rice is a free agent after this season, as a fan of Ray Rice since high school i have 3 words only for Ray "just leave baby!"

[psho]

@Gametyme - not off topic at all, goes along with the "refs are confused" article. They mentioned the hit by Pollard, you mentioned the "mulligan" they gave to the Jags on that kickoff to bring in 11 players, and I'll bring up the fact that the refs blew the whistle on Flacco when there was CLEARLY at least 1-second left on the clock. I am not blaming the refs for this loss, our offensive was the worst I have ever seen it, but you can't deny the refs were blowing calls left and right

[Yum Chickens]

On the bright side, our defense played very well.

[IceDevilHH81]

Well a huge part of this lost came from the Reffs... the Helmet to Helmet was a Joke, also the ejection (i have seen worse in the nfl without a penalty) and till this momment i can`t understand the Reff blowing the whistle before the delay of game for the Jax because they had only 10 players on the field! All those calls where made in key situations!

[Zeus]

Well, how does everyone feel today? Hey Cam Cameron - how are you doing? please wipe that smile off your face - you have nothing to be happy about! I just want to thank ozzie and John once again for keeping Cameron as our O-line coach - he proved his worth once again last night.

Do I blame Joe - 100% NOOOOOOOOO yes he had mistakes, but how can he throw the ball with no zero protection????

[Zeus]

What hurts the most is NOT the loss, let me make that crystal clear!!!!!!!!

The issue is that we lost to a bottom feeder team in the NFL, what the heck?!?!! Each year we bring in all these hyped up players that will help us and NOTHING changes!!!

[Zeus]

There

[Zeus]

Maybe its time to remove Cam?

[55 ways to rush the passer]

I went to the game last night and I'm appalled by the way our offense performed. All night long the Jags D dared us to throw with a single high safety look and never once did they throw it over five yards until the fourth quarter!

I have no idea what Cam is thinking out there or Flacco, who couldn't hit the broad side of a barn last night, but something has to change. Remember 06? Or 2000? Take your pick Harbaugh because the season depends on a change or that seat will be mighty hot soon!

[Kleermynd Raven]

We shouldve kicked deep but at an angle...touchback or out of bounds. Either way, no time off the clock. Best case for them, they get the ball on their 40, no FG and maybe they pin us on the ensuing punt, but its only a difference on 15-18 yards from where we started after the FG (the "20" after Scobee did what the coaching staff felt Cundiff couldn't). So for the same distance we had to travel to score a TD, we couldve traveled less to get a game winning FG. WHAT DO Y'ALL THINK???

[The Ez Factor]

Cam is the absolute worst. How can you not perform to the highest with the players we have on offense?? The only reason he's still with the Ravens is because we still win despite him. He doesn't even attempt to confuse defenses so they know exactly what to expect and then hes totally hopeless at making adjustments. This happens even when we get a W. And i'm done defending flacco, he never EVER changes the play. He's got no balls. We're gonna lose in the playoffs again because those two do not know what it takes to overcome adversity in the NFL. We've been saying it for the past 2 years: FIRE CAM!!!

[Waka Flocka Flacco]

I agree with you Zeus, but we have a target on our backs now that we've been allocated as one of the best AFC teams. Looking back 4-2 at this point isn't so bad it just sucks that we lost to teams everyone would have thought we would beat. If we sweep our division it wont matter, we can do it.

[gametime]

ah well.....we'll make up for this.......

[killaflacco]

with a defense as good as the one we have there is no reason for us to be losing games to the titans and jaguars the way we did.our offense was so embarrassing last night it was unbelievable.we still could have a decent season but we have no chance of winning a sb.my new hope for this season is sweeping pitsburgh.even if we dont go all the way as long as we sweep them and get 1 playoff win i can hang my hat on that.after this season though something has to be done about this offense.15 years of hoping we can fix that side of the ball atleast for 1 season is more than too long.especially when your the best on every other phase of the team.

Yup. The Ravens have one full-contact practice this week. I'd make sure the offense "pays" for their "don't give a damn" attitude. 4 receivers and 4 man to man coverages and no one open? 6 blockers against a 4 man front and the pocket collapses? No quick slants or curl routes? Can Cam take any longer to get plays in when the offense is trying to be "urgent"? And Joe, light a fire under the offense's tails. Jog up to the line when there is urgency. Everyone is following your nonchalant attitude.
No one and I mean no one having anything to do with offense seemed to care last night. Disgusting.

Hey man I totally agree with you. But regardless we have to play better. Its only gonna get tougher and that means our team has to go even harder. Last nite was an abysmal dsplay of an offense coming together to win . We will not ever get over that final hump iff we can't fix that . We can be 16 - 0 but eventually what does it matter if you cant survive in the playoffs,

[Kleermynd Raven]

It shouldn't matter. This offense has to find a way to score 21 points a game which is average in the NFL. Bring Zorn back, Let Cam go and keep the system, but tweak it.

at least that titans game wasn't as bad as this one

[DW714]

Joe Flacco had the nerve to gripe in the offseason about getting a new contract? Are you kidding me? He needs to show that he can be more consistent before I would even consider giving him a new contract right now. The only player that I would give a new contract to at this point is Ray Rice. If Ben Grubbs gets healthy, I would pay him as well (maybe the franchise tag). My concern for Grubbs though is that it's a Jonathan Ogden type of situation, where the toe never completely heals. Ogden is still dealing with toe issues to this day. If this is going to be a chronic toe issue for Grubbs, maybe drafting a guard in the first or second round won't be a bad idea. Back on Flacco, I'm tired of defending him. I can't do it anymore.
