I Know Seattle Has A Good Run Defense....

[gabefergy]

But it is inexcusable the lack of touches Ray Rice is getting. Cam is really calling a terrible game. There is still time to turn this around, but Cam needs to get better and soon.

Please use the Game Thread to discuss the game in process.

[BloodRaven]

50 pass attempts, by any means necessary.

[EnVy_CaLiBeR]

Cam has to go. Period. 11 touches for Rice? Really?

[reediddy]

Pathetic playcalling, true, but it still gave us a chance to win, and we were behind anyway. Flacco was off and our receivers were dropping passes. They were unmotivated which is a product of the coaching staff

[T3hRaven]

Am I seriously the only one who realizes how mediocre of a back Ray Rice is? Everyone will come around eventually I'm sure, but right now I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. The dude is behind an elite blocking fullback and is averaging less than 4 YPC. Willis has more yards and a much higher YPC for the Broncos, and if I remember right he's been injured a bit this year. I love his personality, but all Ray Rice is is a slightly better version of Darren Sproles. You can't claim that the Broncos, or even the Texans last year with Leach, had a superior offensive line, yet Willis is putting up the numbers this year and Foster dominated with Leach last year. Our running game is an absolute joke, and as much as I hate Cam Cameron I can't put Rice's pathetic rushing numbers on him.

[Free Agent]

We should have at least tried to establish the run in the first half. We never had a chance in the second half since we were playing catch up. Regardless, Rice needed way more carries. Cam must go!

Seattle has a good young secondary. They didn't even have to guess defensively all game. The game calling was questionable at best, but...

After the second fumble, I knew it was over. Teams just never recover from something like that. We almost did, and that was only because Seattle sucks. If that was the Squealers, we would have lost by five touchdowns today.

[PWNEDbyDEANO]

I won't be buying any of the "our options were limited with the scoreline against us" BS. Cam called a bad game today but the execution wasn't there either. I think we just have to accept that we were outplayed and outcoached all over today.

He is not making people miss like he use to in the passing game and he does look slow at times.

[ravens rule]

We pass way too much because of our slow starts then we have to play catch up.Harbaugh better fix the running game or we will not win next week for sure.

As an avid Pittsburgh STEELERS fan, I am writing to tip my cap to the Ravens for two solid wins against my team. You deserve the credit; heck, we would take it. But I am writing a sincere post - not a jab against the Ravens. You guys have proven yourselves to be among the 4 or 5 elite AC teams; but my hard to swallow point is this:
You guys would have already made the Superbowl recently if you had an elite QB. Flacco is a solid winner; but a championship winner be is not. If I were running the Ravens, beginning with the coming draft, I'd be looking for a gem of a QB in the 2nd or 3rd rounds. Don't make the STEELERS's same Kordell Stewart mistake. Heck, if the STEELERS did not finish 6-10 about nine years ago, we would not have Big Ben.
I wish you guys luck the rest of the way cause you all may have won the battles, but you know as well as I that we will be seeing each other again in January. And cause you beat us twice, we will have to come to you. And there is NO WAY Flacco is going to win a game that counts. Make NO MISTAKE, THIS SEATTLE GAME MEANT A LOT TO YOU ALL!
So see you in January and if you want one of those beautiful silver trophys to make a matched set, do what I wrote - START LOOKING FOR THAT ELITE QB NOW AND NOT AFTER THE WINDOW OF WINNING AT THIS LEVEL HAS CLOSED.
THE TERRIBLE FAN

I just wanted to give Kudos to Seattle. I thought they were a decent team before this game and even more after. They seized the opportunity when it was presented. Making key 3rd down conversions, making FGs, causing turnovers.

I thought Tavares could surprise us but I thought we could shut down Lynch. Was I wrong about that.

And their unkown corners. They were big and physical.

I tip my hats off to them. Tired of just blaming our guys.
