Week 5: Tennessee Titans At Baltimore Ravens

[WhackoForFlacco]

Ray Lewis is all over the field. He's playing lights out today.

Ed saved your butt Joe.

[Bullrush]

Settle down already Joe. Stop forcing throws. Throw it out of bounds and move on.

[quote name='PuRock' post='72449' date='Oct 5 2008, 02:00 PM']From the Pressbox you could see how bad that INT was. Nobody was open. Mason got open for a second, and there were three guys behind Mason waiting for Flacco to the throw the ball.

I was thinking "Don't throw it to Mason, Don't!" ..That INT was too easy for them.[/quote]

He made a good read in that Clayton cut around for him, but he just threw it too softly for a throw out of the pocket and across the body.

[macbrak]

Ray Ray: he's every where he's every where.

[PuRock]

Well like always the Defense is holding up on their end of the bargain. Where is the offense?

[Ravens52]

Flacco needs to start throwing the ball away.

[Ravnet]

If no one else is willing to say it then I will: put in Ray at quarterback.

[M.E.S]

see i keep telling yall .. when will yall listen to me.. flacco has had luck on his side.. you can't keep relying on luck and our defense. he does that same thing everytime .. instead of throwing it away.. he makes dumb decisions... that monday night play was lucky.. he can't expect to do that everytime..

Lol have him run it in with everyone on the team blocking. Both defenses are out today, but not as much offense.

We hear you, we hear you. No disrespect, but you don't need to keep repeating it -- we get the picture. Just watch the game.

He would just bulldoze everyone.

We all acknowledge that he isn't even a league average QB right now, but we're excited about his potential. At one point in his career he has to take his lumps and hopefully learn. Why delay the process?

[PuRock]

I am unsure why they didn't go with McClain on the 3rd and short. We need every first down we can get against this D.

[Ravnet]

Honestly, screw the special teams unit. Sam Koch is the only redeemable player.

[Ravnet]

We literally give our defense five minutes rest.

I think they were hoping the Titans would over pursue like they usually do.

[macbrak]

Amen x 2.
McClain should have had that carry.
where is st today?

[WhackoForFlacco]

I expected to see the Ravens do better on special teams, especially with coach Harbaugh's ST background. So far this year, I haven't really seen it, especially on punt and kickoff coverage.

why now. though.. why rely on a guy that's learning when we clearly have a defense that can help us compete.. so you are saying this is just another missed opportunity for our defense right

[POE]

We supposed to have a monster special temas this year what the heck happened?!? I am not selling them out yet but damn they have not looked good all year longwith the exception of Koch and the week Leonard stepped in for Figurs.

Koch is doing great. But our special teams have struggled on both ends during the regualar season so far. It is an area where we need vast improvement.

For a Rookie to step in and be average QB would be beautiful. In my lifetime I have only seen that happen once with Big Ben.

[macbrak]

ST looked awesome in the preseason. Last couple games they weren't bad.
Now ugh.

The special teams unit has to be one of the worst in the league.

[macbrak]

Meet Ray...again

[Bullrush]

Worst special teams unit i have seen in years.

I thought that they were pretty pathetic in Pittsburgh and did nothing against Cleveland.

just like yall keep repeating that he has poise and he is doing so great right??? hmmmmmm don't be mad now

[PuRock]

Johnson kept dancing backwards on that play. We are stopping the run, and forcing Collins to make errors. We just need to capitalize on them.
