Preseason 1 - Baltimore Ravens at Atlanta Falcons

[purple_koolaid]

Why are we taking the ball off Painter's hands. C'mon man!

[J.Flacco#5]

Let go that touchdown is close!

[IceDevilHH81]

Can only follow the Game Center over here in Germany but O. Brown has a really nice game!

[Token]

I can't wait for the Painter for starter threads so I can have a good laugh.

This RB battle is interesting.
And is Berry hurt?
Nice runs though.

[PuRock]

I'm iffy on Berry. I think he's a longshot at making the team this year.

Its a shame that we have so much young talent to pick from. We just need some of them to really breakthrough and shine.

If I told u early this afternoon that painter would have 3 td passes and there is a women ref in the nfl... You would never believed me.

I knew about the female ref because there are actually two, but the other one is part of the "real" group of refs that is not doing games right now. She was supposed to be the first female NFL ref, but this "backup group" female ref gets the credit thanks to the current ref situation.

But yeah....I might not have believed the Painter TDs.

Half. I already knew about the women ref a while ago. But yeah haha ridiculous.

[TreTheRaven]

Hope Berry is okay.

[Rhaeiven]

So overall, good game or bad?

[Moderator 3]

Berry might be cramping up but it's hard to tell.

People need to start eating their words. Tyrod Taylor has pretty much been crowned by the fans without earning squat.

[bravensfan52]

Think about this.... Painter almost be PIT last year

curtis is doing ok but he need to look around more
[/quote]

There is a reason he didn't win any of his starts last year. Pre-season is an evaluation tool for the young guys and Painter is nothing more than a camp body. These over reactions are ridiculous. He's playing mostly guys who will barely make the 53-man at this point, this isn't impressive.

[Token]

From what I gather from game center, Berry was starting to look good then got injured?

Great.. I think he makes the ps again this year.

That's because of veterans not caring about preseason. Ed Reed for example, won't do anything in a preseason game, but in practice he's making plays.
[/quote]I buy that with the defense, not so much the offense. But we'll see.

[ravne05]

This board understands it is preseason just curious.

Stop hating. Taylor played against the same guys and stunk.

[TreTheRaven]

C'mon, Painter. Go for touchdown pass number 4 this drive!

[J.Flacco#5]

Cirtus has no Interceptions and 3 Touchdowns and probably going to get more TD.

[hawkprey]

Atlanta is thinking right now "Come on, defense! You're making this guy look like Peyton Manning's successor!"

See in Indy they think Luck is the next Manning. Little do they know...

[/quote]Great depth, unimpressive from the starters

[Lightlock]

The Berry injury doesn't look serious.

[J.Flacco#5]

Demian Berry Is out of the Game.

[display name]

I think we could use Tyrod for Suggs Package stuff and Painter for actual backup QB work.

A better question is who made plays and who didn't.

O-Line still has work. CBs need to get back to fullspeed. We'll be fine at WR. Deonte made plays.

They got off to a slow start, but got it together. Better than a lot of other teams playing tonight. Wait a couple of weeks yet.

[Rhaeiven]

@rave05, you should of checked earlier, you would have though it was a playoff game!

[J.Flacco#5]

I am listening to the falcons radio and they don't sound to happy. WE don't know why Do we...
