PDO

Boldin has single handedly won us 2 games in the last year

.... first against Zona.

.. and now tonight against Cleveland.

I don't care if it's Cleveland I care that when this team needed a big time performance... Q showed up and made catch after catch. He did it last year when we fell behind vs. Arizona and he did it again tonight when things weren't breaking like they should vs Cleveland.

Lets hear it for Q, who was a BEAST tonight!

Torrey Smith is awesome and Jacoby Jones is having a great season so far. But, Anquan is our best receiver. I remember the Arizona game and Anquan won that game just like tonight's game.

QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ stepped up big-time tonight. Let's also give some credit to Flacco for finding him with some pinpoint throws.

This is why the development of Torrey was so important.

Once they started doubling Torrey, Q got his opportunities and took advantage of them.

I can go in many directions with this, but I like Boldin and we won! Great game, Q. Let's murder KC next.

I'm so glad we didn't go with Little. He's a big mouth and has butterfingers.

Torrey and Anquan compliment each other quite well and Jacoby's a good 3rd option. It always helps when your RB can catch too! Hope to see more from Dickson, though.

Yeah he belongs in Detroit. I'm proud of our record drafting high quality and classy players.

[/quote]Agreed.

I think as a fanbase, we were wondering if Q was still even on our team or not! :lol: To note though, some of those catches he made, only a few QBs in the world could make those throws.

In defense of Torrrey and Jones, Anquan was probably the one guy, who was the least tired after that 4 games in 18 days stretch. Remember Smith was the MVP in the NE game and Jones was the only one, who got open against the Eagles. Now it was Qs turn to get open.
Pitta and Dickson just were exhausted. Dennis couldn't get open in the red zone and catch the ball out of the air, how often does that happen?

As a Ravens fan, I love that we have had different key players including Pitta, Torrey and Q. Shows how multidimensional we are with who we can rely on at any given time.

As a fantasy owner, glad I don't have any of them due to the consistency factor lol :(

I'd love to see that, but this team always "[i]dumbs down[/i]" to weaker opponents for some reason.

This would imply that boldin didn't give any effort at all
Just because he isn't getting killer stats doesn't mean he isn't leaving it all on the field too.

I like blowouts, and it drives me crazy when we play easy on them.

I want no part of the Ravens in that cover. I believe in the curse. See Calvin Johnson mystery injuries lately...

You are right, in my mind he did. Game ball Q!!! (Torrey gets honoralble mention, the way he stepped up with the tragic loss of his dear little brother, wow!) Q and Torrey, what a great tandem combination!

I disagree, those teams step up when playing us. Trust me, we are circled on a lot of opponents calenders.

Q did a great job in the second half, but Torrey tore the Browns up in the first half. Once they started doubling him it was easy for Boldin to get open. There aren't many #2 corners in the league who can keep up with Boldin, and certainly not without safety help.

I though Boldin might drag the defense into the end zone with him when he made that catch down inside the 10. Those were some impressive moves. The guys a great receiver, and it's a lot easier on him with more receivers who can threaten on the field.

I think the combination of Torrey + Boldin + Jacoby might be one of the better combinations in the league.
Torrey, with no doubt, is one of the better deep threats in the league and now as we all can see he's a complete receiver. Boldin is a great possesion guy who is tough to bring down and, a thing that not many see, he's a great run blocker. And Jones, the missing piece.. So fast. I honestly think each one can own a team - You can't cover all 3.. Torrey and Jacoby demand double teaming due to their speed (Just ask Nnmadi or everyone who went against Torrey) and Boldin just takes over when he's needed.
Also, another thing I like about Torrey and Boldin.. They WILL hit you if you try and go for the int. And they hit HARD.
