Thoughts? Harewood has had his struggles, but I think KO has been the biggest problem.

KO and Oher have been the biggest problems.

My last memory of him was giving up a terrible sack at the end of the Bengals game. Hopefully the reason was becasue he wasn't fully healthy.

Huh? Am I missing something?

Harewood has stuck out to me as a positive in the running game.
[/quote]You're right I feel the same way but he struggles against the pass that's a strength for Bobbie, I was kinda nervous when Harewood was named starter but it worked out hopefully this will as well.

I'm surprised they're taking harewood out. Has he really been playing that poorly?
[/quote]Not at all best player plays Bobbie is healthier now and maybe out played Harewood in practice, or they want experience facing Ware.

Thats what im thinking, they want experience against all the stunts and complex schemes and ware opens up. I think Harewood can be a starting Guard in this league though. His run blocking has been really really good.

Agreed, and did I miss when KO was deemed not goot at RT? I thought he played poorly last game, but good in all of the others. All things considered I'd say he has done great. He was a LT in college, training camp and preseason practice mostly at guard, and reg season only at RT. Darn good to me.

I'd like to see Big Mac back at LT, Oher at RT, and KO at LG for at least one game.
[/quote]
Oher, and Osemele I agree with. Oher is incosistent at LT, at RT he is a pro bowler. McKinne could be very good, it would take speed rushers forever to get away from him. He did good against Harrison last year. KO is better at guard.

I think they drafted Harewood to be a tackle and K.O to be a guard. I don't know why they just won't switch them already. Personally I don't like when the ravens constantly switch lineman around. I feel if you get a set unit and let them grow together, they will gel even more later down the road.

Because KO is a significantly better tackle than Harewood and Harewood was getting the job done at guard.

[/quote]Its pretty clear Ramon wasn't getting it done at guard or he wouldn't be benched.

His run blocking was good but he looked lost in pass protection.

Harewood is inactive today. Strange.
[/quote]not really straight swap. Williams hasn't been active yet. so its natural harewood is inactive

Yeah guess we're running some bigger formations today with 3 TE sets maybe.

[/quote]bajema is a good blocker, i think he could be used as the only tight end quite a lot helping out on ware

He got the job done, just not with flying colors. He was average. I can't imagine why Bobbie is starting now, considering that his strengths and weaknesses are the same as Harewood's strengths and weaknesses. Bobbie is also not as quick as Harewood. He has really slow, plodding feet.

[/quote]williams strengths is pass blocking, which is what harewood flopped at. We must have seen different things, to me harewood has been the worst lineman in pass blocking, closely followed by KO.

Really? I think I remember Williams getting killed in pass blocking in the preseason. I thought he had a reputation as a run blocker? I could be wrong.

I agree that Harewood's pass blocking has been inconsistent, and atrocious at times.

Is Harewood injured? Because if he was replaced because of performance Bobbie Williams definitely has played better these past 2 games.

If Harewood can't play then let Jah Reid get a shot. Flacco could get mauled like J.Cutler or A.Rodgers with B.Williams doing oh'las like he's a bull fighter
