Week 7 - Baltimore Ravens at Houston Texans

[Markus92]

this looks like a mixture of last years offense and this years defense lol.... fantastic...

[12thmandynasty]

newsflash the are giving the quick passes to torrey smith. Everytime they line up he has a ten yd cushion and 5 cant get a pitch and catch pass to him. We are going to need to take advantage of a soft shelled defense protecting a lead in the 2nd half

Don't you dare blame the o-line for Flacco's game. Flacco had way too many throws that he should complete when he had time. The first 2 sacks are also on him.

Not even!!! You are incorrect!

We have Joe, who has done this before, week 7 last year if I'm correct. We have a chance.
[/quote]We were at home, down only 21, and that was against Arizona.

We're not seeing that today.

Flacco can not beat the Refs allowing the cbs to hold our WRs its not blanket its like asking cody to tackle when some ones holding him , wait thats happening too , Refs are wining the game not the texans

I was an apologist for 4 years, but no more. The Harbaugh/Flacco era needs to end now. I don't care about going to the playoffs. There are two things that are consistent about this era: 1) we can field a playoff team, and 2) we cannot make it any further than that. Flacco has been unbelievably bad on the road his entire career and I don't see any reason why this will ever change at this point. Harbaugh continues to employ an OC who struggles to field a good offense, even with playmakers at every position.

Go ask Eagles fans how much they loved the Andy Reid/Donovan McNabb era. 5 NFC Championship games and not a single ring to show for it. Bisciotti/DeCosta, end it now, don't turn us into the AFC Eagles. This whole season, with the exception of the second half against the Bengals, has made me sick.

IK you all hate bon jovi, but this was the first song I heard called Miracle, actually a decent song. Hes right, we need a miracle. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvoC7XXRU14"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvoC7XXRU14[/url]

[Ravenslifer]

The quarterback play is terrible, the receivers are never open, the offensive line looks like swiss cheese, the running game is not getting the ball enough and not getting any push when they do get the ball, the run defense is non-existent and the cornerbacks look like they're giving Johnson and Walter 10 yard cushions on every play. Other than that we look fine. Seriously it's like not a single Ravens player came to play today - like they were so excited about Suggs' return that they took the day off or something. It's seriously getting close to the point where Harbaugh needs to pull the starters and just mail this one in.

[FerrariFan87]

This game just needs to end before someone else gets hurt... we need this Bye week desperately.

[atljbo]

This is what confuse me.... You guys says this is Flacco team.... I gree you should be running the ball more... But the way Aaron Rodgers picked them apart.. Cam may have felt.. Yall have the weapons and QB to do that.


I agree you guys have one of the BEST Rb's in the game... use the guys... But at the same time if you are Flacco and saying your guy is elite.... Put the game on his shoulder to get the job done... Your D is beat up... Its up to the O to hold the team up.

Not saying I'm biased or anything, but the 2010 ACC Player of the Year is on the sideline ....

[/quote]Biggest overreaction of all time.

[luvrayrice27]

i think this is one of those wake up call games that something needs to be done during the bye to fix our obvious flaws... we cant rely on luck winning the game for us anymore...we'll make it to the playoffs, not sure if we'll win the division though

[Kwothdaraven]

To those saying ti get rid of flacco need to just stop. Both of his picks were deflections, he has no time at all, and theres no obe open because cams ancient scheme that uses boldin like hes calvin johnson

[theblackdog]

Second's about to start, at least we start out with the ball

It sucks to have that kind of attitude but yeah... S*** happens...
[/quote]well sadly all I can do is just hope Pitt loses. Its good to have this type of game in the first of the season. Maybe that means we'll beat San Diego this season.

The Texans are whooping us right now because they are a better team.

[Militant X 1]

we all knew that the Texans are the "new" kids on the block in the AFC as far as their gameplay and playoff push. now, we are wounded and behind enemy lines. i expected them to play with chips on their shoulders BUT also for our boys to respond to the challenge. they have not! this game is just sickening so far. but, it is a man check! a gut check! it's all about pride in the second half. do our boys have it? and if so, how much? we'll see!

if the steelers lose it still won't make me feel better. i wouldn't have cared if we lost but losing this badly kind of changed that.
[/quote]

I work w/ a bunch of Steelers fans and we've conceded to each other that our teams are hurting this season. But, we also agree that we all want the the Brady Bunch to lose under any circumstances. lol.

Wow the boards are going to be FUN this week.

Is good to see all the other games are close so far but were getting blown out hahaha.

Bc the OL has been so amazing? Flacco has been getting hit almost every play, guys tugging on his arm, and all of the Texans DL having free hands to tip passes...

And for damn good reason! Tyrod is awful!!! Awful!!!!!

[ratedr]

We abandoned the run too early. Flacco isn't good enough to pass pass pass against a very good Houston D, and the line isn't good enough to allow him to do that.

5-2, regroup, on to the next. It sucks that we're being blown out but I had this as a loss anyway.

The main thing that annoys me is that everyone will say we lost because of no Ray Lewis. Not even close.

Anyway we did to Houston at their house two years ago, then they came back, we can do the same.

[/quote]What game are you watching? Flacco is having a horrible game.

[ravensdfan]

It isn't losing, it's how broken we look. Even on offense. Like someone else said, it's like Joe and the WRs aren't even running the same play.

Cam sucks as usual. Run is working, let's get pass happy. Now we have little choice down as much as we are. Where is Jones? Where is Boldin? They need to start pushing back and getting separation.

Haven't seen Williams or J. Smith make a play. Reed and Pollard are trying to cover the entire field with Ellerbe trying to take anything short. It's absurd.
