Well, what if we have Webb, Lewis and Pitta then?

PPeople, please stop with the whole...the Ravens won because of no Ben. As if not having Ray, Webb and Jimmy, didn't have a impact on this game. As if no Troy P and Brown didn't impact thiss game.

Injuries are a part of this game, period.

I thought the Cam play calling was horrible in this game . Worse then any game this year by far .

Absolutely. The pass play at the 2min warning was pretty bad.

You're worried because we keep winning?

We've heard this since week 4. If we dont some offence, we will be lucky to limp into the playoffs. If we don't figure out how to win on the road we won't make the playoffs.

And yet. Here we are, 8-2, and we beat the steelers on their own field. And we are still complaining!!!

Holy cow.

Honestly, the conservative offense was ok with me, we didn't turn the ball over, and thats always huge, just need work still on 3'rd down. D stepped up and ST was huge today. Ok enough of that, San Diego next...

My question to this is: does anyone honestly think we lose this one if Ray, a 100% healthy Suggs, Webb and Pitta are in this game?

Point being, injuries are injuries bro. It's the NFL, they happen everyday. You gotta play with the men you have. The Ravens did and somehow came away with the win. Nothing more needs to be said.

Why? It served the same purpose as a run. The safe throw is either there or you take the sack and keep the clock moving. I wasn't haappy with the overall play calling but not that one

We won. Against Pitt. In Pitt. The #1 D.

Let it go! 8-2!!!
[/quote]

No kidding.

But we didn't win by 50! And I didn't like the play calling. And if Ben had been there.

To quote Boldin..."scoreboard."

I'd rather run it, big uglies vs uglies. Flacco did the absolute right thing to take the sack (even though people bashed him) instead of trying to force it to a blanketed guy for an incompletion or worse.

In the end, it worked out the same as a failed run but it had much more likelihood of turning out poorly

Congrats on a hard fought win. Koch should get a game ball...that dude kicked the lights out and kept us backed up all night. The Ravens special teams was the difference.

Yea, but remember not too much earlier in the game, their big uglies stuffed our run on 3rd and inches. But i agree with you, i'd rather run in that situation as well. Smashmouth, but i can't call that a poor decision on Cam's part

Perhaps. Maybe it's just that we lined up in shotgun and basically let them know we were passing, too

Doesn't matter. Games are played and decided on the field at the time with whoever's there. Bottom line....doesn't matter.

He needs to be a little more durable and stop getting hurt and then maybe we'd find out. You play against who suits up! If you cant/dont suit up, well, sorry!

Our whole game plan on offense and defense changes with Ben out there. It's impossible to play "what if" games like that. The truth is, it's impossible to know.

Also, if Squealers fans can keep saying "we would've won with Ben" then can't we counter about Webb, Ray Lewis, and Jimmy Smith being out? I mean, seriously, Chris Johnson and Corey Graham were out there making big plays.

Fun game to watch. I'm mostly just glad we escaped with a W.
Now, there was the defense I know and love, now where's the offense I know and love? They can never really show up at the same time, can they?
