I was expecting a 'Waterboy' moment.  They pan over to the Bill sideline and they are reading 'Football for Dummies' laughing.

This was the game to get the lead in the AFC North and we of course blew it up.

 

Now imagine, the Ravens faced a fairly shoddy team at their home in the Bills..

 

Imagine the Dolphins, who are an immensely good team, at their house?

This is gonna suck.

 

The Dolphins are 3-0 but they are by no means an immensely good football team. Plus, their "home field advantage" isn't really an advantage. We will win!

GENO SMITH beat the Bills.  The same Bills team that made Flacco look very bad.

Are you going to tell me Geno Smith has better receivers than Joe Flacco?

Before you blame any receivers... you first would have to explain why you would continually throw to the slowest player on the field in Dallas Clark, for a 2 yard route.... where he will out-run nobody, and will make nobody miss with any sort of elusiveness.

Then you'd have to explain why you would throw a jump-ball to the shoertest player on the field, instead of.... ANYONE ELSE.

If you look at the final score, sure... he broke 300 passing yards, and he had 2 TDs... but you have to start considering that Flacco is really not playing up to par.

Or, we can keep blaming the offensive line, the receivers, and the playcalling because I guess that's just easier to take.

Defense gave him numerous times to bring them back.  In the end... all you needed was to get in range of one of the best kickers in the league.  That's it!  Didn't even need to score a TD.  But what happens?  Turnover.

And honestly... almost EVERY CALL went the Ravens way today.  If you can't take advantage of that, something else really needs to change.

What makes me angry is how everyone else wants the Ravens to be bad and says they will be bad. The Ravens are also not doing much to prove them wrong either...

With this loss, we will fall to like, 23rd, on the "NFL Power Rankings" while Cincinnati who also lost without a TD to the Browns will remain in the top 10.

Anyone who watched that game can't blame it all on Flacco.

 

OL was horrible.

 

Worse rushing performance I've probably ever seen.

 

Couple picks off of tipped and dropped passes. Couple bad throws.

 

Defense played good. Was clearly tired in the second half but still did good under the circumstances imo.

 

 

Flacco didn't play good by any means, but he's getting no help what so ever. It wouldn't matter who was playing QB for us today. We got outplayed on every level. Our entire offense is a serious problem.

These guys suck
Oline
Ed Dickson
Every other WR not named Torrey Smith
Corey Graham


Yep.. Looks about right

Oh, and Juan Castillo

Certain players from the front 7 should be there. Over 200 yds rushing is unacceptable.

[quote name="Hardbaugh" post="1604985" timestamp="1380486937"] Flacco is the highest paid player on the team, way , way overpaid , he's an average quarterback and this team will win no more division titles until the front office takes out the garbage. Flacco sought to be the highest paid player in football, he got it, he talked a good game this offseason. too bad for him they actually play the games and employ statisticians. His stats rank lowest of the low... He is what I thought he was...[/quote] You whine about this every year and every year we have gotten into the playoffs. Maybe you didn't see the run game today . That killed the pass game . They work in tandem .FYI .

the lack of a solid rushing attack with this team is pissing me off!  big time!  Joe Flacco can't carry this team to victories on his arm alone!  he can't do it!  the FO needs to accept that!  being a high octane, no huddle type of passing offense IS NOT this team!  they don't have that type of personnel!  wake the hell up Ravens!  please!  run the damn football!  Ray Rice, Bernard Pierce and Vonta Leach and you can't run?  that's a damn shame!  plus, this O-line is trash and needs to be scrapped!  bring in some pure beasts that take pride in wanting a serious running game!  these cats don't!  smh!

Marcus Spears was probably the biggest problem.

Geno Smith beat the Bills.

 

Ok. But where?

 

At their own house. With the defense containing the Bills even better.

12th man matters.

 

We're a very different team away than at home, no doubt. You should know this if you've been watching the past three years, hell even two years.

This.  By no means did Flacco have a good game, but there's only so much he can do with what he has around him.  It's impossible to play QB with no run game and guys who consistently drop the ball.

The 0 yard runs are embarrassing and that's on the O-line and the backs.

The whole team was a mess today.  But Flacco was bad today even when he had a clean pocket.

Run game sucks, Juan's hire was pointless, wasting a good... decent defense, FLACCO STILL CAN'T THROW A DAMN OUT ROUTE.  Let me also say, had it not been for that dumb pick in the redzone, that's another 3 points.  How about the brilliant jump ball to Rice... yea, Ray, not Sidney, into double coverage.  Ed Dickson is brown water trash, might as well see what we have in Furstenburg.  6th year coaching and Harbaugh still doesn't understand timeouts or challenges.  There was no need to use the TO before they punted and the exact reason was what if we didn't score and needed another stop, or we score quickly(fg) and get an opportunity to score again by using all three?  [profanity deleted]. This damn loss hurts.  Why the hell can't this team string together wins during the regular season, and if not for a miracle play in the post season then either. 

 

 

Wasn't this suppose to be the game we get the run game straight or we should be worried?

Yeah he had bad plays, no doubt.  But again, he can only do so much.  His decision making was poor, no denying that.

Let me say this... Not trying to pound on but i was telling you guys.... You cant just say... Flacco can be that type of QB (who throws more) .... Its not that simple... Thats not his games... With more throws its oppotunities to throw ints...

 

 

This is why so many say stopping Ray Rice is the key... If you cant stop Ray Rice then that opens up your play action passing.  The same with Eli... He has great weapons but its not about the weapons... Its about their GAMES.

 

 

Their Games are heavily based around a run threat

 

 

You guys saving grace is this Defense.... They like your old D's will keep yall in games.
