Week 17 - Baltimore Ravens at Cincinnati Bengals

[ravensdfan]

Hoping for the Chiefs, Colts or Chargers to win the AFC.

 

All the C teams.

 

No to Indy. Not ever. Don't care who plays them, hope they never sniff another SB.

 

I could get behind the Chiefs. Don't think they've ever won one.

[Purple City Bird Gang]

cocky philip rivers for the win

I'd rather see Rivers in than Ben

[Raving_Heathen]

I think we've scored the fewest amount TDs in franchise history, coupled with a HORRIBLE run game ... It's safe to so, it's at least one of the worst we've had.

 

Has to be.

 

This has got to be one of the most ineffective offenses we've ever had just as far as moving the chains. Then by the end of the year, that got combined with the inability to score in the redzone.

[darklight1216]

Would Bobby Rainey have helped our running game this year?? That was a head scatcher....Harbs thought Brandon Trawick was better

Nah, that line is beyond help.

[Ravenseconbeast]

Geno smith/Mark Sanzhez/Brandon Weeden/Matt Schuab: "Dang! I wish I was bmore QB! Those QB apologists worships anything down there! Kyle boller, Flacco"

Give ME 120M!

[Ravensallday24/7]

Comparing him to Eli is one thing, comparing him to Peyton and Big Ben, far superior QBs, is another.

Yet he beat them both. Before. Just because he had a down season doesn't mean we discredit what he did before.

[Sami84]

I'd rather see Rivers in than Ben

 

Same.

[ravensdfan]

Rooting for the Pats.

 

Blasphemy!

 

smh get outta here with that.

[StingerNLG]

I keep telling the Flacco Haters' Club to name me just one QB who had to deal with everything, including losing their 2 main targets to injuries that had a successful season but the crickets just keep chirping.

 

Matt Ryan........oh wait, he didn't have both his starting wide receivers the entire year either.   What's the Falcon's record again?

[Latch]

Is it all Joe's fault? Not at all. Does Joe have a hand in it? Yeah, definitely.

 

I don't love Joe but I don't hate him. I think he's extremely above average, and I think we saw his ceiling in the superbowl. It was a high ceiling, but I don't see us getting there again. He needs a solid supporting cast, and he just doesn't have that this year. He can't bring up the play of others around him.

[Smothy]

Quarterbacks don't beat other quarterbacks. They beat teams.

Oh shut up..Ben or peyton could never put up as poor stats as flacco has no matter how bad their team could be

[Ravenseconbeast]

Lol thats not even close to being true

Go check yourself buddy.

[Ed_Reed20]

Would Bobby Rainey have helped our running game this year?? That was a head scatcher....Harbs thought Brandon Trawick was better

 

Stop. Rainey wouldn't have done squat behind the o-line. 

[ccflraven]

Nah, The Caw will write a story about Joe buying a cheese tray at Krogers and we'll all be kissing the ground he walks on. This frustration will last a couple days at best. 

maybe he will go to mcdonalds

[Ravenseconbeast]

And yet we still almost made the playoffs .

definitely not BC of flacco.

[Latch]

He was good in Denver because he had a good cast around him. Baltimore has a lot of overpayed players who can't make a play

 

We tend to jump at flashes in the pan. I mean, we definitely lightened our wallets with Rice, Ngata, Suggs, Webb, and they're good, but not great. Same with Dumervil.

[quote name="ravensdfan" post="1725848" timestamp="1388351528"] lol the same part of receivers that don't get separation, an OC that calls 2 running plays that gain a net of 1 yd when we're 2 scores down, garbage time, desperation mode INTs that mean nothing other than an opportunity for the haters to talk about INTs, a dismal running game all season. I keep telling the Flacco Haters' Club to name me just one QB who had to deal with everything, including losing their 2 main targets to injuries that had a successful season but the crickets just keep chirping. Not going to lie, if I'm Joe Flacco I'm going into that office and telling them if they don't fix the O line, trade me. Bunch of ungrateful fans on top of media crap, don't know why he stayed here.[/quote] I agree . Flacco won't last much longer in the NFL with this type of oline

so..here is the big question..what are we going to do with these past their prime cap eaters?

[YouBaltimorefansMAdlol]

lol

[jimmypowder]

[quote name="Ravenseconbeast" post="1725904" timestamp="1388351751"] definitely not BC of flacco.[/quote] Flacco won several games for us this year . The whole team needs to be revamped because our D Cannot stop anyone late in the game either

[StingerNLG]

Some of you are absolutely proving me right.  

[Ravenseconbeast]

Where is that money coming from to give joe flucco that 'supporting cast'??

120M hello??

[The Mom Gene]

One stat I want to look up.....  They call it a Super Bowl Hangover for a reason.....  How many teams have NOT made it to the playoffs the year after winning a Super Bowl....

[Claire]

23

 Oh, didn't know that.  Thanks.

[Gordo52]

It's a game thread - everyone's emotions are up. Don't take it too personally.

I'm not and your right. But I've seen the same posters react the same way after a win in the middle of the week.

[YouBaltimorefansMAdlol]

Superbowl hangover isnt what causes your $120 Qb to throw 20+ ints. 

[Zeus]

Harbs must be proud of the product he put on the field this season

[ravensdfan]

Man please Flacco was bailed out by Ray Rice and the defense all year last year. He got hot for 4 games and you act like he is quarterback gold. He hasn't done anything except play in every game every year. There is just no one here now to make up for his mistakes. 22 ints really? And Jacoby Jones was the real MVP of superbowl 47

 

I wish we could ban people from posting when they've proven they know zero about football and/or this team.

 

That defense we had last year? You mean the one ranked down in the 20's? The one that allowed the most points EVER in the history of the NFL for a SB winning team in the post season? The defense that nearly allowed the 49ers to COMEBACK from a 28-6 deficit to win the game? Man, that defense didn't bail anyone out of anything.

 

Get outta here until you've studied up some.
