Have y'all seen any TC updates on him 

 

When I went yesterday, Camp was catching a lot of balls and being shifty after the catch. If he keeps it up, he's going to be a nice little weapons for the Ravens.

Sounds good to me, thanks

If we can have both, then good. I'm just saying that putting a higher priority on individual success versus the entire team's success is just flat-out ludicrous.

 

When did anyone do that? I didn't read any posts, that read "I don't want us to make the playoffs". The choice between Flacco's and the team's success was never made and judging by Flacco's historically great playoff run in 2012/13, both go hand in hand. 11 TDs to 0 INT over a 4 game stretch would be just as impressive statistically in the regular season as it would be in the playoffs.

I'm with you.  I've liked Camp since watching a few WF games last fall.

Save a seat for me on the Camp train!!

I'll go with Timmy Jernigan

Amen! Count me in on the Timmy Jernigan bandwagon also. I think this kid will be awesome and in a couple of years will have Geno Atkins type impact...

I am just saying that if I had a choice between a Flacco Pro Bowl and a playoff push, I would go for the playoff push every single time. I'm cautioning people to look beyond mere individual stats, and look to the team as a whole. If Flacco can throw 40 TD's and lead his team deep into the playoffs, then by all means, I'm all for it. But if Flacco throws only 28 TD's, and still leads this team to the Super Bowl and wins, then to heck with the stats.

Actually, 12/13 wins sounds better than Flacco passing for 40 TD's and a record of 8-8 or 9-7 and missing the playoffs. I don't care about the guy's stats... I care about if he can get us into the place where he shines the best, the only place that truly counts.

Right. Obvious. But we're talking about the bandwagon of a player, not the teams record or where they finish. I want WAY more than 4k yards and 20 something TDs.

I got nothing to say here except...well, duh!

Oh, right.. my bandwagon?

 

Rick Wagner. He's gonna be a noticeable improvement over the cone we had last season.

I'm not so sure 28TD/12INT is suppose to be impressive for QB that gets paid like Joe does..

 

True. But it's impressive for somebody who hasn't seen much better out of their team's quarterbacks.  :D

 

It's like with the Orioles. All five of their starters are right around the league average ERA and that seems fantastic to me because I'm still used to seeing a full rotation of guys with a 5.50 ERA.

 

I'd be happy with that stat line from Joe and I think it would be more than enough to put us back into the playoffs.

I think anybody who expects Joe to jump from 19 TDs and 22 picks to 35-40 TDs and less than 10 INTs is just setting themselves up for disappointment. Joe Flacco is my favorite player and I will fight to the death defending him, but I have my doubts that he can put up those kinds of numbers in his first season in a new system. I think my stat line is very realistic, and also a marked improvement for Joe.

Good to see I'm not alone

I was on the bandwagon last year for him replacing Jones, but I think I'm on the Jernigan bandwagon now as far as defensive lineman go

4000 yds and 28/12 is still pretty good, even in todays pass happy era. We're talking about those stats like they're mediocre. They're not.

4k yards would have been 10th last year.

28 TDs would have been 8th.

12 INT's would have been 15th/16th.

I want more from Flacco. And yes, didn't think I needed to be obvious like this, but team performance trumps all.

I will hop on the Brandon Williams bandwagon as well.

Also hopping on the Urban bandwagon although I don't know how effective he will be this year. More a future thing

I'm not starting this bandwagon, but Jimmy Smith. I have driven his bandwagon since before he got to Baltimore. I was thrilled to have him here and never lost faith

Well if I didn't know what the teams record would be, but you told me Joe would be 10th in yards, 8th in TDs and had only 12 picks, I would be pretty pleased.

I've had my eyes on Brandon Williams and Kapron Lewis Moore for a while now but it seems like they are huge faves now. I'm going to go with Ryan Jensen who I think is the next Marshal Yanda and Asa Jackson who I believe can be a great playmaker.
