Week 1 - Baltimore Ravens vs. Cincinnati Bengals

[jdynamite]

If cut up a little earlier probably a 6 yard gain.

[ellicottraven]

Flacco threw behind Steve... still getting set I suppose

[ellicottraven]

running game needs to get going! Let's go O-line!

[Challenge Accepted]

Well then

[ellicottraven]

Man that sucks for us!

[Cville-Raven]

cmon smith

[jdynamite]

Hard hitting there. That's some football.

[ludy51]

Gotta catch that!

[Zeus]

R u kidding me smith....

[Dr. Kelley]

Great drive

[GrimCoconut]

Man, what a disappointment right there. Smith not hanging onto the ball. It wasn't perfect but those hands.

[redlobster]

4 man rush and they drop 7 and forsett gets 1-2 yards, not acceptable.

[ravensdfan]

Harbaugh needs to find out why we NEVER can come out looking sharp. Why we ALWAYS muddle through that first series on O and D.

[ellicottraven]

Wow that wasn't very comforting folks... they score and we don't respond in our House?? We need to settle down and play like we are capable of!

[Nge2grads]

Let's go Ravens.  Make the home crowd happy in a hurry!

[T3hRaven]

Gotta catch that Steve, come on man.

[BmoreBird22]

Steve Smith is known for drops historically...

[The Mom Gene]

Ok... our first drive under our belt....  Now let's get the defense going..  No 1st downs this drive...

[Gtown Purple]

missed opportunity.

[ravens rule]

We had the ball at the 5 yard line I'm not mad.

Yes so far running game against this defense is suspect

[ludy51]

Play action gives Joe all the time in the world

[GrimCoconut]

It does require lots of discipline and control from the players. All players have to execute their jobs or it breaks down

Yeah and the truth is, we hear that excuse every year for Pees. "It's the players not the coach!" Maybe it is to an extent, but there comes a time where you need to say "Enough is enough" and cut bait with a coach who doesn't seem to get the most out of his players, since that is, you know, the job of a coach. So far, from what I've seen, he isn't the right coach for us. I hope he proves me wrong this year. 

[ravensdfan]

If this defense is still doing its impression of a sieve I don't know if I can watch this game.

[PolishRifle]

Man, what a disappointment right there. Smith not hanging onto the ball. It wasn't perfect but those hands.

 

Let's not pretend like he had to make a crazy athletic play to get that. Both his hands were on that ball. It was a good tackle, but still.

[GrimCoconut]

We had the ball at the 5 yard line I'm not mad.

Thanks to Aiken and Jones. 

[ellicottraven]

No huddle makes Dalton look really good 

[ellicottraven]

Wow! Really??

[cobrajet]

Wow wide open

I prefer someone like Pagano or Rex, but nothing we can do
