Week 6 - Baltimore Ravens (3-2) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-4)

[Ravenslifer]

Makes zero sense - if you're not going to let Flacco go for 6 and instead run in 3 straight times, at least pull him out so he doesn't risk an injury.

[Sir Spooky]

Tyrod is coming in next series

[PoeDinkum]

Louis Murphy, but he's being asked to play four different positions in a very complex coverage schemed defense

LOL. Thanks, man. I hadn't even noticed that ol' Yo had retired!

[hn68wb4]

I'm sorry but i just don't understand why they continue to run Pierce when both Forsett and LT have been running better all season, Pierce is literally averaging 2.1 per carry, thats as terrible as it gets, forsett is averaging 7.9...

[Zeus]

Why are we running on 3rd and 6?

Look at the score

[ravensdfan]

Why do we play so conservatively every time we have such a big lead? Why allow the other team to come back at all? Don't get it...

 

This is why Flacco will never put up the stats the F.H.C. use to discredit him. This is what we do. Never play the entire game.

KB big 4th down conversion

i said that at the end of the second half

[ludy51]

ugh. 4 tds in 1 qtr and we cant do enough to let flacco have the record.

[The Raven]

Why are we blaming Pees when the players blew coverages? Jimmy allowed a big gain to LOUIS MURPHY. Mosley forgot to get to his zone and let Evans score a TD. The players are screwing up.

[reed20]

No one is over reacting, this has been a consistent problem since pees gor here. Now that the offense has pulled more than their weight, what's pees excuse today?

We can go back to obliterating this team on both sides if we really wanted to. You realize this right?

 

Any negativity at all in a blowout like this is overreacting. Eventually the sun shines on a dogs butt once in a while and something will work.

[Crabcakes&Football]

Defense at least end this game on a high note. Unless you want this poor 2nd half performance to carry over.

[52520Andrew]

Look at the score

Still at least try to get the first. Might as well have taken a knee.

[hn68wb4]

We can forget about another TD unless Forsett has a long run.

impossible, they are stubbornly giving it to Pierce even though he isn't playing well at all

[Moderator 2]

JT good!

Oh I don't know - because when we had aggressive play calling they did well - then Pees went to prevent? Could that be why?

[Ravensfan23]

Kelvin Benjamin comes up big on 4th down for Panthers. Wanted him bad, but i'm extremely happy with CJ.

[A Fish Called Yanda]

I'm ready for a new defensive coordinator.

because he's started playing soft. When pressure kept them to something like 3 first downs in the first half

I think the players are just done with the game

[PoeDinkum]

This is only a 3 score lead. An interception or two and we could be in trouble

Shhh...it's okay...there, there, we got this.

[berad]

Take Suggs out, he's not even putting in the effort. Let guys who want to play go

[The Raven]

Those are BS excuses for players blowing easy assignments.

[arnie_uk]

Shhh...it's okay...there, there, we got this.

if we had a more reliable defense I'd believe that. Moving forward I'm legitimately concerned about our defense

[ludy51]

we have to cover these curl routs!

[ravensdfan]

I think the players are just done with the game

 

Yes because the players are the ones who decided to go back to only rushing 4.

 

smh

[hn68wb4]

Yup, lots of folks on here were talkin' about J. Smith being a bust too the first two years. Elam's been asked to do things that don't play to his strengths and he is NEVER gonna win a 1-1 battle with the speed of Yo (really that's a name now?) Murphy regardless of how many teams that guy has played for.

"Yo Murphy"?.....Louis Murphy?

No doubt, especially when LT needs the experience and ya never know when BP incurs a) thigh injury shoulder injury c) head injury d) all of the above.

[MTRavensFan]

me, too. I think you and I were the only ones who wanted Kelvin.

[PurpleLady90]

i want us to play like a top 3 defense! cmon!
