Wow... I have no words

Suggs: Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Your Raven leadership will continue!

DEVASTATING!!!!

[Maryland]

Positive Spin: If we can stay in contention until Urban comes back, we will have a decent pass rush down the stretch. We can use some Za'Darius Smith on obvious passing downs (since he is terrible vs the run), and possibly sign a veteran FA such as Freeney or Babin. 

[The Negotiator]

Suggs get well, we will indeed miss you this year.

[CQ1]

3 NOTATIONS:

1. we WERE in the perfect scenario to win the game, however...

2. OUCH !

3. time to fill in for Sizzle and grow quick !

What position does Darnell docket play?

[sticks999]

why out the entire season?

[AZRaven520]

Worst way to start a season.. it would be nice to see him make a R. Lewis type comback.. bring some motivation and inspiration towards the end of the season.. ... I guess this is out of the question just saw a mods posting on why it's season ending.. used ir-dtr..

Let's go Upshaw.. time to shine..

I'm guessing all those pundits who we're picking Ravens will start doubting..

why out the entire season?

Because it takes months to heal and we already used our IR-DTR.

[AZRaven520]

What position does Darnell docket play?

On defensive line.. I think DT..

Don't you get 2?

[NCMan]

We'll miss you, Terrell. Get well!

[NCMan]

Don't you get 2?

Only one.

I just hope Terrell's fellow vets step up and fill the huge heart and soul void left by his leadership. It's not just next man up on the field but we also need other defensive leaders to step up in the locker room, in every practice, etc to continue leading and building this dominant defense. As a team, outstanding defensive performance today. Terrell best wishes in recovery and hopefully return to us next year.

Sorry to hear about T-Sizzle, I hope he will get better. Time for our fourth round guy, Za'Darius Smith to step up. Go Ravens!

[The Mom Gene]

We lost Suggs and Lewis 2012... Remember???  The year we won the Superbowl.  Our season is FAR from over....  It's just hard losing an established leader.

[Dfence4champs2052]

Courtney Upshaw should be salivating at the opportunity in a contract year to feast. heal fast Sizzle.

[The Mom Gene]

Only one.

Darn...

Courtney Upshaw should be salivating at the opportunity in a contract year to feast. heal fast Sizzle.

Absolutely

Losing Suggs just sucks....time for Upshaw to shine! GO RAVENS!

That is a good point. I could say Doom on the front and Jimmy on the back end ... but in the not too distant future, I see that being Mosely. That guy is the total package ... athletic and he plays very smart.

[balfan23]

I still don't want to write Suggs' obit now. Done for the season - I don't want to say he's done for his career. We'll let him make that decision in the off season. 

[omar586]

from T-sizzle to Z-sizzle. zadarius got step up, he can do it along with upshaw. interesting to c what Ozzie will do here.

[bmoraven]

This is a Big Deal. That kind of leadership is tough to replace. Especially late in the season. Sad for Terrell.

[cbrook1862]

Somebody call Darnell Docett

[Vitalvicious]

Ouch, that's one player we couldn't afford to lose! We lost a lifer, a leader and definitely a voice!!! Get well T Sizzle!

Just hoping Sugg's defensive vet teammates realize the magnitude of the leadership shoes they need to fill. Whether it be 1 or several, some strong leadership needs to emerge to continue the progression of what could be an extremely dominant defense. Although Mosley is only in his second year, I think he has natural leadership qualities and could be a real positive force to contribute to those vets who need to carry the torch.
