[News] Game Recap: 49ers 25, Ravens 20

[rayvens5252]

Flacco is not good

[stixfix69]

Might as well throw in Tray Walker and let him start getting some serious real game experience...Brooks if he can play can get valuable experience at FS now....The young Front line continues to look better every game, as far as Jernigan, Davis, Williams, and Guy....Just go ahead and unleash the young CB's and let them learn from getting PT....

Guys remember when we had Ray Lewis, and Ed Reed, and Boldin and Torrey, and Pitta and Suggs and we won a Superbowl. If only for a second, it felt nice to be nostalgic about the past Every team has a bad year. I can't blame our fan reactions because we're not used to this feeling. I guess we try to get through every week, hope there are big changes during the season (and offseason) and look forward to next year

Nostalgia is a consolation prize for losers. Yes, I am that bitter.

[coreyadams]

Is it still preseason? Let me know when the season starts.

[OLD SCHOOL SMASH BALL]

Yes my friends, we are LOSERS once again...the SOFT ZONE D did not dissapoint, showed up once again, as did the stupid picks, and the stupid penalties, and the dropped td's....if it weren't for Tucker, we would be losing by larger margins

[drillem]

The one pass Flacco made over the heads of everyone shows how bad he is at throwing accurate interceptions:)) What he was throwing at is anyone's guess. He can be so good at times and so bad at other times it's like he's scitzophrenic. When he connects on one of those long passes way down the field you can't help but admire him. Then he throws a bomb that is intercepted due to poor choices. Lack of concentration at times seems to plague Joe even after all these years.

[mendii]

Flacco is not good

I don't agree, but man it looks like he has forgotten how to read defenses or something. That first interception was the worst place to throw the ball, Gillmore was wide open in the flat. On the second he threw it to literally nobody except the defender. He was constantly throwing to men who were in double coverage, and if he wasn't the receivers either did him no favors or he straight up overthrew them. Run game looks back on track though, let's go back to the Jamal Lewis-era offense lol

I hear you. I'm bitter too but I don't time and energy to stay in a bad mood and have no power over the ravens personnel so

[RavenManiac#7]

12 and 4, 12 and 4, 12 and 4 .... ... 11 and 5, 11 and 5, 11 and 5

After what I saw today……………..1 and 15????  So sad.

[JamesA119]

I don't mind losing seasons here and there - hey, they're bound to happen - I just hate that Steve Smith Sr. has to go out retiring on one. Especially after spending all those years losing in Carolina. Should have been a Raven from day 1. No one deserves a Super Bowl win more than SSS. Sigh.

Yeah, right? Look at this guy, 36 years, playing with broken bones and still being one of the top wide receivers on the league, and certainly our MVP alongside Yanda."

He is the only one that resembles a Raven. How far has the mighty fallen!

[Old School Smash Mouth FB]

As bad as J. Smith and S. Wright were tonight, Flacco was worse. Flacco has not looked good since he got the big contract. I am beginning to believe the outstanding players around him several years ago made him look a lot better than he actualy is. His mediocrity is becoming more apparent with each passing game. I am ready to start Schaub.

[stixfix69]

If we go 2-14, just make sure our 2nd win is against Pit, at this point that's all that matters....

[rayvens5252]

mendii it sounds like you agree with me in your comment

[stixfix69]

In fairness to Flacco, i was never high on Trestman, and i'm certainly not high on Pees....Watching the Colts game, Pags is in his last year of his contract, hope they fire him so we can get a real DC in the house......

[mendii]

I hear you. I'm bitter too but I don't time and energy to stay in a bad mood and have no power over the ravens personnel so

You have the right attitude, I'm just gonna sulk for a while... it takes energy for me to not be mopey and I wasted all my energy grumbling at my television lol. 

[mendii]

mendii it sounds like you agree with me in your comment

he's off, he's not bad. Brandon Weeden is bad, Joe Flacco is having a bad year. 

[coreyadams]

Do we have to play Monday Night? Please help us.

[OzzieBisciotti]

We can blame the coaches, the players, etc.. for these losses, but we also have to blame the front office for not addressing the cornerback and wide receiver position at all- we should've at least kept either Torrey or Jacoby, but Oz let both of them walk - for what? For a 36 old player, SSS, who is good but also one that is gone at the end of the year. I'm sick of this rent a receiver bs- how is flacco ever going to have that chemistry that Brady and Gronk have? Also, time management, as everyone saw, is also a huge problem- every year. Harbaugh needs to stop complaining all the time, and stop looking like he's going to cry, and just man up and stop challenging pointless calls unless they are truly questionable- this loss is also on Harbs as he called two dumb timeouts duringthe second half. This team definitely needs leadership from someone, I don't know if it's the players or the coaches, but again, Oz didn't address our crappy secondary and he can't draft WRs so I also blame this on him as well.

[drillem]

You don't think Ozzie is losing it do you?

[bmoraven]

Hard to watch 2 EX Ravens beat us today. We didn't make Kaepernick look like Montana, their OC called a balanced run/pass game and Tressman didn't and They Have 2 WR's and we only have 1.

[OzzieBisciotti]

Flacco obviously isn't elite, but he's a very good quarterback- the problem is that Oz doesn't give him any weapons- he was fine when we had Boldin, Torrey, etc.. The problem is Oz and not usually drafting high enough for a receiver- and then not keeping our own productive, young receivers - and the ones that are our own and are productive are rare because Oz can't draft WRs. Perriman who? Come on' man

[WordProphet]

This is what happens when you give away or cut your Superbowl winning team and then trying to save some money pick, the cheapest players you can get who are more than soft and stay hurt or never play a regular season game, who is this with Perriman that people think is a savior and they are probably wrong about that too, this makes no sense, for terrible decisions make terrible outcomes and we have had some terrible outcomes for we are now 1 and 5!!! My question now is how do you stop this losing or can you!!!

[stixfix69]

Well....We couldn't afford T.Smith, and no one expected Perriman to be out, as he did dominate OTA's and mini camp prior to this messed up injury he has....If we had the cap space we would still have T.Smith McPhee, and Ngata, but as you can see now we have like 1.9 mil in cap space, and it will go down if Lewis is done for the year, and we have to sign another player.....

[ravens4life86]

Im officially done for the year. I was still on board at 1-4 but 1-5 I dont believe any team in history ever made playoffs...and Im not putting my faith in this team.

To much garbage... So is obviously frustrated because hes playing with Garbage players. He wont say it be ause hes a

franchise QB.. But his play on the field shows... Hes doing to much and just going through the motions because hes got garbage all around him. Flacco and Smith sr cant carry you for 16 games. Its nice to see 198 yrds from Boldin and Torrey..two guys you should still be on this team...and the Ravens would be 4-2 or 5-1...cause they would have legit weapons outside SR!

Anyway..Im done with analyzing this teams problems.. I will say they had less penalties today so thst was good.

But look forward to 20 million in dead money off the cap next year, restructure Flacco to a team friendly deal, top 10 pick probably and address WRs holes and Pass Rush needs.. Get back to Superbowl Contender

Has not looked good since the big contract? Worst than J. Smith? Put the beer down and take two steps away from the keyboard. He had a career year just last season. Kubiak  better Trestman and a deep threat in Torrey. Joe is not elite like Rodgers or Brady and every season he has 2-3 stinkers. However, he has the worst receiver corps in the league and a new OC just about every year. He's not good enough to be the guy that carries the team, but he is the Ravens best shot at being a competitive team in the foreseeable future.

[drillem]

I don't think you can stop the losing at this point. Once a team descends this far it's difficult to coach up the spirit needed to perform well. There's nothing left to play for this season. When teams get on one of these loosing binges they generally continue. Look at Houston 2 years ago, or the Colts back when Manning went down. Firing hc's usually follows. Sometimes a teams front office will see that something big has to happen and fire an hc during the season too. That could happen to Harbs. He seems non-chalant. His pressers tell the story. He has no answers. Time for new blood.

[WordProphet]

Isn't this something, we gave away players to the 49's who beat us today, and we beat the 49's with the same players when they were on our team, great decision Harbaugh and Ozzie!!!

[Fullblack_RAVEN]

The good thing about this is we don't have to see false hope articles on this site anymore! This team is what it is at this point. The ravens are an inexperienced bunch that lacks discipline, talent, good coaching and leadership. That's what this team is right now. The road to the #1 pick starts now. It's time for a reset.

[ReginaldColeman1]

The Ravens ownership has to look at all the front office personnel. No one is above the team. No one is sacred. As soon as u make someone indispensable you need to erect a statue, shake their hand and wish them good luck in retirement.

Well the Steelers got Antonio Brown in the 3rd Round. I don't want hear it's because we have drafted late. They always seem to find receivers. We have just made poor choices with our picks that did not pan out. Let's just pray they do their due diligence this year. They will have lots of time...
