Whats worse 1-6 or the 07 team 10 losses after 4-2

26 posts in this topic

We are not as bad as the 07 team because they had success, then blew it. Now we have no luck on top of a established losing streak.

07 was worse. We never  got the chance to pretend  we were good. Me and a few others were wary after a mediocre  PS performance.

Nothing worse than hope. 07 built you up. At least now if we go on a run, we know the playoffs aren't in sight.

 

Going on a run now after being statically out of the playoffs and destroying  our draft position  would be so Ravens.

I remember calling the "We will lose to the winless Dolphins" game weeks before we came to play them. 

 

And we lost to them. We were their only win for the whole season. 

 

That was a terrible season...

 

This season, it's just different. We hang close then we can't finish.

Right now since our team is more about schemes than the players talents, we can lose to anyone and can beat anyone. Hence all the close losses. But at least they are good games.

We have to be the best 1-15 team in league history lol.

I actually went to that game. I was one embarrased fan lol.

The 07 season was mind numbing.

The only highlight of that season was the game VS New England when we had them BEAT..before Rex Ryan called a time out.

This season, we aren't getting blown out at all and we've had chaneces to win each game. Our lack of talent tips the scales against us ultimately.

The 07 season was horrendous, Billick totally lost the team.

Honestly, I feel that the Ravens have a lot of promise for the future. We need to draft well and manage the cap well starting this off season. The 07 team was similar that there was a strong core there but injuries and lack of a QB killed the season.

Hmm.  So pretty everyone here is saying this season is bad because we don't have the talent.  Most also feel the offensive and defensive scheme sucks.  So then, how are we keeping it close with every team we play, including 2 undefeated teams and the Cardinals?

 

On topic, 07 was worse without question.  At 4-2,  I actually thought that season had a chance.  We couldn't even get the win over the undefeated Pats but we lost to the winless Dolphins

07 ended with a total team overhaul, don't see that happening after this season - even as bad as it may seem now

This season is worse in my mind because this team had superbowl aspirations after barely losing to NE last year and had drafted a possible play making WR, TE, and signed a slot CB and Jimmy smith was returning to fix all last years problems.

My memory is hazy, but I could have sworn 07 was McNair's last injured year and Kyle Boller and some other stiff took it over and couldn't do a thing.

 

But before we jump to the conclusion that 2007 was a worse year, lets remember we won 4 games that year.  Who can categorically state that this years team, even with Joe Flacco is going to reach that number of wins?

 

Besides we won 5 games, beating the Stoolers in week 17!

07 we were pretty bad. This year is bad but we are 1 drive away in every game from winning. They just are not good enough to win.

As hard as it was to watch the 07 Ravens this year has been just as bad. Down years will happen tho its what we do during the bad times that define us as a team and fan base.

 

 

McNair last year was 06 I believe but that 07 year had so much promise after going 13-3 losing to the Colts by field goals. My point being is just like this year we just couldnt live up to the hype.

Nah, McNair played in 07 and Billick came out in that Cincy game throwing and avoiding the running game even though we'd just signed McGahee.  He was determined to make McNair into a serious throwing threat while ignoring that McNair was already broken before the season started.  That Steelers game in week 9, I think, featured McNair having one of the worst QB performances in NFL history.

07 for sure. That year was just a nightmare that got worse each week. At least with this year, every single game we are in it until something stupid happens. Plus, I've already chalked this up as a rebuilding year after falling to 0-3, so I'm more excited to see what we are going to have in '16. '07 was just watching hopes and dreams disappear. Accepting Defeat early hurts way less than watching your SB hopes disappear across the end of the season

They are equally frustrating for me. Any trending where we are not a top team is awful for me. Especially enduring that 2007 season in Hawaii surrounded by stealer fans! Awful.......I want more lombardis for Joe and my team. I want to be in that most championships convo!

And that's what makes this season horrible to me!  Our boys aren't good enough to get the "W" in those close games.  Good teams find ways to win and our Ravens...these Ravens...are not a good team!

The season itself I believe this year is the worst and most disappointing. The 07 team I think was a worse team. We have been within one score of winning each game against really good teams this year. We have a very competitive team we just don't seem to want it enough to win. If this team had the fire and will to win that our super bowl team had we could be undefeated right now.

I feel like almost every fan had this idea roaming around in their heads before the game.

 

And then, it happened. That was a terrible day.
