[News] What You Missed vs. Oakland Raiders

[BR News]

Ravens got creative to jump-start the run game. Defense tackle Michael Pierce got a chance as a lead blocker. Steve Smith can make a difference even without the football.

What I missed most was seeing the game.
Washington and Cleveland were shown where I live.

These articles are still very enjoyable.

The real bad thing is that the O misses him too...

Badly.

I live in Florida and listen to Sirius radio with my iPad following the boards and waiting for highlights.

SSR seemed the only one with fire on sunday,total shame we couldn't get 10 more yards against the worst defense in football,it was sad.

Really mind-boggling about not getting the 10 yards is the fact that we threw the ball 4 times, despite West averaging 5 yards per run and still plenty of time left on the clock.

Trestman's playcalling was OK early in the second half, yet he went with another one of his brain farts when the game was on the line. Wee would be better of with random generator picking our offensive plays than Trestman.

I missed Tucker kicking another game winner.

Sad thing on the pass to Aiken to end the last drive, Steve was open down the sidelines for 10 yards or more.

Exactly. They should've ran the ball with west on third down and tried to catch them offguard. The way he was running he could've easily busted one open or atleast gotten us a 4th  and manageable or given Tucker a shot from 63 or so. I really blame Moore for that drop though. BC if he catches that we get atleast 8 yards...then we probably do run on third down. Either we get the first and extend the drive or send Tucker out from 60. Moore cost us that game. But the playcalling was certaintly questionable. Plus the ball that hit Aiken right in the chest. Players that make that much money need to make that play regardless.

I was hoping to see this also on  things we missed. Probably just would've made this taste in my mouth even worse though.

I absolutely hate losing that way, with victory and a 4-0 start literally 8-10 yards away.

The holding call on Zutta was a little ticky tacky. Refs have too much power over the game these days. Unless it is really blatant, they should let these guys play.

I saw that too. Joe never looked his way. He made up his mind he was throwing to Aiken.
