How bad is Stanley's and Yanda's injuries? anyone hear anything or is this another Perriman thing going on here and in a couple weeks they go on IR?

Stanley has been practicing for a week and a half

[OUravensfan]

Of course Chris Moore didn't make the play either, he sucks too

Flacco apologists are sickening. The line sucks, but if you look at the stats he has been hit fewer per dropback than most NFL QBs. The guy has been flat out terrible this season and people want to just make excuses for him. 

 

All of his stats are atrocious and he's not been hit nearly as often as you apologists make it out to seem. 

 

Both Fitz and Smith were hit as much (and more) and found ways to make plays when they needed to. Joe has consistently shown that he is not that QB this year. 

 

Ive always been a "if we can make it to January I like to have Joe on my squad" guy. Now he's an abysmal QB that gives us no chance to compete in our division.  

How is he on snaps per pressure?

[JO_75]

Before, I think it was safe to say that regardless of how the team did the players always fought hard for Harbs. They continued to fight throughout all last year, and even this year they are fighting and very competitive. I love that our players haven't stopped fighting for Harbaugh but we are getting to the point of that happening shortly. 

Coaching ever since the Super Bowl 2012 has seen the same mistakes over and over, year in and year out, every single game. I know injuries have killed us but coaching is killing us just as bad. 

Billick was fired after 9 years, this is Harbaugh's ninth season.Now the question becomes do we turn it over to Frazier as interim HC for the rest of the season and get a head start on the coaching search or let Harbaugh play out the year then fire him on Black Monday?

[RayRayRaven]

well I think the schedule gets tougher now, but we are still in it for the division big ben is out for a long time. we have to beat Pittsburgh and cincy

[jdynamite]

The good: The Walking Dead returns in a few hours.  Ummm Bye Week for Ravens too. 

The Bad: Overall effort and heart

the ugly : 3-0 start essentially ruined any chance of us landing Top 5 in 2017 draft.

Thank you for the info. I am just wondering why he was not playing with a week and a half of practice.

Yeah, he's our first round pick in pretty much his rookie year and is #3 on the depth chart, #4 when Smith is healthy. You're just being extremely ridiculous.

Maybe he's #3 because he's garbage. Be honest with yourself. I bet there were Raider fans that defended Russell through his first slew of games but the guys that knew what they were talking about knew exactly what a bust he was about to be claimed.

That quote can be used for the last month. 4 games 1 game a week thats SAD!!!

[jboy19]

I am starting to think that Flacco's shoulder should have kept him out. Was playing good in the first half, but that second half was the most horrendous Ive seen this offense look.

This is just a bad team as it's currently constructed.  I know we're dealing with a lot of injuries, but it's still just ugly week after week.  The offense needs a serious overhaul.

It was ugly before the injuries

I don't know but 9 years in the nfl is a long time i like harb but if the season goes like last year it would be time I think

Overly cautious coaches, figured they'd wait until he was unquestionably 100% after the bye

[GrimCoconut]

I'm sick of this team losing. I like Flacco and the OL is a problem because Zuttah looked terrible today but the OL doesn't make you throw 2 INT and it doesn't make you throw the ball poorly. His WR aren't playing well, but Flacco is even not throwing well to Pitta and that's strange. Flacco needs to get his act together or honestly we should bench him to get him to chill out because he's also letting the bad OL get to him. He's not the only one to blame because Perriman needs to man up and learn to run a route and also needs to learn to secure the catch. There's a lot wrong with this team and it's pissing me off now. 

[rthibault39]

I honestly cannot believe I am saying this but I believe the Ravens may need to move on from Joe Flacco. This offense has been sluggish for the last two years. Marc Trestman was fired, and nothing has changed. I guess Marc wasn't really the problem. I understand the O-line is banged up, I understand that receivers may be having problems getting open, but come on. There are zero passing touchdowns in the last two games. The offense has no energy and no creativity. I get tired of gearing up for the game and having a heart attack in every game. Joe is my guy, I was really happy when we picked him up but I am seeing that may have been the wrong pick after all. He played great when Ray Lewis was there, getting the team fired up. He could sit in the background and play quarterback. Now he has to be in the lime light. He has to be the front runner and lead the team. He just isn't doing it. He is proving he is not worth the 22 million he is making each year. A 22 million dollar quarterback can will his team to victory. Look at Philip Rivers, he and the Chargers can score any time they want and he is constantly losing line man around him. He just keeps playing and they keep scoring. The team goes as Joe goes and he needs to bring more emotion to the team. It is boring to watch this team play. Everyone knows what we are doing on offense and they aren't scared of us. When are we going to see the REAL BALTIMORE RAVENS TEAM that we have been expecting to see.

[aarondmonroe]

Can anyone say.... High Draft Pick............................3, 4, or 5..........

[Ravenseconbeast]

You put the ball on flaccos hand and everything turns to waste.  Its a JOKE he is anything more than a journeyman QB. 

Force him to shrink his crappy talent along with his salary to half like webb or he needs to be sent out to abother team and evaluate how he'll really perform.  

He will be a complete garbage heap of junk

lol ok, whatever buddy. He's the only player that's every played that wasn't amazing his rookie year, every that "knows what their talking about" gives up on players after 7 games, keep thinking that.

Btw maybe people need to realize the AFC North also isn't very good this year? Look at the entire division.

It's doing that to a lot of people now.

 

[Wildwest Raven]

This is why I don't believe the hype fed to us during training camp...there's no pressure. Ya gotta show me on the field. ..I couldn't wait for the season to start, now it looks like a slow death to the end. Maybe after the bye week we get better..Hey people win the lottery.

[aarondmonroe]

We have the highest bench payroll with

S. Smith

T Suggs

E Dumervill

and the 15 others that get hurt and can,t play..............................

Depending on who dies, not sure TWD is good lol But I'll be watching!

Watching this game I just feel that they gave Flacco enough cortizone to make his shoulder feel good and it wore off. Plus he was getting pressured so much he began to see ghosts. He shouldn't have started this game and definitely should have been sat before the 4th quarter began. That is poor coaching. I mean, we want to wait so Stanley doesn't get more injured so we keep him out but we throw our QB to the wolves knowing our O line is garbage? Poor, poor coaching. You want Flacco gone? Guarantee there are still a ton of teams that will give up the world for him. And if this O line hasn't ruined his confidence for good, he'll have tremendous success. Then who do you want fired?

 

[OUravensfan]

To channel my inner OBj, football just isn't fun right now, it really isn't.

At least OSU lost

I just.......................don't get it. I will always support this team, but this close losses just gets me even more fed up. I'm close of throwing in the towel. 

If it's Flacco throwing it it will be incomplete or to the other team.

[HazDaGeneral]

IDC what people say with this season can be salvaged......ITS OVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.......this off-season changes need to be made thats beyond player personnel, it needs to be changes with the coaches and front office

[ravensfan520]

My opinion is that we have over spent on a franchise qb that has can not show consistency.  We rolled the dice thinking he could come back after the knee surgery and it looks like he is worse and I don't know if he will ever get what he did have back.  I am okay wit cutting or trading him and taking the dead money to rebuild. We have talent but haven't used it correctly. It's time to build the team up in the trenches and get back to smash mouth football. Draft a game manager at qb in the late rounds like Dallas did with Prescott or Seattle with wilson and hope to get lucky.

[ravefan52]

So many things wrong. As bad as Flacco is doing we're stuck with him. 

A change from Ozzie and Decosta is needed and that's the first time I've ever said that
