I'm just worried about Flacco since he's been nothing but a liability the last 4 YEARS. If Joe's dumb mistakes continue I hope he gets benched so that maybe it'll ignite a spark in our QB. Seems crazy to be talking this way about a SB winning "Elite QB".

Fixed it for ya'.

They call me a Troll because I told it like it is Mallet needs to start because Ozzie and Co are not enjoying the fruit of their labor watching Joe throw our season away! He is gonna get Harbs fired and some people got the audacity to mention Ozzie leaving and I know they trippin big time! If Mallet starts it will be the same exact situation like in Dallas! I hardly ever visit my profile but I see it's getting alot of attention I'm from Cleveland Ohio and I Love the Ravens! I watch my Ravens at a sports bar here with squeelers Browns bills patriots and cowboys OK?! Sincerely The Troll Lol! Mallet saved me last time will Joe?!

Mallet saved you last time? What has he even done in the NFL?

Not enjoying the fruits of their labor because Joe is throwing away the season....REALY?!?!?!?!?

First, they drafted Stanley as the future anchor of the line at LT - he's been out with an injury - has nothing to do with Flacco.

Second, all of the other injuries to the OL have nothing to do with Flacco.

Third, Smith Sr, our #1 receiver, has been out with an ankle injury - has nothing to do with Flacco

Fourth, yet again, fired an Offensive Coordinator for lack of play calling - not Flacco's fault.

Fifth, Suggs injury, Dumervils' injury have nothing to do with Flacco.

Sixth, lack of pass rush and corners that can actually cover and tackle - again, nothing to do with Flacco.

Yes, Flacco has not been playing spectacular; that said the ENTIRE TEAM HAS NOT BEEN PLAYING SPECTACULAR.

It's not just #5 - there are 53 players that suit up on Sunday - 11 on offense, 11 on defense and 11 on special teams and not a single grouping has done anything spectacular this season. Offense failing to score, defense giving up HUGE TD plays in the 4th quarter and special teams missing tackles giving up returns.

Is it just me, or does Harbaugh seem more irritated than normal during the press conference? It makes me wonder if Biscotti had something for him during the bye week about his expectations.

Def not just you. I noticed the same thing!! And I also thought the same thing that Biscotti had a conversation with him that did not go so well.

[johnnypurple]

I've watched a ton of Harbs pressers and I've NEVER seen him like this before....looks like a depressed broken man.

[whobilly]

The division winner will be the only team making the playoffs this year from the AFC North. Do you think this Ravens team is capable of winning 10 games?
I see 8-8 at best.

9 games could win the division this year. esp if we can win our division games. There's a long road ahead of us but it is possible. We have 4 of the next 5 games at home, for us to have any chance we need to go 4-1 in the next 5 games. i still have hope unfortunately lol

Harbs looks like a man carrying a heavy burden that comes with losing. There are no quick fixes, no faith saving miracles coming. It's on the team! The players executing, playing well and the coaches putting them in the best situation to succeed are the only things that will turn this season around.

He's had one losing season in his head coaching career. It's going to take a lot more than that to break him. I mean, Marvin Lewis is still smiling.

Think about that. Marvin Lewis without ONE playoff win in 15 years and we are talking about Harbs being on the hot seat.

Coleman usually gets a laugh or something out of him and he went all Bellicheat with the line about trying to win a game. I kinda hope his seat is heating up. I like Joe and I like Harbaugh, they have been winners but this last season and half has been horrible. I do hope his seat is heating up, but I am not ready to call for his job or to let Joe go. That o line combined with his recovering knee are what I think is causing Joe to be more of bad Joe than good Joe so far this season. On a side note, I bet he was invited to the world series game, but it wouldnt have been a good look to his bosses to be out watching baseball when they are on a 4 game skid and have the steelers coming up.

Yes I believe that's why he did not attend that game lol. And yes I agree I hope that his seat is warming. I can't say that Harbaugh gives me the warm and fuzzies anymore. Ever since the superbowl purge he has been making so many questionable decisions with assistant coach hires, clock management, roster moves, joe, etc....I think he's been way too comfortable and for the first time we are seeing a very UNCOMFORTABLE John lol

As he should because he is halfway responsible for what we are seeing on Sundays. The other party responsible is Ozzie.

If Mallet was that good he would be starting somewhere even Cleveland

How did you feel when Mallet beat the squeelers in a Ravens uniform? ! Simple question!

i felt great when tony banks and kyle boller won games. even the great chris redman won a game. mallett is a quality backup and glad we have him but he is no savior. i will say it is time for the fo to draft a qb to develop but flacco has quality years left and they will turn it around but it will have to be a complete team effort to make it happen and it would be nice if the injuries gave the team a break

[RavenSwag]

Hopefully the turnaround will start this Sunday and the Squeelers aren't taking us seriously. Remember what happened last year.

I'm sure you won't let Harbaugh forget it either. The fans have been brutal and quite frankly over-the-top over these losses. Stop the griping and start cheering. The team needs all the support it can get. I know what is expected and they haven't delivered but all this garbage doesn't help the situation. Although I'm sure some fans are enjoying the bashing.

[RavenLunatic]

I 'd rather the Ravens hone in on getting things right with themselves before they worry about anything else.

Exactly.

On top of that,

Flacco LED the Ravens to the game winning TD against the Raiders - the D blew it. He then LED the Ravens back for the game winning FG - Aiken dropped it.

Flacco LED the Ravens to the game winning TD against the Giants - the D blew it.

Flacco LED the Ravens to the game winning TD against the Skins - Perriman didn't get his feet down (WR 101) & then Wallace dropped the next pass.

Yes, he's made some bad throws but it's not like he's losing games by himself.

[Crusader]

Brian B accepted this was defensive team and ran with it. John H trying to force a square peg in a round hole trying to make this a offensive team.

[MTRavensFan]

The league has changed. Nobody survives without offense anymore.

[bigcatfrank1]

The division winner will be the only team making the playoffs this year from the AFC North. Do you think this Ravens team is capable of winning 10 games?
I see 8-8 at best.

If they can win the next 2 games then 10 would be a great target. Get the division win and pick up a speedy CB in a late trade deal. This team could do damage if ALL / every player plays to their fullest potential.

reality, right now i dont think they do much better than 7-9... sorry

[picke]

Generally speaking. when the team is doing well, the QB gets more credit than he deserves. And when things are going badly for the team, he gets more blame than he deserves.

Yes, this 3-4 underachieving team deserves equal opportunity blame. But don't just mention the offense, defense and special teams. Coaching has been culpable, too. There isn't a single dimension of this team that doesn't deserve critical comment.

I can't think of a better time to collectively step up our game than against the Steelers! Go Ravens!!

Well put the games away then and help the Defense for once since it carried this team since 96! No defense is stopping no one Dallas defense gave up 30 pts so the Offense got 32! Just exemplifing but depending on the Defense to hold teams back is no excuse! Run up the score he got paid the the money so earn it!
