Week 11 - Baltimore Ravens at Dallas Cowboys

[Militant X 1]

The offenses, 1st TD drive was fast paced and crisp.  Then...NOTHING!  They disappeared!  Then out of nowhere after being down 14 pts...they come out fast paced and crisp again for a TD.

Question....

IF your offense is clicking with this "fast paced and crisp" mindset and productivity...WHY STOP???/

Dak Prescott doesn't play or look like a rookie. 

Bull. He looked every bit a rookie first half when we were getting pressure. Here's the thing though - Dallas has coordinators who actually make adjustments. We have Pees. Oh it's not working - oh well, keep at it boys, no need to try anything different.

Is this defense the best since 2000? Shook my head when I read that headline. Now it is a flipping joke. We will never be anything as long as Pees is here. The man has 4 man rush, 3 man rush or obvious all out blitz. No creativity. For some reason thinks you must give cushions of infinity and play lie down football within 2 mins and the 4th quarter. Even when we're losing!
Doesn't send a blitz until they're in the red zone then has people giving 10 yd cushions in man coverage.

The loss is a loss. Dallas is a good team. But we've got actual talent on this defense and it is wasted with this DC.

Offense: Marty - newsflash: Pitta cannot block! Further more, you do NOT have to run on every first down.

That article was stupid lol. Best D since 00 was the 06-07 D. .

That's crap.  The D can't get off the field.  We've only had the ball 3 times this half and scored with one of those.

Great observation; ugly stat.

[RavensFanInCA]

C'mon Cowboys, go for it on 4th down. You know you want to...

[chunkywill25]

He was way down

[ratedr]

Crap offense first half.

Crap offense and crap defense second half.

[cnyravens]

Good effort but overmatched!

1) Even with Jimmy Smith our secondary besides Weddle blows. Webb needs to go

and a CB a priority.

2) Upgrade at Center. Every time I watch Zuttah he is horrible. His penalties were a turning point.

3) Not sure about Flacco any more. He looks real gun shy back there.

[NCRaven94]

Whoever the punter is for Dallas made easy money today.

[drillem]

If they do somehow win the div, someone will have to go and wake up flacco and tell him to get ready.

Block it

Normally, I'd disagree on the Pees thing but those constant 3 man rushes were PITIFUL!!

[JO_75]

Please Block this!!!!!

[A Fish Called Yanda]

Never going to win when you let your opponent score on 5 possessions in a row to end the game.

[RavensRegime]

block it, somebody please

[Zeus]

Haaaaa and we lost to the jets this year

Why did we call a time-out? (the one after Elliot stepped out)

I had the same question. We rarely use the clock well. OK, we never use the clock well

You can't put a 5'8 receiver in press against 6'0 + receivers. There is a reason he has it like that. Cornerbacks like talib who use this are able to read and react faster. Our corners just make him look stupid. 

Have you watched this D since Pees has been there that is what he does. It isn't the CBs it's the DC

[Edug27]

Man Zeke is special. Never gives up, never loses yards, always keeps them legs moving. 

[jdynamite]

This game could be so different if it wasn't for so many idiotic drive killing penalties. 

Common theme in all or losses!

They could have saved him a few fractures if they'd played like this.

Their coaches completely out coached us in the second half

When SSR goes we need to bring in a veteran WR that plays tough like SSR/Boldin. Draft a WR. Center. CB. have a decent amount of needs

[kennethyamini1989]

I said it weeks ago, and I'll say it again. Dak Prescott> Joe Flacco. 

[reed20]

Pretty much game

How can we contain them early on and then just break after half time. Doesn't make since too me.

Usually doesn't have to take until halftime. A lot of time its after we score our first TD, or the first quarter - whichever comes first.   

[drillem]

will this be the beginning of another streak (losing)

We could do with drafting basically every position, which is unfortunate because we don't have much cap room next year to bring in any FAs to fill the holes.

Or multiple 5 or 6 man rushes with various different personnel, which we did today. Can't wait to the film session. Lot of fans are getting undressed for what they don't know and don't understand.

We did no such thing after the half. We gave up in the last 2 mins of the half - played Pees oh let them score usual crap - and then 2nd half did nothing of the kind.
