[News] Marshal Yanda Proved His Toughness Again In Switch To Left Guard

[BR News]

The Ravens Pro Bowler came up with the idea to move across the offensive line for his first start at left guard since high school. The move helps him be stronger and protect the injury to his left shoulder.

my top 3 favorite Ravens:
1. Yanda 2. Lewis 3. Suggs

And this is partially why he needs another Pro-Bowl nod and a spot in the Ravens RIng of Honor. Maybe even the Hall of Fame.

How can this guy not voted in for HOF? he has a SB ring and numerous probow selections and top 3 guards in the league ever since. The guy is the beast of the beasts.....It'll be just hard to find another guard like Yanda......greatly respected!

KO looked good for the Raiders last night. He would look even better if he was still in a Ravens uniform. Wonder which uniform Brandon Williams will be in next year?

I think he'll get in. He is a positive player and person all the time,they gotta know this by now. Just saying the NFL and players know he should be a HOFer.

Yanda looked good on the left side .. when I first saw him there, I had no idea it was a strategic move due to his shoulder injury. Seems to make sense and, given his level of experience, he's the kind of guy that can do anything you ask of him on the o line. The O line wasn't awesome, but they functioned about as well as we've seem them all year. Barring further injury, I'm wondering if that's the configuration we'll be seeing from here on out. 

The thing that has disturbed me the most about the O line is how little trust we now seem to have in Urschel and Jensen. When we let KO go, we knew we're going to have a downgrade at LG, but wow. I really thought Jensen was going to step in but, he's been really sketchy. I thought with Lewis down, Urshel would get his shot, but the fact that they went with Ducasse - a guy who I thought was on the margins of the roster has jumped ahead. 

Zuttah hasn't been inspiring, but apparently isn't being pushed for the starting job by either of these guys. I'm sure we'd like to save some cap space by letting him go this offseason, but right now, I don't see who is going to fill that vacancy.

That was a awesome move for Yanda to come up with and to be honest, he looks like he belongs there. Good job! Tough Dude!!!

In this era of me (and $) first, who in the world does this??
To:
1) - Play hurt
2) - switch positions while hurt
3) - ask the coach to do so for the benefit of the team

True meaning of a team player - way to go Yanda!!
