I appreciate that. It was great to see too, if Flacco can play like that the rest of the year we can win the Super Bowl

Yeah, yeah, yeah!  The offense FINALLY had that big game you've been waiting for OU!  It was nice to see.  

Can we see it again next week....on the road and behind enemy lines vs the Patriots?  Now..THAT....would be a "breakout" to me!

Good: The O-Line.  Nice return to post-Bye form and giving Joe time to make throws.  Pass-catchers were hot today too.

Bad: Watching the refs pretend Pitta's knee wasn't down prior to the ball coming out.

Ugly: Watching young guys struggle due to lack of reps.  Not complaining just tough to watch at times.

Who are you thinking about? Chris Moore?

Their defense. It was much worse than Tannehill was. 

That defense totally quit in the 4th quarter also. Absolutely no pride whatsoever.

Absolutely!  

Their spirit was broke!

Ha, you read my mind.  Make no mistake though.  I'm not even close to doghousing him personally.  I still think he'll shine in due time.

'kay, yeah I hear the frustration, I'm on the same boat. I like Moore but his drop rate is ridiculous. When he gets some reliable hands and gets some confidence from coaches he's going to produce a lot.

Interesting Tweet

	Jeff Zrebiec (@jeffzrebiecsun)
12/4/16, 4:19 PM Flacco said watching Dolphins on tape, it was clear there were plays to be made behind linebackers.

Don't people routinely claim Flacco doesn't watch tape?

Which is just dumb to me since no one on this forum knows what Flacco does on his own time to prepare for a game/team.

Are we the only fanbase that gives the kicker a standing ovation when he runs onto the field for an attempt?

I think it was Cundiff or Graham said they have never seen a fan base understand the nuances of the kicking game as Baltimore lol

I agree, I am very curious to see how our defense looks next week, it won't be easy.

[Steve0x]

Look at Ravens schedule rest of way. They can possibility pick up 2 more wins Cincy and  Philly . But they really need 10 wins make playoffs

That stat is bizarre. As long as he's throwing 3-4 TD to cover that Int i'll take it. 

The Good: Flacco and the oline look to be over the injury issues. He had tons of time all day and looked like the Flacco we expected to see from the start. I personally don't even pay attention to him stepping into throws anymore. The passing game was very strong and the running game pitched in when needed. Defense looked strong and overall a great team win. 

The Bad: The turnovers. They didn't show up much in the outcome but you never want to seem them. 

The Ugly: That defender on the Dolphins celebrating after making a tackle that resulted in a 1st down and your team is losing 24-6? What's the point?

Great to see this the Ravens take advantage of a middle of the road team and showed the separation between what a top flight AFC team looks like and a team that wants to be that. 

That caught my intention too I almost wrote about it in the game thread and decided I'd rather be happy with our lead.  And also I noticed the announcer said he was undrafted player from I think Marshall. So I figured hey that guy is jump pumped he has his dream job and he's actively playing

not really. We win the division we make the playoffs. The Steelers game just became the most important game of the year. We need them to lose today.

Yea that's probably what it was, or his way of being that rah rah leader that people like to see when you're losing. I just think it's one of those look at me moments, when though my team is losing. Maybe if it were a sack or turnover I wouldn't have noticed, but the play resulted in a 1st down. The RB chirping at Orr for shrugging off his tackle was just as bad. Like bro, you're losing and you gained no yards on the play, how can you flex? lol

All 4 of our final games are very winnable, Cincy and Philly are the obvious ones, but we always play NE and Pitt close and in December Flacco is deadly. Unlike last time we played NE we have a legit #2 CB and 2 safeties playing very well, if we can do to them what we did offensively in the 2014 playoffs then this'll be a W. And we've beaten Pitt 5 times in a row now, game that we can win definitely. 

But this isn't really the thread to discuss this in.

We have to beat Pittsburgh on Christmas  in order to secure the division. The Ravens kinda basically have to win the next three games. If they lose to New England then they gonna have to win the last three games after that. A Steelers lost will help.

The Good: Flacco had a very impressive game he was on the money early and often! I can't say enough how happy it makes me to see WRs hit in stride, so they have a chance to gain YAC.   Pitta had his best game since the game in first couple of weeks. 

Rookies making it happen: Stanley had a good game up front, when he goes unnoticed then he's doing something right! Dixon continues to look better with each passing week! Tavon young man I love that kid! Judon is seeing more action weekly and he's finding ways to impact the game. M.Pierce continues to play strong. 

The bad: tackling on Ajayi, some of the guys had had technique on tackling but I think Ajayi showed that he also had a lot to do with those tackles being missed.  

Mike Wallace has made plenty of plays this season but he should have gave more effort on that Flacco INT. 

The ugly: the pitta fumble, seemed like most of our players reacted like it he was down already, while the dolphins played to whistle.   And we still working on eliminating senseless penalties. 

 

Overall great game, kind of felt like that Tampa bay game couple years ago but we didn't score as much. 

[hen826957]

I wish we would've beaten the Jets because that would've gave us a good spot. 

[hn68wb4]

I've just figured out another great: with today's game Orr's 13 tackles put him over 100 for the season, he's currently at 112

Edited December 4, 2016 by hn68wb4

[jazz1988]

That was a great game which all I can say right now .

[iceripper]

Good: finally playing 60min of football on all 3 phases. I like those slants and crossing routes. we have to abuse them with the likes of Wallace and Perriman.

Also Judon is more than a pure pass rusher, he sets the edge better than zadarius.

ugly. missed tackles. but I like how our cbs know how to tackle. 

 per Zrebiec:

Mornhinweg and Flacco got after each other a bit in meeting this week. Marty wasn't happy with Flacco's conservative comments.

Joe Looks like he found his mojo there is no stoping him

Better yet are we the only Team that offers our Kicker's jersey for sale & the fanbase exactly Buys It! #InTuckerWeTrust

[Doc]

The Good: The Team,The Team,the team

The Bad: Dennis Pitta losing the Ball... lol

The Ugly: The Dolphins... at least today

[OLD SCHOOL SMASH BALL]

The good- The Offense

The Bad- Missed tackles, Oline penalties on 62, Pitta fumble, Flacco pick

 

The ugly- Dolphins locker room after the game, and even uglier - Their film study of this game on Monday

[Rav'n Maniac]

Just got home from the game. What a blast I had today. Can't say enough about the performance we saw, the team was killing it and the Bank was rocking.

[ravens rule]

Jerraud Powers has been an underrated signing imo. It keeps Wright on the bench where he belongs.

[RavensFan34950]

The good: the Offensive Line play/ Perriman and Pitta ( minus the fumble) / and the Safety play.

The bad: not much really. I guess the tackling on Ajayi could have been better.

The ugly: the baltimore crowd at M&T bank stadium. Why were they so quiet today?

I think you might need a hearing test.  The fans were absolutley rocking it today.

[Raven'evermore]

 The good: The no huddle offense.  Finally breaking the one td on first drive and then mostly field goals for remainder of game curse. Joe actually spreading the ball around and hitting his targets.  O line was amazing.  Not taking Tunsil in the first round.

  The bad: the hands to the face call on Sr and Jernigan's penalty.  I mean really?

He isn't very good either, he's giving up alot of throws including the lone TD todays, and I think alot of Landry's catches were against him as well.
