Week 14: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly discussion/rant Patriots edition

[omar586]

unbalanced play calling is killing  this team, run it even if its 1-3 yards, its better than an incompleteion and u take time off the clock.

[K-Dog]

To keep things in perspective . 

We just lost a one score game to the best team in the NFL.

We could've kept Boldin. We used the Boldin money for scrubs like Huff and Spears. The FO just got cocky.

Hindsight makes it look like an easier decision though 

[Cillmatic]

Top 5 in passing attempts yet our RB's CONSISTANTLY out play the WR's and our QB plays like a deer in head lights.

 

Brought to you by the IDIOTS of Baltimore who thought Flacco was a west coast quarterback and the FO who couldn't draft a good receiver to save its life.

Anyone who doesn't see the light is just in denial, I challenge you to disprove this.

Awesome quote from Pollard, wonder what we could have done if we kept Reed, Pollard and Boldin around a little longer

Only guy worth keeping of those three was Boldin. Reed was just a name looking for way too much money at that point.

with New England only rushing three or four players, I wonder why plays weren't designed to exploit that

You expect our coaches to actually prepare for a Monday night game?

Even in hindsight it looks bad. Give Flacco big money, then take away his most reliable weapon. What other team has done that?

You can't do that when you're down 3 scores. And newsflash: 3 runs of 1 to 3 yds does not get you first downs. Only leads to 3rd and long and 3 and outs.

Ravens are who we thought they were. An average to below team on offense depending on the week and the defense is good to ok depending on the opponent. 

 

.pollard may have a point here 

"Now he's (Harbaugh) got to COACH & that's not possible"  WOW!  What an indictment!  He also said.....

Don't just blame #33. #32 was suppose to be in the middle 1/3's........ can't jump routes from that deep... oh wait #20 did lol

 

[Doomville]

The defense this year, to me, does not feel like the past ones. This defense is good but does not put fear in the opponents. I do not get the same feeling from them which i get when i look at the seahawks defense. I don't have anything to back this up but it's a gut feeling.

I'd agree except for how ugly we looked losing it.

30-31 since the Super Bowl.

has anyone ever heard harbs give any explination for their lack of a hurry up offense, I have never seen us actauly HURRY during the closing minutes?  Has he ever addressed this issue I dont think i have ever heard him do so?

Yea I agree just saying looking at it now is a lot easier than in the moment. 

Ravens needed depth and they thought they would get that with huff and spears at the time

What makes you think he's not? He's almost at 1,000 yards and has caught almost every single pass thrown his way... he's been way more than a 1 trick pony for us in his routes. I couldn't even imagine this team without wallace this year...

I know.. I have wanted m Wallace  since before  he was drafted to our rivals..  He fits flaccos style... I actually was going to order myself a Wallace Jersey

This is the worst night to be a Ravens fan in years.

To everyone calling out Hester on one mess up, this game could have easily of been a Patriots win by 20+. While he deserves some blame, he is no where near the main reason we lost.

He set the stage but no not the main culprit but you've got to have all phases on point to win in Foxborough and we're not even close

dude when ever we get away from the run game, we always lose, those 1-3 yards will make the D tired and eventually bust out a big gains, the pats know we're the good on run D, but guess what they did they ran up the middle, 

 

[Florida Ravens Fan]

I would love to see Harbs take accountability for once.

[Dr. Kelley]

This defense is all hype. Its coasted on over inflated stats they got from playing enough inept offenses to make them seem way better than they really are. Over rated.

We haven't played the run game all season yet we managed 7 wins.

I love seeing a player put as much effort into the game as wallace does... fighting for that first down on that cut back. would have be nice to see it work

Hester has been afraid to catch the ball all year not just this game and look at his first catch he almost blew it with a really late fair catch signal nearly fumbling again, he has lost confidence. cut him

Oh yeah, I couldn't either. I think he's been a good player for the Ravens, but top 85% is pushing it I think.  I might be a bit bias right now because I think he totally wimped up on that interception tonight.

I just don't think the coaching staff can justify not playing Wallace-Perriman-Smith on most plays.

Hester has been terrible all year and needs to be cut, he most likely will be done with us after this season.

I get the same gut feeling
