No argument the Dolphins are the worst team in the NFL. May the worst team in the last few years.

Nevertheless....the Ravens did better than good teams do against such competition. They buried them.

I'm very, very impressed with this 2019 roster and coaches.

Game ball went to Eric.

 

Oh...the Browns did what the Browns do....Scream.gif

True.

Another first. A ravens team that didn't play down to the competition. The culture has changed. Part of that is Lamar. He's obsessed with scoring TD's.

 

More firsts...

 

In a 59-10 season-opening rout of the Miami Dolphins, Jackson produced the best passer rating (158.3) in Baltimore Ravens history and Brown became the first player in NFL history with multiple 40-yard touchdowns in his career debut.

'Mr. Video Game': Ravens' Lamar Jackson makes special homecoming

For those wondering whether Jackson could become an effective passer in the league, he led the Ravens to their largest margin of victory with his arm instead of his legs, completing 17 of 20 passes for 324 yards and five touchdowns in three quarters of work. His five touchdown passes -- one short of his total in seven starts last season -- tied a Ravens mark.

For those worried about Brown's surgically repaired foot, the rookie first-round pick scored touchdowns of 47 and 83 yards on his first two catches. His 147 yards receiving are the sixth most in an NFL debut and the most in a debut since 2003. ....https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27570237/jackson-brown-make-history-ravens-opener

They did damn well against good competition just running the ball last year.

Today Lamar was throwing Johnny U passes. All of them. If he was off or 50-50 there would be concern.

He's answered the bell. He's a solid NFL QB. Oh....no turnovers.

It's very safe to say this is no longer a 1 dimensional team. Every D co-coordinator in the league will lose sleep for the week before a Ravens game.

Certainly it's very early to tell. Usually after 4 games you have a good gauge on a team.

They will do fine.

 

For now it's safe to say Ravens fans are happy as shit....

Lamar was outstanding today, great touch, accuracy, field view, no one could have done better.

 

The line was dominant, backs were quick, wide outs & tight ends caught & tracked well.

 

Defense was very good but they also got a little lucky if you will.

 

A shame to lose Smith for the year, likely. The linebackers still struggle with man coverage, the rush can't get the pressure on without a blitz.

 

Just somethings to keep in mind as we move forward and is the offensive line for real or was their success due to a team not ready to play?

It was so nice to see a Raven's QB hit receivers in stride. That td to Snead was beautiful.

 

All in all a really good performance from the team.

All good questions T.

 

Let's keep our fingers crossed on Jimmy....

 

Head Coach John Harbaugh announced after the win that the injury is not expected to put Smith’s season in jeopardy.

“It’s not a season ending injury, as far as we know right now,” Harbaugh said. “It does not look like that at all. I’m sure he’ll get an MRI tomorrow. We’ll just have to see if it’s days, or weeks, or what. We’ll know tomorrow when we get the MRI.” A good sign, however, was that Smith was back standing on the sidelines by the end of the game.......https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/cornerback-jimmy-smith-does-not-have-season-ending-knee-injury

 

 

Not that happy with the coverage, yet it was only 176 yards surrendered.

Lost in all this is the defense against the run...Phish 21 attempts for 12 yards.... :scared: ....1.8 ypc. :thumbup:

 

TOP Ravens 40:07 to 19:53

Lamar has always been good throwing long over the middle. HE was not really tested on deep sidelines. Harbs said they kept a lot under their hat bc Mia played so poorly. So maybe we will see it later. Comparing Lamar to Johnny U is very premature.

Ravens Records.... :bow:...

 

 

The Ravens opened the 2019 season with a 59-10 win over the Miami Dolphins. Along the way, multiple records were set, both personal and for the franchise.

Here are some of the most notable stats from Sunday’s lopsided victory.
324 passing yards

In the debut of the Ravens’ new offense under coordinator Greg Roman, quarterback Lamar Jackson set a career high for passing yards, exceeding the 204 he threw against the Chargers in Week 16 last season. Jackson’s five touchdown passes also tied the franchise’s single-game record.
What they’re saying about the Ravens’ season-opening win »
147 receiving yards

The NFL debut for rookie wide receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown couldn’t have gone better. Brown’s first two catches went for touchdowns, 47 and 83 yards, respectively. The 2019 first-round draft pick also became the first player in NFL history to record multiple 40-yard touchdowns in his debut, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.


59 points

The Ravens set a franchise record for points scored in a game, surpassing the 55 they scored against the Oakland Raiders in 2012.
42 points

A 3-yard touchdown run from running back Mark Ingram in the second quarter gave the Ravens 42 points, a franchise record for points scored in any half.
85% completion rate

Jackson went 17-for-20, a new career high for completions. The 85% completion rate also set career and franchise single-game records. Jackson’s accuracy was under scrutiny following his rookie season, when he completed just 58% of his passes.

158.3 QB rating

Jackson recorded a perfect passer rating of 158.3, the first-ever in franchise history.
643 total yards

The Ravens’ 643 total yards on offense set a single-game franchise record. The previous record was 553 against the St. Louis Rams on Sept. 25, 2011. The 643 yards are also the most recorded in an NFL game since 2012, when the Houston Texans had 653 vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars...........https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/ravens/bs-sp-outstanding-stats-ravens-win-dolphins-20190908-qnvdlgnpw5g7np5q7733uwqxhu-story.html

 

 

Wow! :gorave:

 

Thank you Baltimore Sun for getting this up so fast.

Yep it was great to watch and like Papasmurf said, they demolished a crummy team like they should have done in the past. If Jackson gets thay time to throw he'll kill you. Nice touch on deep passes and hitting receivers in stride so many times was dazzzling. Defense put pressure on Fitz all game.

 

The Ravens were superbly coached for this game too.

 

But we can't crown them yet. Let's see how they do against better competition.

 

Oh, the last laugh is that we are the only team in the AFC North to win today.

 

WTF happened to Cleveland and Pittsburgh? The Steelers play was shockingly bad. Ben look old and tired.

I have never thought pit would be great. You just don't get over losing arguably the best wr and rb from your offense and all is well.

Yeah, Miami stinks. It won't always (ever?) be this easy. But the kid still made plays and made them under duress. He's building confidence (not that he ever lacked it). And the reality is, this is still probably the best running team in the NFL; their intricate run scheme demand bodies in the box, and Brown and Myles Boykin and Hurst and Andrews on the field at the same time is going to be a problem for opposing defenses. The play-action game is going to be a killer, and Jackson is going to be a highly-prolific passer.............https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/give-lamar-jackson-the-credit-he-deserves-and-surprising-week-1-storylines-that-will-prove-true-in-2019/
