  1. I tell ya, do your self a favor, go to the you tube and watch the condensed version of the Miami Ohio vs Buffal game. Circus catch after circus catch by both teams. Ive never seen so many impossible catches in one game.
  2. Still haven't found anything about Zay leaving the team to be with his mom..
  3. A hamstring, a knee, keep moving down the leg and you get to the anckle... Lamar rested today as did 7 or 8 others. Not a bad idea with a short week next week I suppose
  4. Good enough to elude sacks with his patented spin move. He knows this defense well, just as well as they know him
  5. Taylor is a better thrower and runner than Fields, the defense best watch their rush lanes.
  6. Reports, if true, Zay Flowers has flown to Florida to be with his ailing mom, no word on how long he will be away. Granted, I cant find anyone confirmation on this other than a face book post
  7. No no no, at least you can keep control
  8. Like the Browns, the Jets can rush the passer, good front four, just no depth beyond that. Yes, this should extend the win streak against bad quarterbacks....
  9. Moving right along, trying to remember that a win is a win even when you play terrible. Yes, the band may be back together but... Ah no, Benny and the Jets are not coming to a stage near you. The New York Jets are with their own strange leader in tow. Yes, their signal caller is quite the enigma, one play he looks like a quarterback who can carry a team to the Super Bowl. The problem is, the very next play may leave you wondering why he is in the NFL. So far this season he is completing 63 % of his passes, with six touchdowns and one interception, not great, but there is some space before we get to terrible. The problem, for the Jets offense, is that he is only completing passes and average 6.3 yards down field. Fields can run, more like a rabbit rather than a cheetah, averaging 5.3 yards per carry with three touchdowns and 20 first downs. In other words, the Baltimore defense will have to be cognizant of their rush lanes. He will be without his top receiver in Garret Wilson. However, he is being benched and another former Raven quarterback will start instead, Tyrone Taylor; this should be interesting. Defensively, Baltimore will face a depleted defense after a Jets fire sale before the trade deadline. They are ranked 19th in the league in total defense, allowing 329 yards per game, 190 yards through the air, 138 on the ground. Ny is averaging 21 points per game, allowing its opponents to average 26 points, and have a minus 10 turnover ratio, thus their record of 2-7. They have registered 17 sacks on the season but have yet to interception a pass, the only team in the league with none, while allowing 17 touchdowns. through the air. To make a long story short, Baltimore cannot play with its food, they must put this team away. There is a tendency for some teams to play down to their opponent, let us hope Baltimore does not, this is another must win game and they need to fine tune this team for the road ahead. So, who ya got?
  10. So you're saying that you are Not a Pointer Sister
  11. With Rogers possibly done for a number of games, likely a broken wrist, that will change things for Pitt. I can see the Ravens sweeping Pitt, especially now. Winning the division is the only way the Ravens make the playoffs, no way the get a wild card, too many teams in front of them, even with the Kc loss. But I agree, this is not a championship team this year. This line has to spend the off season working with a real strength expert. They must be the weakest offensive line in the league
  12. I'm watching the 1st half now, it is amazing how this team plays so nonchalantly against lesser teams. Now granted, the Browns have a good defense, mostly their front four, but come on! Thankfully they don't have a quarterback worth his salt right now. Sanders may or may not be one, he is elusive, but I fear this win streak is a mirage.
  13. Yeah, they did everything to give the game away. Were fortunate that some penalties were not called, i guess it evened out since the refs missed a few the Browns made. Ugly football game but a win.
  14. Just got home, recording the game, been a long 4 days.
  15. With their defensive line vs the Ravens offensive line, I don't have high hopes.
  16. Lamar in, Hill and Bateman out for the game
  17. Humph had a rod put in his finger, he is out for the game
  18. Wednesday absentees Lamar & Running back Justice Hill, receiver Rashod Bateman, linebacker Jay Higgins, and cornerback Marlon Humphrey were also among those absent from Wednesday’s practice Per NBC
  19. I am surprised that the Eagles will keep to the deal. A ruling could be made that him not being able/ willing to play could nix the deal. But a pick is a pick
  20. He didn't travel with the Eagles for their game against the Packers and is now stepping away from football to "get right physically & mentally".
  21. So it is a high anckle sprain for Bateman who may miss this game. He stated that is was not too bad, that is why he went back in for the 2 pt conversion. Humphrey has a finger injury that likely requires surgery. Still uncertain if he will have the surgery which will keep hom out a couple of weeks, or judt play through it. Crazy kids, I played through a broken thumb, never had it cast, and broken ribs, never missed a snap. These light weights
  22. Yeah, they have no depth on their defensive line, so they wear down in the 2nd half against good running teams. They still managed what 5 sacks against the Chargers who are down to their 3rd string tackles, both sides of the line
  23. Anyone can see, if they watch the offensive line, that there is a major issue. Even us fans with untrained eyes can see the players missing blocks, not sustaining blocks, blocking air for that matter. I understand not wanting to make coaching changes in the middle of the season. I also understand, as Ive stated adnauseam, this group, minus Vorhees, lead the lead last year in offense, so there is reason for hope. However, teams routinely make changes along their line, for injury yes, but also for poor performance. There are now 3 guards sitting on the bench, two unproven, but we know Cleveland csn block properly. They are all healthy now, Bullock is known for his power blocking as is Cleveland. So why the coaches, who must be able to clearly see on film and know the blocking scheme, continue to refuse to even try changing Faalele or Vorhees, one of them atleast, leaves me puzzled. Either they see them in practice and they are bums or there is an alterrior motive. Eric has missed on a lot of players, but I refuse to believe that he whiffed on 4, 5 guards. I know the Biscuit is a hands off owner, but were it me, I'm getting to the bottom of it and yes, if anything, making a change just for change, a few series, a half, a game, one or both guards.
  24. Every team has a clunker now & then. Sunday night was that very clunker for the Steelers and Aaron Rogers. But the question is; is Aaron just starting to feel his age? Much like Russle Wilson did last year after much the same start? Or was this just a clunker, a long trip across the country, after sunset the us old folks start to tire? We shall see
