Shut down the Lions pretty good, but yeah, they are an average d

Do your self a favor, go to you tube and watch the condensed version of this game. No defense, Joe withh a sprained ac joint throws for 400+ yards 4 tds. 1 fumble when he got selected on a sack and a pick. The 2nd pick was the hail Mary at the end. Bengals and Joe put up 42 points and lost on a a broken lame tackle. Amazing game
-
I dunno, their defense is pretty darn good and with the Baltimore defense, they might make McCarthy look like Joe Montana
-
A few have, Lynch is one recent, doing a good job in San Fran, Elway is finding his, well, way.
But certainly not current, active players
-
Ha, seems I jinxed them, they cant stop turning the ball over, several on the Steelers side of the field...
-
Wow, fabulous job building their offensive line. Powerful and skill in run blocking and pass blocking.
Jones usually has a clean pocket to throw. Taylor, nice holes fo run through, guards getting to the 2nd level to get him more yards.
Granted they have not played a real good defense yet, but they are doing what they should; dominate the lesser defenses.
-
We will find out next week, if they cant beat Mini, they are definitely done

True perhaps, but this will be a good draft for linemen, tackles, both offensive and defensive

Eagles give Baltimore 6th round pick for Alexander, and a 7th round pick, I wonder if Lamar okay'ld this deal, per Espn

He was gambling with the ol. Dumb move. One of his bulls on the dl retired and he did nothing. The d was ok bc the offense took leads and teams had to chase. Get a passrusher and stop dicking around.
He retired, cant plan for that and they brought in some big bodies that needed time to learn. Had Madds not got hurt, they had time to learn.
Okay, Madds gets hurt after the draft, not much you can do then unless you want to way over pay for a trade.
I do agree to a point, with you. He counted on the offensive line that was fine last year, to be as good if not better this year based, rightfully so, on experience from last year and another year in the NFL weight rooms getting stronger.
Guess what? Something went wrong, they all, all, got worse. You get to claim Stanley, he was slower this year and got hurt. I'll give you him.
But who could think ALL would suck? That is coaching, plain and simple. Harbs for not seeing it, the ol coach who is teaching them. Not much Eric can do about that, Harbs has all power over coaching and I doubt they want to change the old coach in the middle of the season.

Caleb Lomu, offensive tackle Utah
6'6" 308, a true tactician, left tackle, redshirt sophomore. If he comes out, expected to go in the top 12.
Could be our answer for Stanley's spot.

I don't know about wasted. We've had this discussion, what freaking happened? No one has answers.
Top offense last year with the same players save 1, ONE, a swing guard near the end of his career and always nicked up.
40 pts against Buffalo in a loss, at Buffalo too boot, then they fell apart.
The line could no longer block etc, no progession on skill, strength etc from the young linemen, 3 of them.
I understand the defense, no edge rusher, the injury and then retirement of two key inside tackles, there was no way of knowing, seeing, preparing for either of those.
No pressure on the pocket I don't care how good you are in the 2ndary, qbs will find open men.
I will agree, Eric has missed on his picks, on free agent signings, hello Alexander still has yet to play, still a healthy scratch.
Middle backer, weakside, cant seem to find one, talent is there, they just are not playing at a high level.
2 high picks on an edge rusher, both everyone not in the ear room knew were bad picks.
Yeah, Eric boggled the drafts, if we had a better offensive line we would be the Bengals with a healthy Burrow, outscoring people to win, but slightly better on defense in the 2ndary, Wiggins, Starks just need experience which they are getting now, Hamilton is a stud.
It's a start that can be quickly rebuilt around them, IF, they can get good edge play. Big fatty's are easy to find when you know that you need them.

Saying they sucked with Lamar only applies at the very beginning of the game; he did, after all, complete 18 of 24 for 204 yds and 4 touchdowns and no INT's.
What you say about the offensive line is more accurate. It needs a lot of work and Ricard didn't look ready, I agree.
The defensive line is the big problem. They need a lot of help all across it.
Another problem is that they'll have 20-some free agents after this year.
My biggest issue with the defense is 1) poor angles 2) terrible tackling
It hasn't just been this past game where they take bad angles to ball carrier, resulting in more yards. They constantly let the ball carrier "out the back door" as it were.
Tackling, how many missed or broken tackles does this team give up each game? If there was a way to track it for the public, I would bet Baltimore is near tops.
Both parts were never a part of the Baltimore defenses of old. These issues started last year and have gotten worse.
That is coaching just as is the offensive line issues, poor foot work, reaching for blocks, not getting their feet under them. All lead to linemen being run over, ha ing no power.
As a team, this team appears weak, again not just this game, but every game; coaching.
Something happened and needs to change ASAP, since last year. We know what happened to the offensive line, a coach died a new one took over. Frankly, he stinks, evidence is the terrible line play.

They sucked with Lamar. The ol is no better. Ricard is not right yet.
I’m more talking someone like Hendrickson. He is a fa after the season. Im not giving up a big haul for a guy we might not be able to keep.
Oh I get ya, but lm not sure there are any out there on teams willing to trade with Baltimore
-
Yeppers, someone not on the back end of their career
-
Meh, either way they need an edge rusher for next year at the least. Green looks lost out there, not much power. He got a nice excuse me half sack.
-
It's a short week game, I try not to judge but man that first half was brutal from a defensive stand point and the offensive line.
Against a better than, nay, a better quarterback, that defense gets toasted.
Even so, they shut em out in the 2nd half thanks in part to a bad quarterback and scored 2 more touchdowns. Win any way you can.
Shame they left Miami with just a win and not an edge rusher
You could make a drinking game with how many missed tackles the defense had
-
Nobody from the outside lineback/defensive end group can hold an edge. Holding an edge means stretching it out, not getting caved in creating a huge hole. Nor, Nor get pinned in allowing for the runner to get around the corner.
This defense still sucks, they looked better the past 2 games because of other factors besides being good.
-
Offensive line continues to be offensive, yet no changes, right coach Harbs? They are playing great, right coach Harbs? 1 drive for a score, 1 score took 4 plays from the 3 yard line to get in and was only possible thanks to a turnover.
Change the guards!
-
Defense gets a gift call of tripping, offense gives it right back with undisciplined play.
Special teams, Harb's bread & butter, gives it up even more.
Good hold, credit, by the defense to hold them to a field goal when they started at the Baltimore 29 yard line..
This is a playoff team? I think not. Prove me wrong when I wake up and see who won, when I watch the recording
-
Only our defense could have a guy stopped, surrounded for a 6 yard loss and let him get 8 yards
-
What an abysmal opening show.... and Kaylee, young lady, eat something, you look like a bobble head, have a burger on a roll, with lettuce and tomato, side of fries with gravy on the side
-
10 games left, no, 1 game left and it is tonight.
Lose tonight and while you can still be mathematically alive, but reality is you are done.
As it stands, they will likely have to go 8-2 over the next 10 weeks, certainly a sweep of the Steelers is almost a must, it all starts tonight..mmmmmm
Tucker no more, 68 yarder new record
in Baltimore Ravens
Posted
Cam Little hit a 68 yarder as time expired in the first of half for the Jags... records were made to be broken
