Gus trucks over a defender, for 11 yards

Gus to the left, breaks outside for 7

Dobbins for 7, 3rd and 3 Dobbins for 4,

Andrews drops another one, tough catch given the ball floated to him

Hey, Merry Christmas buddy

Now can Duv do something? He seems off today Fair catch at the 35

4th down, nice stand

Na, his forward progress had been ruled

3rd and 11, come on defense

Jackson makes a diving attempt, nope. NFL.net work having major issues with their connection 3rd and five from the 45, Huntley throws to a tightly covered Jackson, complete but throws it too far out of bounds. This could be a long day with this play calling. The only thing stopping the run is Roman. He is like immodium AD for diarrhea

Dobbins for another 6, at this rate he might get 100 before half

Running through them like bad sushi through a colon, Huntley makes his first mistake, faking the handoff then being forced out of bounds for a 4 yard loss. Nice shovel pass to Hill for 13 & a 1st down

Wow a full quarter with no commercials. Ravens had the ball once, normally I agree with Harbs about going for it on 4th and one, especially in the Redzone. But it was longer than one, 1.5, and after that time consuming drive, take the 3 this early in the game.. nope... Nice sacks by Hamilton and play by Queen to knock them out of field goal range and keep them there until the 2nd quarter starts... But a quick completion, they are targeting Hamilton in coverage, they kick a 47 yarder. 3-0 Browns Vikes won in ot by the way, largest comeback in NFL history, wow

Of note, the defender for the Vikes who scouped and scored, took his helmet off and threw it in disgust when the touchdown was overturned. It cost the Vikes 15 yards. They were able to drive just outside of field goal range before turning it over on downs. How nice would that 15 yard have been.... What a game Vike tie it up with a 50 or so yard screen pass & 2 pt conversion with just over 2mins left did I say what a game yet!?

Man how nice would it be for the Ravens to have Justin Jefferson

Vikes keep the ball, however, 3:23 left.

Wow, 2nd defensive touchdown by the Vikes stopped and over turned by an early whistle

Been waiting for the comeback, sure enough, 36-28 Colts with 5 mins left..... Colts doing everything you can't do with a big lead, penalties, incomplete passes, defensive break downs...

As usually happens when you take the normal out of a player's routine... The Vikes are melting down in the first half, Colts with a special teams & defensive touchdown, up 30-0 with 4 mins left in the first half, ouch...

Well, Stanford did not help us out... Here is an excellent read on the air raid offense, on an up & coming offensive coordinator in Graham Harrell, a name I would love to see on the Ravens coaching staff.. Hammer and Rails: Sound the Alarm. Walters hires Air Raid Offensive Coordinator Graham Harrell. https://www.hammerandrails.com/2022/12/16/23512563/sound-the-alarm-walters-hires-air-raid-offensive-coordinator-graham-harrell

You can bet Cleveland will have 9 in the box to stop the run. Roman is going to have set the run up with the pass, run properly, at them, between the tackles, let the backs find the cut back lanes as they FINALLY did against Pit

Getting injured players back does not count in the grade for Eric. Signing Williams and trading for Smith are A++ moves. One with a caveat, if Smith is signed or not. After that, his draft so far brings the grade down, way down. Owe has not shown much, granted they use him more in pass coverage, and to eat up blockers to free up rushers. Still, he was drafted to get sacks, pressures, fail. Drafting Cleveland a good move, he has shown great promise when given the chance. Mason has been a bust even for a 5th rounder, Wallace, I was high on him but for what ever reason, he has not played much in a wr needy offense. Hayes, another defender that has not turned up much at all. Hamilton has been slightly better than I thought (I thought him a bust if you remember). Still struggles in coverage, but blitzes well. Ojaba, in a year when the team needed a pass rusher desperately and wide out help, they draft an injured project. Jury has to be out since he has not come back from the injury. So far, his A++ has been dropped, IMHO, to a B- maybe a C+. Again, it all hinges on Smith, Ojab, and Owe. If Smith walks and the other 2 never provide what they were highly drafted for, he could get D. Can't fault him too much for wide out issues, they've been a part of this team since inception, since Jackson and Alexander (both drafted by Ozzie in Cleveland) left.

Huntely cleared protocol, Harbs plays games not naming a qb but it is pretty clear, Huntely will start. Now, can he go turnover free, make that one or two big plays that extend one or two important scoring drives?

I agree, fortify the offensive line, get a top receiver talent to go with Bateman. Get depth on defense, let us see what Huntley can do. If he fails or is just proved to be a solid backup, go into the 2024 draft after a qb to groom with a great offensive line and strong defense. The direction the Ravens go in the draft will depend on what happens with Lamar. My guess for this year is, if the Ravens keep winning, Lamar hurries back, if not, he sits out the rest of the season Luke last year.

So, we will know by tomorrow if Huntley will play since he practiced fully today. If he has no issues tomorrow, he should be a go
