Another wide open wr deep
-
So let's go defense, get the offense one more possession in the 1st quarter
-
7-3, Tucker is good... they better get this redzone play calling fixed. I don't want to see five games without a touchdown again...
-
Set your feet, he was open. Also a terrible play call in the redzone,
-
Gus for 6, let's finish this drive right!
-
Duv! Great catch for 32 yards!
-
Moving well on the ground, keep it up
-
The Bus with 3 straight carries, one a 12 yard gain!
-
Good to see Gus out there
-
Man that was an easy drive down the field for them, hope the defense wakes up while the offense is on the field. Shoot, hope the offense is a wake
-
Just open the door, let him in... no backers scraping,
-
No edge set, need a pick
-
Every record gets broken, shutouts in this league are rare
-

-
Once again the middle backer fail to get into the passing lanes
-
That's better, patience,
-

Hey VA, great take. Let me say I do not disagree, but also, do not agree. Take the 3 loses this year. With the caveat of getting some players back from injury who missed most if not all of last year. This team was trouncing what some are calling the best team in the NFL, for 2 almost 3 quarters. In the other two loses, this team was destroying the Phins, must like they did the Bill's, and held a 14+ point lead in another loss. Yes, it's bad, yes, this team did what no other team did, blow double digit leads in each of their first six games and not have a winning record. Blah, blah, blah So what we know is that this defense, again, missing or getting players back who missed a lot of time due to injury, shut down, even for a half to three quarters, every team they faced this year. This offense scored, driving 90+ yards, scoring quickly on one or two plays, in each of the games this year, including the 3 losses. Now it is just a matter of building on those positive plays, capitalizing on the desperation of other teams being down by 14+ scores coming out of half time. When/if they do, those 3 losses are turned to wins. With players who missed time due to injury last year back, and back to game speed, they are also building chemistry between them and their teammates. So that now, going forward, the play should be more consistent, both on defense and offense. Lamar can be a 20-10 td/int quarterback, there is nothing wrong with those numbers. Perfect? No, no qb is, again, look at Roger's and his struggles this year, Wilson, etc. Joe Montanna was never perfect, if he wad, they would have won far more Super Bowls. Even Brady, 18-0 going into the Super Bowl, (even though Rex Ryan screwed up a Ravens victory at the end), lost a Super Bowl, so they finished 18-1. 20-10, with a good run game, Stanley is back and in great form, and a solid defense, the line is getting healthier by the day, and this team can win consistently, 10-12 games every year Lamar is playing that well. That means playoffs more times than not. Sure, we still need to see him play well in prime time, but tell me, how many Super Bowls has Roger's or Wilson won? How many did Manning or Marino win? Are you saying you wouldn't want Roger's, or Marino in his prime? 2 Super Bowls combined over a combined 20+ years, hall of fame qbs...

That is the ticket Mr Humphries. https://www-espn-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34841204/marlon-humphrey-says-ravens-pressing-need-relax?amp_gsa=1&_js_v=a9&platform=amp&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#amp_tf=From %1%24s&aoh=16663716419988&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.espn.com%2Fnfl%2Fstory%2F_%2Fid%2F34841204%2Fmarlon-humphrey-says-ravens-pressing-need-relax OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Repeated fourth-quarter meltdowns have led to one of the wildest starts in Baltimore Ravens history. Marlon Humphrey says Ravens are 'pressing,' need to 'relax' Jamison HensleyESPN Staff Writer6:27 PM ET3 Minute Read Woody: Ravens' D putting too much pressure on Lamar Damien Woody and Bart Scott discuss who is at fault for the Ravens' struggles this season. OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Repeated fourth-quarter meltdowns have led to one of the wildest starts in Baltimore Ravens history. Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey said Thursday that the sting of another late-game collapse led to him referencing a quote often attributed to Albert Einstein after a 24-20 loss to the New York Giants. "That was just frustration amongst some of the guys," Humphrey said. "We were all talking like, 'Man, we kind of keep doing the same thing at the end of games. Not finishing games.'" The Ravens (3-3) are the only team in NFL history to hold a double-digit lead in NFL history in the first six games of a season and not have a winning record, according to research by the Elias Sports Bureau. On Sunday, Baltimore led 20-10 in the fourth quarter only to watch the Giants score two touchdowns in the final six minutes. Two hours after the loss, Humphrey tweeted: "Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. -Albert Einstein" The Ravens have been outscored 64-22 in the fourth quarter. That 42-point margin is the worst fourth-quarter differential in the NFL this season. Humphrey said the players approached coach John Harbaugh about changing some small details, including checks on defense. But the two-time Pro Bowl defender believes the best way to overcome their late-game problems is not to overthink them. "We all want to make those plays at the end," Humphrey said. "We all want it, but when we spoke in the team meeting, I was like, 'We actually need to relax some.' I think that's kind of been the problem. We're pressing so hard that it's almost doing a reverse effect." In Lamar Jackson's first four seasons as a starting quarterback, Baltimore was 31-3 in games in which it led by at least 10 points. Now, the Ravens have matched that number of losses with double-digit leads in the first six games this season. In the fourth quarter this season, Jackson has thrown one touchdown and four interceptions. His QBR of 28 ranks 28th in the league. Humphrey went up to Jackson during a practice this week and told him, "We're ready for you to lead us."

Wow, what a nice haul for Carolina, ESPN: Sources - Panthers trading star Christian McCaffrey to 49ers. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34842974/sources-panthers-trading-star-christian-mccaffrey-49ers

A rivalry, a division game at home. If this team can't get and stay fired up, play inspired ball in all phases of the game, then we might as well kiss the season good bye.
