If the Ravens dont start focussing, especially on offense, this game is over

Cincy is all over the Bills in the Buffalo snow, I asked if they could win the div...... 2nd and 5 Rush in his face, Rogers just misses Metcalf 3rd and 5 Jeepers, Rogers dumps it down to the back with 2 defenders right there, he avoids them for a gain of 6. Rogers is chased from the pocket, forces a throw short but it falls to the ground .2nd and 10 False start 2nd and 15 Crowd nof that loud Ravens show blitz, Jones falls as he is about to hit Rogers, who dumps it down to Washington who 12 but gets pumled by Smith and Hamilton 3rd and 3 Rogers lofts one down the right sideline to guess who, Metcalf, who beats yes, Wiggina and Gilman for a nice catch and falls out of bounds, 28 yard gain.

Lamar rolls right, lofts one to Flowers who catches it but does not keep his left foot in bounds; incomplete Its the little things that can keep a drive going or stop one. That should have been an easy 8 yard gain 2nd and 10 Mitchel starts left, cuts up the middle for 5 3rd and 5 Great protection, Lamar throws short to Flowers who drops it Punt is to the Steelers 11, refurned to their 20, 54 yard punt

Will the Ravens defense be more prepared?

My Dawgs won't yesterday, the defense finally played like a Georgia defense, shut down Bama; completely. Is it too much to ask that the Raven defense play like a true Ravens defense as well as the offense?

Yes, what is the problem this year on offense and defense? The lines. Fix them, which can be done in the draft, this draft is pretty deep in the trenches on both sides, not so for "skilled" positions, you fix this team. Side note, how about the Job Curt Signete did at Indiana, two years, 11 wins last year, 13 so far, this year and the Big Ten Champs. Yes, a coach can make the difference

If you have time, Bailey and Texas Tech are playing now against BYU. Check out Rodriguez on Tech, while a small linebacker, he is a tackling and turnover producing machine, up for the Heisman, though he won't win it. Dude has great instincts

Funny, all week the talking heads have been hollaring for Tomlin's head. Not a peep about Harb's head. Will that flip pending on who wins this game?

Lamar took another day off today....

They can still sign Likely, pending how much he wants. There were rumors that they were negotiating with him earlier this season, maybe he wanted too much, much more than Andrews. He is good, don't get me wrong but there are a number of tightends coming out this draft just as good if not better. The kid from Oregon, Kenyon Sadiq, extremely athletic, very good bocker, not as tall as Likely at 6-3, but maybe a better runner, routes and with the ball.

I guess they just wanted to pay for his wedding

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The Ravens rewarded tight end Mark Andrews with a three-year extension Wednesday, securing his future in Baltimore. The extension is worth $39.3 million and includes $26 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Andrews, 30, was scheduled to be a free agent at the end of the season. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47193922/mark-andrews-agrees-3-year-extension-ravens

The Bills are just as much of a surprise as the Cheifs, Lions and Ravens. Now they have won a few more games but hardly look like the team of past years. Crazy town I tell ya, even college football is a bit off, no clear Heisman leaders that stand out, other than Ohio State, who has not really played a tough schedule, all the teams are pretty even

Desperate for wide receivers who can catch and run routes properly, they claim Thielen after the Vikes release him. He has stated that this will be his last year, while he can still catch, getting open, getting separation is the big problem for the old man. Should be interesting

Funny, Bengals win out, could they really win the division? I mean this has been a nutty season, stranger things have happened

Lamar has not thrown a touchdown pass in a month. In the last 3 games, 3 picks, 2 fumbles lost and been sacked 8 times. Yes, the Pit defense is drooling

It is put up or shut up time for the Ravens. Oh, they are saying the right things simce their five game winning streak came to a crashing end at the hand of the dismal Bengals. The problem is, they have been saying the same things all season and the results are always the same. From the abismal play of the offensive line where on one play they open a gaping hole for Henry to run untouched for 20 yards, only for him to be tackled for a loss the very next play. Or maybe the time they give to Lamar who stands back there and threads a pass 20 yards down field between two defenders, only for him to be sacked on the very next play, as soon as he receives the snap. Well, it isn't just the line, Lamar has not been consistent either. He fails to secure the ball when fleeing the oncoming rush, leading to a sack fumble as he cannot seem to decide to take off and run, or throw the ball. But wait, the recievers are also a culprit in this inconsistent offense, to out it mildly. They fail to gain seperation in a timely manner and drop passes that are perfectly thrown. To make a long story short, the defense is also inconsistent, so which team takes the field against a hated division rival in a game that will likely lead to either the Ravens winning the division or the Steelers. So, who ya got?

The pits, the div reminds me of the old days of the nfc south

Yes he does, a hard worker, all reports a really good guy. I am sure he is working on his hands, he is that type of player. I was hoping the Ravens would have had a shot at drafting him

Yes, I watched him at Georgia, big Dawgs fan. Washington is huge but despite what Romo was saying, he does not catch the ball consistently, reason why he dropped in the draft and the Steelers mostly use him as a blocker.
