Dominate when the teams are bad is great but it leaves a lot in question. The pass rush is still a big question mark, the passing game is as well. Yes, they should have beaten the Steelers twice, Titans once; all three games they dominated running, stopping the run for most of those games; but they lost all three. The defense tired out at the end, turnovers, penalties. Frankly, I am ecstatic about 11 wins, it has been a frustrating yet exciting season. Will they go down to Tennessee with a big club, kick the door in & yell; "where are the sumbitches!" Take the fight out of em as we know they can? Win with discipline, win while having fun? I dunno, I know this has been a strange season, shoot a 5-10 team still had a shot at the playoffs until the last week! What ever happens I am content, I know this team has holes, time to fill them, but a nucleus to build around.

The injury to Dickerson, center Bama, may have him fall to the Ravens in the mid to late round one. He would be a great addition to this line; really smart, extremely strong, I know Castillo has played well in spots this year, but Dickerson would be a nice pick up

Yeah it will be the Titans, a team this Ravens tea controlled for 2 games but gave both games away. Will third time be a charm?

Leave it to the Giants, open field, first down game over but he fumbles.Giants some how recover it;... Is a 6-10 really gonna get into the playoffs?

Fake punt, come on we can do it! 11-5, top spot for the wild card; sweet!

Now we see why Huntley is a 4th string qb; bad choice

They may get 500

This may be reset; looked good from here, I think his foot was clean

Archuletta is an idiot

Hey let's hear it for the new holder, that's important

Dobbins! 72 yards! That is what TOP does for you late in games

Im on delay, hate all the commercial breaks. Nice revenge pick by Peters, aint the beer cold! Ravens easily into the playoffs; now stay healthy

Great jpb by Humphries to under cut that route and stay with his man... Shut outs are hard in the NFL...

17 plays, 93 yards, 8:30 wow, TD! I thought Iowa State had some impressive time of posession numbers; this is sick!

That pass to Andrews was late, thus having to fight for it against 3 defenders. The Bengals are playing match up zone, timing passes are key to have success.... Run the ball, they are tiring out

Missed a wide open Boykin for a first down. Forced it to Andrews, tip-pick.. Great pass to Boykin for the td. Board is turning into a Bart Scott... Brown drops another... But luckily it's the Bengals.. 10-0, these announcers stink

Dunno, a 7 minute field goal drive where Jackson had the first down if he hands it off...

Max, Jimmy Dugan says to avoid the clap!

Are you crying!? There's no crying in (sic) footbal!

Some do, they can line up properly and avoid those big play illegal formation ones. They can get the plays in faster, players in the huddle, to get the delay of game penalties stopped. Those are the biggest issues, sure, a holding call is 10 yards while the aforementioned ones are "only five". But holds happen all the time, sometimes they are unavoidable, even a defender can make it appear they are held. So just knock out the penalties they really can control and a 15 + yard gain will change the game instead of a five yard illegal formation one deflating a drive.

Waller really turned his career around, sometimes getting cut is the best thing to happen to a player.

Stone was not very good at coverage, Kearse has more experience, but he was underperforming for the Lions, then he pulls a bone headed move...

My apologies if I lead you to think I was talking about replacing Harbs or Eric. Every coach, every team has their deficiencies. No team hits a homerun with every player drafted. This org has done better than most, no doubt. My sil & I were just talking about this over the Christmas dinner, he is a Redslurs fan (but is coming closer to changing teams ) Think back to the Bills, 4 straight Super Bowls, four straight loses. But those were great coaches, great players chosen by great front offices, so great teams even though they "failed". This is a great organization, a great team. As I have said numerous times, of the five loses this year, even add the three games they kost last year counting the playoff loss, they were only really beat twice. The other loses were them beating them selves with costly penalties, undisciplined play, unforced turnovers from trying to do too much. As a fan, I could not be happier with this org, I see the great plays, the potential for a few years of top play. But I still find the need to say, wait, just a little more attention to detail, clock management, play design/calls at certain times, better decisions being made, we could have a Super Bowl team for a few years. Shoot, if we had a true number one receiver, how would he alone open the middle of the field, even help Lamar run wild more? But for some reason this team just can't draft one...

Per BAl just now... Tucker can punt, right?

When this team wins games against teams with winning records, then maybe we can look at the great job the cosches are doing. Remember, this team rushed for well over 200 yards and STILL LOST! Why? The same issues this team has every game, win or lose; and lose more times agaisnt giod teams too boot; turnovers, presnap penalties, undisciplined play. So how good are the coaches if the players make the same mistakes? How good are the people who chose the players if they are uncoachable in that they keep making the same mistakes? Oh crap, I am being a debbie downer, or in today's world, a "karen"... By talking about what ultimately has kept this team from winning real games. I know, 14-2 last year, possibly-likely, 11-5 this year, what could any "real fan" have to complain about..... & you would be right, & wrong at the same time, just as I am....
