Wow, what a game to wake up to this am! The defense shuts down the best offense in the NFL, in the 4th quarter! The offense scores 12 in the 4th to win! 200 yards rushing, the backs looked great, even with a luck bounce at the goal line to start the game. Sweet! I'm still not sure why Lamar threw that 2nd int, bracket coverage, not one but both safeties at the goal line, someone else had to be open but he just locked on Brown... Nonetheless, he came through, they came through and hey, we might have found an offensive line

Same old Chargers, change the coach, change the quarterback, even change cities, they always find ways to shoot them selves in the foot and lose games. Dallas at least has an excuse, they were down numerous defensive players due to injury/covid..

He is in Harbs' dog house, right?! Must be the answer, he has looked best at center every chance he gets...

One two three throw... One two three throw...one two three throw.. Lamar needs to say this over and over and do it. Make his presnap read, it is pretty easy, teams are playing zone against him most of the time. Thus he knows his receivers routes, I hope, so one two three throw. On target or out of bounds.

Freeman will save the day! 250 yards ruahing, 65 receiving, 3 tds... Bell must really be bad if he can't crack this offense

Ill be sound asleep for this one. Ill watch the carnage in the morning....

They redid Humphries to clear cap space NBC Sports: Ravens gain cap room by restructuring Marlon Humphrey’s deal. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/09/14/ravens-gain-cap-room-by-restructuring-marlon-humphreys-deal/

Im sure Bell will be moved up now that his contract won't be guaranteed. Not sure why they are working out dbs unless Smith is going to be out longer

Im watching the over time fumble play now. 3rd and seven, trips to the left, single to the short side. Lamar gets the snap, if he throws it on time he has Proche on a short curl, 2 yards away from the line to gain. Andrews is doing a seam route, Brown a crossing route. These two make a simple, legal screen in front of the 3 defenders to that side. Easy pitch & catch, fight for a first down; simple, catch the snap, hitch & throw. I don't know why he chose to pull the ball down, attempt to run; he had plenty of time to make that throw. Would it have been a first down? Who knows, but it would not have been a fumble on your own 30 yard line. This I say to his decision making, I know, first game of the season, but they said, he said, he has improved greatly. This is the same mistake, just like the fumble, he makes every game; trying to make more out of something. I know, it is part of what makes him an exciting player. But we blame, and rightfully so, the wide outs for not getting open. We blame the line, we blame the play calling/design, all, rightfully so, but he shares blame as well.

The first lost fumble was one thing, but the second, in overtime? If you learn from your mistakes you learn them from play to play, quarter to quarter. No excuse for the 2nd lost fumble, that is a clear sign of not learning.

Why bring Joe into this? I was right about the 3 fumbles, about the running amount for the runningbacks, about Mosely getring his tackles late, because he got caught in the wash,. Missed assignments that lead to big runs at key times for the Raiders. Wanna talk about that instead of a qb no longer on this team, barely in the league?

Maybe, maybe everyone believing their own hype, ready to stand and boast of a great play they made instead of seeing what was right in front of them, not seeing the ball. I am sick of seeing a quarterback heave a prayer ball up deep down field only to have the defensive backs not find the ball, instead, the receiver turn to make the game changing/winning reception. Tired of seeing the Ravens defense blitz all out play after play and get burned. What's that they say about doing the same thing, failing and expecting a different outcome? Tired of the receivers, no matter who they are, running routes too slow, too fast, not deep enough. Quartebacks thinking something is there, rather than knowing what is open. Tired of the same in game coaching mistakes. In other words, just tired after a loss that should have been a win, and the next win will cure all, right?

Time will tell

Right! Sitting right in front of him, maybe he thought it was Waller's nuts and didn't want to grab em....

I saw Andrews open often throughout the night, Lamar just did not either have time to get to that progression, or just did not see him. Cover 3 drag routes are always open and Andrews was dragging behind the linebackers infront of the safeties; throw the dag gone ball. He throws it to small wide receivers when they are blanketed five yards from the line of scrimmage, trust the tightend. If the db is on the left side of the receiver, and is the only defender covering, throw it to right side? We see it with every other good qb in this league, why not with Lamar? "Fumbles are going to happen"?!!! That's his excuse? In your first year, sure, not after an off season where you procliamed you had grown so much as a quaryerback, no, not. They have no choice but to pay him what he wants, none. The boycotts would crush this team. With a line such as the Ravens have, Lamar is the only remedy. The defense has to button things up, just stopping the fumbles, wins the game. But this team is starting 0-2, no way they beat the Chiefs.

No matter what the bafoons in the booth said, same old Lamar, same old passing game. Okay, his base was wider, yippie! He still carriee the ball like a loaf of bread. Was it all his fault? No chamce The line was horribly inconsistent, the Ravens gained 200 yards rush as a team, 400 + total yards inspite of them. The defense, how many blown call did they make? How many leads did they blow? Including, especially with 40 freaking seconds left! Your top tackler had 6 tackles; He was a defensive back! In the end, just game one, 16 more, I expect better from the line, from the defense Why would you go cover 0 in over time, when you know that the defense is tired? Play calling on both sides of the ball was bad. A well cosched team? Prepared for the first game of the season? I think not.

That is the way he always looks when things don't go the snowflakes way. Better play calling, design, blocking, route running and they win; it's not all his fault, can't be...

Ill take camp is needed for $1,000 Alex

We saw it with Suggs, with Watt in Houston, with Mac in Chicago, we could go on forever

Yep, he bumped his head when he amd Kelly Gregg crashed the golf cart into the stands during camp.... Ok, sorry, this is a serious issue. It would not surprise me to find out that he has CTE, we won't know until he dies. Hopefully they can find out a living way to detect it.

What's the over/ under on fumbles? On rushing yards by runningbacks? Total for the backs I think 110 Fumbles I lay the number at 3

So Murray, Bell, and Freeman, ya know what they say; throw a piece of pasta against the wall if it sticks, a ldente..

They didnt have the cap space. They restructured a couple of guys so they now have $3 mil to spend

Raiders in a route, sure the team might rally behind the serious losses of players, but not this soon...

My worry is turnovers on offense. Mesh.points are key and will the new stable of backs be able to mesh with Lamar and this read run game? If not, it will force the Ravens to throw more, less time of possession, defense tires more, I think 7 wins....
