Instigator, do.you have popcorn and is it caramel? Me, I'm watching a Corrs concert from back in the early 2000's.

Here is a question I have not heard asked nor stated. IF Stafanski is healthy enough, why can't they put him in say a hazmat suit to get him to the game and let him coaxh from one of the press boxes that will be empty?
-
Oh I know, but just because someone else goes classless does not mean we should. In any event, as I said, I get it, they are young men.

Anatomy of a loss, I wrote this after the Tucker miss. 2 touchdown passes that were not thrown, one to Boykin, one to Andrews. One tiuchdown pass that was thrown, to Brown, but the receiver did not look for the ball. A few bad plays called, not utilizing the players properly. A turnover that was not forced by the defense, was the right player to throw to, but off by a mile. A missed field goal to extend the lead. Throwing a pass with 1:45 left in the game and they have all of their timeouts. -------------------- Lamar + a great defensive effort = the great equalizers for a surprise win!

WOO - HOO! While I did not like the class act after the pick by Peters, aint the beer cold! What a performance by the defense!
-
In the last game, keep in mind, the Ravens held a lead, shut down Henry, for 3 quarters, only to turn the ball over and the defense, less several players due to covid or injuries, tired out letting the Titans back in the game. Granted, every game is different, especially in the playoffs, so get the popcorn ready, the drinks iced down, an extra one in case we need it to get over the loss or especially if we want it to celebrate a victory...

On a football note, I think Snead will be the key. The last two times they played, the Titans used a linebacker to cover him from the slot, his medium crossing and flag routes were wide open on timing routes, if Lamar will trust him, he beats the linebacker often. They will clog the middle, use a safety down in the box to control Lamar's running, so deep over routes on play action, if the line can give him time will be open to Brown and Boykin for quick, deep strikes if Lamar will take the shots

Max ; "you get a 12% raise in pay, special training, an up grade in rank and more action here than any of those hack networks. You've got tight end size with the hands of a wide receiver and a body weight to handle the biggest turkeys on the net. You've got smart eyes, good abutments, and damit I think you've got the guts to make it!"

We have sports to help us escape the world. Espn is wrong to cover the trash, this is no place for it either; it all stinks. Bring on the sports.. Hey, Hills Street Blues is on Hulu! Bout time, not that this series would fly in today's world; but every police;/ law drama is based off of this all time great shows.
-
Maybe I heard it wrong, several coaches including the head coach, two players this week plus the 4 or five from last week... So first it was the drive, then the fumble, now it will be the pandemic.....
-
Browns are screwed, 8-9 players, head coach all under covid restrictions, coach and several players not eligible for the playoff game. What can the league do? Postpone? Is that fair to the other playoff teams? Have the game played, is that fair to the Browns? Oh what a mess we are starting to make....
-
Yep, they landed two great pass rushers in back to back drafts betwen him and Young. But they won't be able to keep em both. I don't think there is a pass rusher like either of them from the start or worth a first round pick. Look at Jones from Pit or Rousaeu from Miami, both are tall, rangy, good burst/quickness, but they need to develop more moves and better hand placement, along with strength to hold the edge. Even Oweh from PSU has alot of potential but isn't worth the risk in the first round. Should be interesting
-
Nice, from a football fan point of view. Some hall of fame to be qbs come to town. Not gonna be an easy road from this year's point of view.. https://ravenswire.usatoday.com/gallery/baltimore-ravens-2021-schedule-opponents/amp/ Home Kansas City Chiefs – Indianapolis Colts Los Angeles Chargers – Green Bay Packers – Minnesota Vikings- Cincinnati Bengals- Pittsburgh Steelers – Cleveland Browns- Away Las Vegas Raiders- Pittsburgh Steelers – Cleveland Browns- Cincinnati Bengals- Denver Broncos – Chicago Bears – Detroit Lions – Miami Dolphins –

Texans have a great pasing game, that is the key.
-
I have no idea which team will come out victorious, will the Ravens try to outsmart themselves? Will they put too much pressure on themselves? Or will they just relax & play, have fun, take each play as it comes? We shall see if the expected journey starts now..
-
Oh for sure they need a pass rusher, I just don't think there is one in the draft worth that pick in the first. They have shown that they caan find diamonds in the rough on defense, even edge rushers.
-
Turn the sound down, Espn has the horrible crew working the game
-
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
-
Great question, pro days I am sure will happen, they can quarantine, then get together. Combine, maybe, with a bubble, a lot depends on the vaccine
-
Yeah, they used to draft quantity, now they really need to draft quality, even if they only get 3 players from this draft. I know the cap is going to be tight, but to land a Pitts, or a D Smith from Bama who has really improved his hamds over the past two years. Rousseau from Miami is interesting, big, quick, but a one year wonder, makes a lot of plays because of his size, athleticism, rather than strength & talent for the next level. But he could be taught, and if he works at it, he could be the pass rusher this team has needed since Suggs..
-
So do the Ravens go for a big shot say at tight end out of Florida in the first round, or maybe a real pass rusher? Do they sit back, see who drops? There are a number of really good wideouts coming in this draft, but given the teams inability to draft them, should they give up? Do they trade back, build up picks for 2022?
-
It should be interesting to see what they do about the next draft. If college ball is indeed cancelled for this year, even if they some how stupidly play in the spring, what happens to the draft? Players may rise based on last year's play, while many will fall because they lacked the chance to gain the experience, thus improve their play not having another season to showcase....

A report just came out stating that 21 of the 22 horses killed as a result of injury sustained at the track had pre-existing conditions known to the equestrians though they "did not grasp the significance of major pre-existing lessions". Then they should be fired, really, they didn't think a bone lesssion would lead to a break? Give me a freaking break.... https://www.pasadenastarnews.com/2020/03/10/no-illegal-medications-found-in-states-investigation-into-horse-deaths-at-santa-anita/

2 more horses have died this week, at the Del-Mar track, 4 since Nov 6th. Now were I a conspiracy nut, I would say this was purposely a done to detract from that horrible Santa Rosa track. As I said in my other post, Del -Mar is suppose to be the safest track....hmmm
