Nice call Spiro,, even my dead dog could see it was a holding penalty

perfect,,,, Kub's offfense is still perfectly predictable........... gonna be a long season.........

never thought I would say this; but this defense is STOOPID!

hey spiro, that is their 3rd time out... keep up son....

unreal, it takes 8 people to make a tackle

Adding Smith was not going to help the receivers who struggle with press coverage........ nothing has changed so far..........

Make up call for the play bfore

Nope, right call, no reason to jump on late. horrible no calls on the defensive holding being done by the Bengal secondary...

They are good, it is their offensive coordinator who stinks, choking when he gets into the red zone, trying to be cute.....

Oh wow, 10 mins left in the half and the announcers finally mention the Ravens offense has started each drive well inside its own territory....

Ravens look slow, Bengals look fast, both on offense & defense. Bengals receivers are wide open, Ravens receivers can't get seperation. Ravens 2ndary still can't cover, Bengals can.... Oh and these two chuckle heads calling the game for CBS are terrible........ Joe has had to throw the ball away more than being off target..... But yes, one bright spot the front line looks good, now if the defense could only tackle................

It is my belief, and I stated then, that Sams only came out for the publicty, to try and force a higher draft status. His combine and personal work outs showed he should not be drafted. My belief was raised higher by the news that before the draft, he inked a deal with Opie for a tv show...... Before the work outs, he was a likely 3rd- 4th round pick. Then they saw how slow he was, how unathletic he was at his work outs. His height, weight, strenght and arm length all = average at best.

Sams was and currently is ona team now, your point? The Rams, as I said, spent months with him and aaw no further potential. In the cases I sites, those players were drafted higher because they have longer college careers, more body of work. In Bos's case, the roids caught up to hm, his body gave out.....

Sure, they, all teams, have average players. However, they obviously felt during the draft, that other players were a better fit for a variety of reasons. Did some teams not want him because he is gay? Who are we to say yes or no, we cannot know the mind nor heart of some one. He did not magically become horrid, he made his name in college, ONE YEAR, in a few games against poor teams. Look at his game stats, you will see this to be true. Most people will look at Suggs's stats for last year and think he had a good year. Yet anyone who watched the games knows, he only truly had a few good games and then was non-existant in most of the others for a variety of reasons. I can show you a number of examples of "great" college players who turned out to be turds in the NFL, one of them a two time heisman winner, we can start with him, Archie Griffith. Another, a monster in the middle of a defense, won every award for defense allowed, Brian Bosworth. Those are just two examples and neither is gay, neither is a quarterback, which has long list of great college careers, only to be duds in the NFL.

What facts? I gave you facts, not some stats any one can use to make any, any point. There are some things that can be coached, other thins can not. Just as in college, when he went up against good talent, he did nothing. Only when he faced below average talent, did he get his numbers. So just why would a team chose to take a one dimensional player and put him on their practice squad when they already have at least one of the same type player? Oh, just because he is gay, right? Just to "prove" what? That his sexuality doesn't matter? If they want to be treated as everyone else, how does giving them specal treatment make them the same? 31 teams saw exactly what I said about him, the Rams thought they could get more out of him by taking him in the 7th. Obviously they realized through months of training ith him, tha what you saw is what you get; an average at best player with little to no upside.

No, it would be a terrible move for Smith to challenge the suspensions. If they can retro the new policy for drugs, there-by getting the suspensions lowered, guess what? The NFL can step up and retro the new Domestic Violence policy, there-by enacting the new suspension rules for first time offenders, meaning, Rice would be out 6 games...... Can't have your cake & eat it too...... But I do like the changes, although I do not agree that off season PED use is not of benefit to the athlet. Jeepers, that is when the PEd use is of most affective for them to build mass..... Quite the slippery slope... And Gordon, as we have discussed, was not suspended just for his test result, but for his choices of being around pot heads using in his presence and his inability to see how wrong of a choice that was/is.....

Just what makes you think the team did not explore every avenue? as Grubber said -- http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/ravens/ravens-insider/bal-ravens-sign-josh-bynes-to-practice-squad-cut-aj-pataialii-20140904,0,2628491.story?track=rss

He had me on his side up until he said: "some one might have slipped something in my drink." when ever I hear that I hav to laugh a little. How does one leave their drink alone now adays, let a lone some one with so much to lose....... I'm not buying it......

Eh,a good trade off for him, Rob is one of the better defensive coaches both in game planning and training young players. So he gets great, paid training and only has to feed Jerry's pockets with shirt sales. All those smart people who ran out to get a Sams Rams jerseys now will run out to get Cowboy ones.... Brilliant at what, $75-$150 per.......

This is likely one of those: "we are releasing you for a few weeks, go on vaccation and leave your phone at home:, type moves. They will have to release a player when Rice gets back and then again when the suspension is up for the safety, and maybe again if Cody comes back..... This was they do not have to guarantee his contract for the year.

Josh Brent got 10 games, granted, some one died when he crashed, but owners, according to the league, are held to higher standards.... meh

For amphetamines,,,,,,, FYI fantasy owners.....

I hope it works out for him. The Boys are one of the few teams that run a 4-3 and are in serious need of depth. If he can't make it there, he can't make it anywhere. People are up in arms over the fact he has not been signed yet, blaming it on his sexual orientation, yet they fail to see that only 15 or so teams run a 4-3, only a hndful of those have a need for a defensive end, and he is only a fit for that type of defense.

I'll take the Bengals, give the points for 50 large, Marv. This may be close for 10 minutes, but not for long.... Dalton is an excellant regular seson quarterback and they are very healthy on offense.

Leave it to crav, Goody went easy on him.......... why am I not shocked........... yet they claim this ws the max they could give him.......
