Wow, what a game! The team controlled the entire first half. The only pts for the Titans, a field goal came thanks to a terrible pi on Williams who has a right to stand his ground and go for the ball. Just as Gene, I can fit a playing card in here Testatore said. Lamar missed a a couple chances in the red, red zone first not seeing Andrews open for 6, instead throwing it away. Another red, red zone chance in the first half had Lamar on a qb keeper, had he been patient, the inside run was open for 6, but he got impatient and ran outside. The result, more Tucker who kicked not one but 6 field goals. The refs, either let them play or call it for both teams. This illegal touching is a legit call, but the Titans were guilty of it too. Only one call for the Ravens and five or so for the Titans is not good at all. In facts, all of the Titans points came thanks to these over blown calls. The defense for the Ravens, wow, what pressure on Tanneoverthehill, Clowny and VanNoy were renting time in the pocket, Good to see them both finally get a couple of sacks, in the 4th quarter!!!! Madebeke, Jones, Pierce as well. That roughing on him was bogus, he pulled off as best he could, that was a sympathy flag. Lamar, yes, he wad great even with the two misses in the first quarter. That movement in the pocket, finding Flowers for 6, Andrews for 40, Obj with a catch and run for 40, is what we have waited for! That puck, on him or Bateman, who gave a half hearted attempt at catching it, we will never know whose fault it was. Special teams, outstanding, coverage, that huge return to keep momentum going in the first half! But another blocked kick, on a pat, they have to fix that. All in all, I thought they might blow the lead, the win the way they played in the 3rd quarter, but they brought it in the 4th to finish the Titans off, despite the officials. On to the Lions, I wish they had taken the bye week, but at least it is at home. Stone makes another great pick to thwart a comeback attempt. Williams would have had one too is he could use his left arm....

Yeah, I hate the London games, they are worse than Thusday night games as fsr as normal play from both teams. I will be recording this one, it airs during my church time. I have no expectations for this game. Being back at full strength is great, but they are in London...

Funny, players complaining about the turf now adays. Less injuries back in the day playing on far worse turf. Maybe if they practiced more there would be less injuries

https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/injury-report-ravens-titans-london-good-health-moses-beckham-mekari-week-6-2023 The Ravens are in their best health of the year going into Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The only player Baltimore ruled out for the game is outside linebacker Odafe Oweh, who didn't practice this week as he continues to rehab from an ankle injury. Offensive tackles Morgan Moses (shoulder) and Patrick Mekari (illness/chest) both had full practices this week and have come off the injury report. Baltimore will have its full offensive line. "We're close to full strength," Head Coach John Harbaugh said. "That's big." Moses missed his first game since his rookie season last week in Pittsburgh, snapping a streak of 134 straight games played. Then Mekari went down midway through the game, pushing Daniel Faalele into action. Moses has been playing at a high level this season and his return will pay big dividends for an offense looking to bounce back after scoring just 10 points last week

Yeah, I don't understand why they went for the deal. Two good runners, on cheap deals, makes little sense. Even if they get a low draft pick or let hom walk and get a 4th round comp pick would have been better.

Good to see you back VA! Say, what happened? You use to be a cheery one, sunshine and unicorns, has Harbs and the time away soured you?

This will be a tough one for sure. If it was here, at home, I would say the Ravens bounce back and put a whoop'n on the Titans. However.... One thing the struggling Titans can do is run the ball with Henry. Three years ago they ran his tires off, 28 times for 133 yards, me thinks they will try that again. One thing the Ravens defense has shown is an inability to hold the edge, mostly early in games. They seem to toughen up as the game goes on. In 3 games, Henry has averaged 4.2 yards per carry against the Ravens. That has to change. Passing, however, the Titans have struggled, thrown five picks, averaging just 7.4 yards per attempt, largely because they can't protect Tannioverthehill, (63% complete) given up 17 sacks so far this year, 186 yards passing per game. They have only scored 7 touchdowns this season, 5 by rush, 2 pass. This is the area the Ravens have to dominate, pressures, sacks, picks. Their defense is not very good, but not horrible either. They have 13 sacks on the season, giving up almost 39% on 3rd downs, They have given up 5 tds in the air, allowing 240 yards per game. Moses is expected back along with Mercari, so the line should be fine. The Titans are giving up 94 yards per game on the ground, pound them, something that they should have done to the Steelers in the 2nd half. You can run the rush legs off of their pass rushers, take the starch out of their blitzes. If the team can stop Henry they can win this thing. If they get caught up trying to prove that last week was a blip and the last trip to London an aberration, they may repeat both....

It's not the Roman offense. There have been plays designed to go down field. But, either Lamar has been unwilling to throw, or he has not had time, or, he had over thrown. In the Pit game, one series he had Andrews in the flat on a 3rd and 8. He had Obj on the right side doing a curl, Flowers on the left doing a curl, and Bateman between then doing the same. The defense was in a cover 3, safeties back. Flowers and Bateman were wide open, but Lamar dumps it down to Andrews who fights for a first down. Hit either Flowers or Bateman, it is at least 15 yards. Another series, the same personnel, same routes save one; Flowers, he is on a skinny post, a stop & go. It worked, he is splitting the safeties, one of whom bit on the stop and go, wide open down the seam, Lamar has time, but choses to check it down to Obj for a short gain. They ran a similar set up later, Lamar did throw the ball but Flowers was on a over route, Lamar threw the ball to the deep middle expecting Flowers to take his route toward the endzone, rather than the sideline. Flowers fell trying to adjust to the badly thrown ball. Who was right? We will never know. These are just a few plays that; Roman never never ran and 2) Lamar chose not to throw or missed badly. Receivers are open, the timing is a bit off with blocking, losing Mecari really hurt, the big first year right tackle was horrible. I found it interesting that Lamar, who championed not wearing a wrist band, wore one for the entire game. This game just snow balled on them, the receivers lost focus, tried too hard and boom, drop passes like Kim K drops men. But Lamar, a supposed good leader, should not have lost "hope". He really looked apethic in the later part of the first half and the rest of the game.

Let's hope that they "get out of the quick sand", where when everything is going right then suddenly it all goes wrong, and you realize that you're in over your head, like quick sand" Shane Falco "Coach, I look like I jacked off an elephant" Yes, bring back the stick-em for the receivers if need be...
-
Good thing the site was down, after that apathetic effort, not sure I would want my expletives captured for all eternity. Missed opportunities, carelessness, lack of accountability. Another slobber knocker awaits against a team the Ravens should dominate... Thanks Dee, for all you do for us! At least we can count on you!
-
Per Shefty So, so much for a trade, one has to wonder why this took so long? Was this the deal they offered earlier this year?
-
Im with ya, Bateman will be back as well, Humphries and Williams should be back as well! Pit will be without 5 starters, 2 on the offensive line and their top tight end as well as their punter... Pit defense is one of the worst against the pass, so you can bet they will blitz a lot and then try to run the ball to control the clock, protect their young qb and banged up line
-
He might be on a pitch count, but Obj will be in da houz....
-
Looks like Picket will start, but will he finish
-
Here ya go buddy, the home site for the team https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/humphrey-beckham-injury-report-bateman-return-practice-ravens-steelers-week-5 Also mentioned today, Moses was back on the field, Stanley said he should be suited up Sunday, though no mention of play. Also, Bowser said he is really close to returning to practice, feeling great with his work outs on the side fields, not in pads. Shouldn't be long before this team is full stocked.
-
Saw the video with some of the guys returning to practice. Obj looked solid, Humphries, maybe I was just seeing something that wasn't there but he appeared to walk a bit gingerly after a drill. Don't rush these guys back.... Haven't seen anything about Stanley....
-
Well, Tomlin might step out on the field to prevent, this time, Flowers from going on anlomg touchdown run. That defense might need him too the way they have been getting gutted. As Dee said, these games almost always seem to be a slobber knocker. Worst yet is the trip over seas awaiting the Ravens Monday morning, so let us hope their minds are focused and the line blocks better. Because Watt has taken flak for not producing more and with Moses likely out,that could spell trouble.
-
Maybe, it is just a bone bruise, so Picket may try to play.
-
I thought for the limited snaps that Van Noy played extremely well With him and the way Clowney is playing, like a man possessed, I think the pass rush is going to be very good as we move forward. Get a few guys back in the secondary and look out...

I've heard horror stories about the streaming services...

Yeah, a div win, a Pit & Cinci loss, a great day for Ravens fans

Denver now up 31-28 over the Bears after being down 14+ Pit down 29-6 to the Texans Hand off up the middle for 3 To the right this time, loss of 2, 3rd down 9 under 5 mins Pass batted down by Urban, 4th down Indi has come all the way back against the Rams to tie it up Huge punt, out kicks his coverage, Duv returns it to the 35. Huntley in, hand off to Flowers, loss of 6, Inside 4 mins Huntely keeps it, gain of 2 3rd and 14 Inside of 3, Huntely back to pass, decides to run, gain of 4, 4th down, coming up on the 2 min warning...

Pass over the middle for 9 10:20 left Pass to the right side, 3 yard gain, first down Pass to the right, throws it out of bounds, 2nd and 10 Denver had a huge come-back, all knotted with Chicago at 28. Illegal shift after another incomplete pass, declined 3rd and 10 Pass deep middle, no one there but Stone for the pick! 1st down Ravens, pads was way over thrown From their 42 Inside hand off for Gus for 4 yards 9 mins left Same play for a loss of 2, 3rd down 9 This is pathetic Lamar avoids a sack, dumps it down to Richard for a 1st down!
