  1. Hey, everyone! It's Ron (fka "Heeeeeap"). Just remember, teams are only making "vanilla" play calls, so no worries if we lose this game 38-10.

     

    With that said, excited to see how the Center battle shapes off. The winner will make for a solid starter.

     

    We seem to have a quality secondary, and a markedly improved D this time around.

     

    Perhaps most critically, we need to figure out who's gonna catch the ball! We know guys like Rice, Torrey, and Jacoby will catch the ball, but who else? Who makes up for the loss of Boldin and Pitta??

     

    EDIT: Only cause for concern: injuries! We've already had enough...

  2. Cundiff is on fire. He has been a pleasant surprise so far. I had forgotten what touch backs looked like for the Ravens until this season.

     

    Amazing how we had a kick-off specialist for YEARS (along w/ Stover); none of those guys could reach the endzone with consistency. Cundiff is doing yeoman's work.

  3. I am blown away by this.

     

    Savor the fact that, assuming health all around, we're going to have a 4 WR formation later this year w/ Mason, Boldin, TJ Housh, and Donte Stallworth.

     

    EDIT: of course I'm the idiot that forgets Clayton.

     

    Who has the corners to cover that?!

     

    And a one year deal at the vet minimum? Just wow...

     

    Very good times.

  4. Very encouraging night for the starters. I think it's time to yank them and figure out who's gonna be out 6th safety or 8th wide receiver! (I might be exaggerating when I say "6th" or "8th", but you knew that.)

  5. How about Joe Flacco having 19% of his completed passes going to Steelers. Come on yea there was a 25 yard penalty that backed us up but, the fact that flacco can't get 150 yards or a TD is just pathetic. That's an easy number to reach when your offensive line is giving you all sorts of time and you get 30+ attempts.

     

    Frankly, it's easy for the Steelers to assess our WR's, know that they must double up on Mason, and single cover Clayton, and be effective. I'll be blunt. Mason is fine, but we need better WR's... at least someone other than Mason to have on the field.

     

    Flacco didn't have his best night, but I'm not so sure that he was pathetic. He only has so much talent at WR to work with.

     

    I'm thrilled with Flacco, and he did all of this as a rookie. Has any other rookie QB won two playoff games? Flacco will be fine.

  6. Am I in denial or why is it that I keep thinking there's no way Suggs will miss this game and that the Ravens are putting on some gamesmanship involving Suggs?

     

    Now Rolle, he may not be the player he once was, but I really worry if Rolle can't go. I don't see Frank Walker covering the Steelers #2 receiver very effectively. Groin injuries linger, so I can't imagine Rolle just being able to play very effectively, no matter how much they tape him up!
