No my argument holds true. It is the same thing. Grinding out the hard yds. Foster last yr in the playoffs didn't have to grind. He was runnig easy. By memory Benson only had 1 easy game running on the ravens. Most of the mine he is doing the dirty work.

No MJD last yr got the hard yds. He was not getting a very good RPC average toward the end but that clock kept going and the Ravens ran out of time to get back in.

So if after the season Williams is playing better than Smith and a business decision is in order you are for cutting/trading Smith? Just looking for you to confirm this is what you are saying.

Ok but he gets the hard yds that keeps that clock moving.

But Jimmy is being paid real money. Williams is getting OK money now. After this season He will be getting real money. So the Ravens can afford to pay Webb, Williams, and Smith all real moeny. It is called a salary cap and it makes it so people leave. JJ left but he was a very good LB. Everyone here was saying Grubbs was going to stay but last I knew he is in NO. It really just adding and subtraction.

What else do you see down there?

2008 0-2 2009 2-0 2 games 61 rushes for 237 yards 2010 1-1 2 games 44 rushes for 131 yards 2011 0-2 Looks like when they pound the rock against the Ravens he kills them.

But Jimmy will be better than Williams and Williams will be leaving for his payday elsewhere. They have 3 other CB's that are standing up now.

No that is smart planning. They don't want to pay an old player but will take a desperate team's draft pick.

But it is a player that they traded because the could not afford him in te long term.

No it would be like the Pats trading Richard Seymour for a 1st round pick. Oh that was already done.

I find it funny that the guy who has been the Raven killer doesn't play like a Raven. Even when Cincy has blwon he has been able to get his yds. I don't get why there is no interest in him. He is better than what the Jets have.

That was who it was.

So when Peyton got his ass kicked and blamed his OL for it he made them better? Same with Brady.

I saw someoneyesterday said they would cut Timmah.

Really that is great work. I am curious about the lack of mentioning the OL. Right now he is not working with his starter and there is movement all over the line. If they can't settle that then Joe can't shine.

I agree. But if they do go vet Benson is the best fit.

No but I can see them building for the future.

If the Saints come with an offer they can refuse I could see them making it. No team is capable of making a run every yr.

He is also a load.

Last yr was teh last best shot they had. Teams go from being in the playoffs to being used up all the time.
