He dances a little bit at the line of scrimmage and the bengals somehow figured him out. He is a solid rb, but not the second coming of jerome bettis sorry. I think the fact we use 3rbs has helped mcclain, especially when we run him as a fb, like the td run. I would like to see willis make more of an impact b/c I don't think mcclain can carry us to the super bowl by himself.

Agreed, Flacco looked lost throwing into that zone or maybe our wrs weren't open. Flacco has got to play better IMO next week, we had two good drives last night and the others were crappy. Need to start producing more first downs thru the air and then the run game should be better. Oline did pretty good in pass protection last night, run blocking was solid for the amount of people in the box.

The play worked but I mean it wasn't easy, I think if flacco would have deeked a little more those ends would have collapsed which really would have sprung willis.

mcgahee looked like he hadn't played all yr, very rusty. However, were going to need him to come back strong especially next week. I love mcclain but eventually teams are going to figure him out .

Totally agree bmw, he has great speed to keep with wrs, but he has some stone hands.

I don't think flacco has the arm strength on the deep balls as much as people think. That one to clayton today, where he got tangled up, he fell down and got up and still could have caught it. I mean he needs to throw that shit out in front. The td to Demetrius williams he underthrew too.

He is 1-0 at home and against the steelers, so eat it hater!!!

wow he bout fucked that up....but hell yeah

Why does flacco play so poor at home? I see no difference between him and boller out there tonight.

I know right, hold onto the freaking ball.

We look pathetic out there. Our d has played good but its not like the skins have a great offense. This should be a blowout, flacco is playing like a rookie and our playcalling is shitty and conservative. We play like this next week, be a blowout.

I'd like to get laurinitis or even beanie wells. Wr wise maclin looks great from what ive seen

I don't know why everyone is so confident in flacco being able to beat the secondary deep. Clayton made two great catches last week and if not that game was totally different. Will he do this on a consistent basis? He hasn't so far in his nfl career. I'm worried that the redskins wrs are going to jump those curl routes that we always run with mason. Those are all about timing and if timing is off that could spell trouble. Hopefully we will be able to run the ball tonight. I'm just very nervous about this game: primetime, playoffs hang in the balance for BOTH teams. GO RAVENS!!

Before this season I thought scott was all talk, but I think he has been pretty good this yr. He is quick and makes alot of great plays at the line of scrimmage. His sacks have diminished and he has problems covering the rb out of the backfield, but I would like to sign him. He will prolly ask for more than we can give and ray is way more valuable than scott IMO.

Sounds to me that he can play but he rather him rest some aching injuries that he has had this yr. I don't mind it just really fucks up my fantasy team.

b/c it was the bengals and they were on the field for 38 minutes. I've seen our line control the 4th qrt a few times this yr when everyone knows were running. I just thought I would see a bigger push, pass blocking was ok, still think our wrs don't get open alot. Flacco looks for mason SOOOO much, especially on third down, there were a few times where marcus smith and wilcox were open but he tried to force to mason. We dominated today against a terrible team, but I just feel like were still missing something out there. I wasn't really happy with 13-3 at half considering the field position we had and the TOP, against good teams we have to make them pay. I think this is the reason why we havent beat a playoff team yet, we play solid, but our offenses stall and we don't get the pts we should. Or we let teams hang around, until our D or ST make a mistake.

Gaither is a freaking stud..... He has been playing banged up this yr and still played solid. Totally forgot about Ogden retiring. He got rolled up pretty bad today it was nice to see him come back out a play later, looked alot worse. I think the ravens run game is missing yanda, but we find ourselve a young rt, our line will be set for yrs. Gaither, Grubbs, Brown, Yanda, Terry.... Terry is solid but is injury prone need to find some young talent, chester has played surprisingly well but he still gets pushed back alot.

I'm a little worrie about our run blocking. I know i'm nit picking here, but I didn't see the push I thought I would see. They were stacking the box the whole game, I was saying early in the first qrt to my bengal g/f that we had to throw the ball deep on the single coverage. great game though and continue to take care of business.

Well the weather here in cincinnati can be summed up by one word....SHITTY!!!! Hopefully flacco is better in the rain than boller was or an upset could be brewing. 45 and raining and muddy, as day progresses could turn into snow with the temp dropping. Def need to get the running game going in this one. hopefully the streak of me going to losing games gets reversed today. PS sorry for the crappy post----- 7 beers deep

Lets just control what we can control and that is us.....If we keep winning we will be fine.

You said two players emerge while he is hurt. Ok, but now that he is supposedly not hurt he can't reclaim his spot b/c he has been sucking ass and two cheap backs are looking better. The pt is we pay him to be a #1 back, it's time that he starts owning up to it.

wilcox gets injured everytime he is on the field. We are one or two skill players away from having a great offense.

Who is going to the game? I will be there and if you want to go. Get on ebay really cheap tickets.

we take care of business next weekend, we will be sitting pretty. NE and Pitt play each other so a gain either way for us.

What is up with willis? Either the line doesn't block for him or he just sucks. I really thought he would be a solid rb here in baltimore, I guess that was wishful thinking. what is everyone's thoughts on willis?
