Pretty neat!

It's going to be a long 6 weeks before TC starts...damn!

Will never forget that play or the Mile High Miracle!

The guy is definitely sick and either can't or doesn't want to do the work at rehab to be a better person.

Whatever future he may still have had a sliver of hope for is now gone for good. What a jerk, to put it civilly.

Very interesting. Glad to see us in the middle. The Browns and Dolphins keep digging deeper.

Well it's quite possible that it will be more than a one year fix. But it's just as possible that the new coaching staff makes an order of magnitude difference. Time will tell.

I agree that you can't definitely say Stanley will make it through another season with that ankle-lower leg issue, but somehow he played through it last year and while he wasn't the Stanley of old, he was satisfactory. He might suffice again though of course I'd prefer a longer term more sound solution. But it's hard to replace your starting LT, LG, C, RG, & RT while bolstering your defensive line along with it. We'll have to depend on coaching for making improvements this year. I think good coaching can get the O-line to be respectable but with the talent that's there I don't expect it to be dominant.

I'm pretty confident that Rosengarten will be a competent tackle from now on. I think Stanley's got just about enough gas for one more satisfactory year and Vega will be an outstanding guard. The vet they brought back for RG will do OK. Pinter or Bullock will step up to be average centers. I think a C+ is the overall grade I'd give the O-line as long as they're all healthy. We also have Emery as a rotational lineman, Admittedly, I'm putting a lot of faith in the new O-line coach...he's just gotta be better than who we had last year (doesn't he?).

The players like his approach and I think it's important that he says "...but Doyle is adjusting his approach to the Ravens' personnel". You have to fit the scheme to the personnel you have on hand and not try to pound a square peg into a round hole. That said, I'm looking forward to the new exciting offense. I think, from what I've read, the younger players especially are getting a charge out of it.

I got a feeling AJ will still find something to bitch and carry on about. Myles is not like that.

Yeah, it's crazy. At least the Rams are getting a superman of a player. But the Pats must be out of their minds.

Ray Berry, former star receiver for the Baltimore Colts has died. I believe he's the last 'star' of that team to go. All-Pro and Hall of Famer. Not too shabby for a guy with poor vision, a lame back, and one leg longer than the other... https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/raymond-berry-dies-baltimore-colts-wide-receiver-hall-of-famer

It's probably best to not to get too optimistic about this. We should plan on not having him. That way, if it turns out he can, it'll be a real nice surprise.

He should learn more about coverages since he’ll be practicing everyday against them in camp and OTAs.

OK...if you're trying to get me psyched up about the upcoming season, well, you're succeeding!! Looking forward to when the pads come on.

Well he obviously loves her and, like most celebrities, wants to have her privacy protected. He is himself a very private NFL star. A lot could be going on in the background that we'll never know about. Or have the right to know about.

While I do think it's best for the team when he's there, if he is really fighting some family issues, it is understandable when he isn't around. Might be best for Lamar to open up, a little, about what's going on. Details not needed.

Right 'tis just practice but he looks fluid with good hands. Anxious to see him up against some competition. Only 9 weeks until August pre-season games.

Well, they all looked locked in and not bored, for sure. Did see some really nice pattern runs. Flowers can cut so quick, it's unreal.

Minter is an innovator.

Depending on how far back we want to go, the Colts-Bills game in 1975 when Bert Jones had his breakout game is one I'll always remember. We were down 28-7 to OJ and the Bills before Jones came storming back to win the game. We were 1-4 at the time and with that victory we reeled off 9 straight wins to take the division title.

Well that would be a valid reason to not be there. I think Lamar has done very well at keeping his private life 'private'. That might hurt him with the public and the media, but it would definitely be understandable. I don't think it's a necessity for football players and other celebrities to involve their personal lives in public.

Lamar should have been there.

Interesting reading on our ease of schedule. A break for the new coaches and schemes: https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/ravens-schedule-release-biggest-winners-late-for-work-ota-storylines-top-games
