I just hope Lamar is well.
-
Yeah, I agree that one was the most heartbreaking loss for the Ravens.
-
It isn't guaranteed to be anywhere near 100% effective but getting a flu shot is better than nothing. I still feel negative about Sunday's game. I'd like to see us come out with our hair on fire for that game and the rest of the season.
-
I'll buy but the breakdowns in the secondary just have to get fixed immediately.
-
Geez...let's hope it's not Covid 'illnesses'!
-
Glad Bell is gone but I still don't have good feelings about this team right now. How can you in a worst-to-worst league (by the way, Mikey stole my line for today's column!)? I have very little confidence that we have figured anything out since Miami. Our coaching and talent are shaky right now and the whole team reflects it. Right at the moment I"d have to say Bears 24 Ravens 20 with our secondary still in full throttle breakdown mode.
-
Bateman continues to impress and looks like the real deal: a number one receiver for us finally! Greg Roman better come up with an offense to deal with cover 0 with db's coming on every pass play 'cause we're gonna see a whole lot more of it. The game was a nightmare in slow motion. Guys looked too tired by the 2nd quarter. I can give them a pass on this game but no more passes from here on out.
-
Yeah we’re asleep tonight. Low energy after that first drive. If we don’t find some energy in the next half we’ll lose.
-
I'm buying but I'm not maxing out my credit card yet. Really want to see the running game pick up and begin to help carry the team like it did last week. I'd run Vonta Freeman and Bell about equally in number of carries. Hoping Latavius makes it back next week.
-
Yeah...keep Watkins on the bench. We'll need him more down the stretch. Who knows who wins in this damned weak-to-weak conference???
-
Cleveland returned to practice today and Nick Boyle is game ready according to the Ravens' website. The day is coming, hopefully soon, when Latavius Murray and Sammy Watkins return too though I don't expect that to happen on this short week for sure. Considering all the first line talent that has been lost to injury, it's hard to believe we're 6-2. And by the way, Max, you are right...Harbs and company took a gigantic risk in drafting Lamar and then centering the offense all around him. He leads and wins. What more can you ask for after the risk they took and the injuries we've sustained?
-
Another win...another Tucker FG with time expiring, this time in OT. I felt we should have played better early but can't fault the outcome. Go Ravens!!
-
Lamar is taking too many punches---hard ones too. We need to somehow protect him better and revive the running attack with the running backs. He won't be able to do it all without getting hurt. He's been carrying the whole offense on his back.
-
No doesn't sound good for sure but lets wait and see who's practicing Thursday.
-
Geez...I hate so much to see the old guys go. A lot of them stayed here after their careers were over and you don't see much of that anymore.
-
He definitely looked uncomfortable playing left tackle the other night.
-
I take Harbs comments with a grain of salt because I think he's just trying to confuse the Vikings as to what to expect. We won't know more until they release the weekly injury report.
-
Yep...just like Harbs said. It's a weak-to-weak league!
-
Agree, Max. and it kind of starts tomorrow with the Steeler-Browns game at 1pm. Anytime 2 rivals go at each other it'll be to our advantage. I'll be watching that game!
-
It ain't over until it's over but you gotta feel that the season died with all the injuries before it ever got really started. I think we win the next three but I don't see us running the table for sure. We'll be lucky to make the playoffs where we will be one and done. JK Dobbins, Gus, Stanley, Marcus, et. al., would have made a huge difference this season. All we can really do at this point is hope they come back next year without their talents being diminished due to the injuries they had. I've been comforting myself by remembering Jamal Lewis tore his ACL early in his career and came all the way back. Meanwhile I look to our passing offense as the one bright spot. Brown, Bateman, and Watkins & Andrews are a pretty formidable group and if Lamar continues to progress as a passer like he has been we should have a dynamite year next year.
-
The defense put a lot heat on early on just about every play but couldn;t sack Burrows. This resulted in them being tired out by the 3rd quarter. Besides the fact Humphrey had a bad day.
-
And they really need to keep Lamar healthy.
-
Yep, it's ridiculous to have to try and overcome all that. We'll be good enough to beat most mediocre teams but I don't see how they can compete with the Browns and Bengals until next season.
-
Absolutely right! But that won’t happen until next season unfortunately.
