Loads of poor tackling.

Colts scored on a 76 yd screen.

Another day to appreciate Justin Tucker!

Being a worrier, I am increasingly concerned Stanley may not make it back this year. Or, even, never.

That's on the mark.

Lets see what Preston has to say: " Even more impressive was that Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson delivered passes deep and outside the numbers, racking up more than 300 yards for only the second time during his four-year career. Jackson completed passes to five receivers and rushed for 28 yards on seven carries. It was a glimpse of the vision the Ravens had four years ago when they selected Jackson in the first round and then followed up with draft picks like Bateman, Dobbins, receivers Devin Duvernay, Marquise Brown and James Proche II and tight end Mark Andrews. The Ravens wanted to complement their top-ranked running game with an upgraded passing game that finished last in the league last season. They are on course."

That's the key.

I'm buying too. Now. I was selling after the Raiders game.

What we need most right now is for Ronnie Stanley to get well.

I really woukd hate to see Proche go. I agree we need to keep as many as possible especially with all the injuries to the backfield we'll need a really good passing attack. If Proche has to go I hope Eric can swing a deal for him so we get some type of compensation. I'm looking forward to Bateman getting some playing time when he's ready but at the moment our receivers are looking good. Real good.

Fangio can go fu*k himself!

With all the crap that has hit this team on injuries, I fully expected them to be 1-3 not 3-1. They have found a way to win each game and almost beat the undefeated Raiders. Lamar has grown as a quarterback. I think he's starting to think pass first, run second. That'll be good for his longevity. Still, though, he's taken too many hits and that has to be much reduced. All in all a great opening quarter to the season! I have really enjoyed watching this team. Oh, also, kudos to the coaching!

Lamar & Co. showed they can get it done even when they stuff the box. There was real progress today. Now time to stack wins like this as Harbs said tonight.

If he's gonna run he's got to do more to protect himself. Like Tsyl says: no more taking a shot to get one more yard. And, like you said Max, those hits add up.

I'm just glad to have him back in the fold. Hopefully, he gets a call-up.

Ravens re-signed RB McCrary to PS today.

This is one we were lucky to have but I figure it helps balance out all the damn injuries this team has had. We were ripe for a break and Tucker is the one who's hard work and dedication made it possible. Yes I did think it would be close. The Lions new coach will have them winning soon. He doesn't tolerate a down attitude just because they play in Detroit. Reminds me a bit of Lombardi. 66 1/2 yards! Just wow!!

I agree with you on the McCrary move. Sign him now and let Bell go.

Yep! That’s how I see it too.

Selling.

I'm buyin' on that one.

Gee! Mike Preston (??) to the rescue: https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/analysis/preston/bs-sp-mike-preston-ravens-fans-dont-panic-20210909-jqqbbasucrb4nmg7lhhrmyfpde-story.html

Top 5.

Tarkenton ran a lot when he was young but transformed into a very capable pocket quarterback. Same with Steve Young. Your body just ages, it's a fact of life. I don't think you can successfully being a running quarterback much beyond 4-5 years in the league.

That line says it all. They will go all out to knock him out of a game and the league if he becomes that scary. I remember years and years ago, John Unitas was hurt and the sub, a promising player, Gary Cuozzo was playing with a hurt shoulder. The Opposing Defensive Coach was yelling at his players 'Go after that shoulder!' Such is life in the NFL.
