Ravens 2-6 on 3rd down...losing TOP 16-13...Joe's got a 63 passer rating...neither team is running the ball...Britt owns the Ravens secondary...Ravens losing the turnover battle 2-1. One fans experience watching the Ravens 1st half...
I'll take the 3 vs turning it over. The recievers are covered, so don't take the chance. That late cheap shot hit on Joe should fire the Ravens up. 10-10...
From Pete Prisco's matchups to watch... Cool of Pete to notice Cody. Cody's play was overshadowed by Ngatas for obvious reasons but I when the two of then line up next to each other it's a center/guards nightmare. As Cody develops those two will be pocket collapsing fools. Something the Ravens have needed for a long time.
This hasn't been talked about but it is probably Joe's next biggest hurdle. The Titans play a 4-3 cover 2 and Joe has struggled against the cover 2. Now he has another monkey to get off his back so Sundays game will be a challenge. I see Hasselbeck giving the Ravens D more 'fits' than Johnson...if both get going it will be a long day.
Gorrer didn't look too bad in the pre season...but that was against 2's and 3's. Whatever...it's starting to get thin. It should be solid week 6 comming off the bye but that's 3 big games away. Hasselbeck, Bradford and Broadway Schmo comming up.
Morn'n 52! Yea...I saw that stat somewhere and took a double take because I thought the 3rd quarter was a weakness for the Ravens. Maybe the 3rd quarter is not so good for the offense. I'd like to see the defenses 4th quarter stats...they wilted a lot last year.
