Didn't see that one comming. He did inherit a very deep and solid team from Dungy that he HC'd to the Super Bowl....not like he turned it around there...but he did take them over the top that year.

Not from my couch. This is why defense and a solid running game wins championships.

He's been doping them up....

The Ravens corner situation is now weak and compromised....but it's not terrible. These guys can play. Better than last years group. Just go all out. Send the house at Rthslsxxbrrgrrr....nail him....hit him while throwing...force the bad throw...the INT. That's what the Stealers will try to do to Joe. I think the Ravens D can penetrate the Stealer O line better than the Stealer D penetrating the Ravens O line. We can win this one.

If the Ravens win Sunday then I don't want to see the Cards...not Bouldin and Fitzgerald vs the Ravens secondary...

I agree with you on Rolle. I think Suggs might be used on passing downs but he won't be able to shed run blocks. We might see some 4/3 cover 2 on Sunday...Rex might be forced into it. Washington, Walker, Ivy....geeez!

Hang in there crav...you know I'm with you.

Both are beasts. They'll get the job done.

Exzcellent point dc. I missed that. Plus Chris Johnson is a better runner than Wee Willie.

the rest of the joke goes like this... "...and Baltimore Mayor Shiela Dixon won't have to change her name from...stealer."

I love photos...that's from the Sun... I'm not the only one pointing out the weak Pitsburgh offense...

Maybe so...but we know who's waiting for him...

The media is all "shits and giggles" over the Stealers offense all because of what they did in one game against a soft Charger defense. Rthslxsbrggr's been sacked 46 times this year...that's the truth about his O line. This below average lot is not about to have a good day against the Ravens D. Rushing or pass protecting. The Stealer offense is...not good to tell the truth. 22nd. If they are going to score points Sunday, then the Ravens offense will have to help them by turning over the ball and putting them on a short field.

You don't stop until you hear the whistle. It's the refs fault. Johnson was trying to lunge forward, stretch out and gain another yard or two. Ed wasn't going to let him do that. Ed was perfectly right to continue trying to turn him back because no whistle had blown.

The Pittsburgh offense woke up against a shitty D. You can't use a soft team like the Chargers as a measuring stick. Try the Titans as a common opponent. A couple of weeks ago the Stealers only put up 14 points on the Titans while giving up 31.

I never heard Ray compare himself to Jesus.

You're right! Let's do it!"

I'm getting my concerns out early in the week. I just think this Ravens team is...exhausted. I read this from PFW and it jives with my current mood... Sometimes I have to look at the worst before I can find the good.

...You win!

In the last loss to the Stealers Joe was 11 for 28 for 115 yards. That's 39.3% completion rate.....and he had 0TD's and 2 INT's. Not good. He was a little bit better better in the first loss. 16 for 31 for 19 yards...51.6%...and 1 TD. Given the health of this team, their inability to run the ball against a good run defense Saturday and that they are facing an excellent run defense....Joe is the key if the Ravens hope to win. He has to make more than a few plays...he has to be a consistant thorn in the Stealers side for 4 quarters. Moving the chains rests on him. He has to "WIN" this game. The D is severely banged up. The secondary will be Reed, Washington, Walker and Leonard...with Ivy at nickle....minus pass rushing Suggs. All the Stealers have to do is protect the ball and that well dries up for the Ravens. My point is the Ravens must score points...a lot of them...to win. Joe has to take over....I don't know where else to look. Anyway you can do it Joe.

He reminds me of somebody who thinks their shit doesn't stink.

"OMG! A Frerotte/Grbac clone...we are doomed!"

I'm more concerned with what Leonard is going to do when Santanio Holmes streaks down his side of the field. Hopefully Washington is streaking right with him. BTW...Leonard is the only guy in the secondary who can tackle....that is a scary thought...what a team weakness.

That was great. The Knashville natives must have been freaking out. The information age just keeps expanding. 2000 wasn't that long ago, but there was no way to get easy internet access to all the videos that we see today.
