13 points will not get it done from here on out.

We know it. The Ravens know it and their opponents know it.

 

The Ravens played a top 10 defense last night and one thing that I saw is the league catching up to their running game. 159 yards rushing is good by league standards yet not so good when this is a major part of your offense. 4.5 ypa.

They bog down in the redzone.

I love Tucker but you can't defeat the excellent teams with 3's instead of 7's. Especially when you turn the ball over every game. This is not the 2000 Ravens D. 10.3 points will not be enough.

 

This has to be cleaned up in a hurry and adjustments made.

I think adjustments need to happen in the offseason. Lamar needs a great deal of study time.

[oldno82]

Lamar has enough talent and temperament to be coached on how to handle this.

[papasmurfbell]

He has so much to learn. He needs to read defenses better.

Yea...Lamar has to learn so much, in so little time, and he's been doing a great job at that.

 

Really...what Weddle says here tells the truth and the story for this season and what remains ahead...

 

The combination of the ever reliable, punishing defense, and a Ravens offense that not only can run, but showed Saturday it can also pass, makes this team dangerous -- and one that is peaking at the perfect time.

"Honestly, why not? What do we do? We play great defense," Ravens safety Eric Weddle said when asked if his team could reach the Super Bowl. "We control the ball on offense. We play great special teams. Why can't you win playoff football? That's the ingredients to win. Anyone has a chance. If we get in the tournament, we have as a good a shot as anybody.

"I know for a fact no wants to see us. I know that."
