Ravens Underdogs To Broncos

[vmax]

44.9 win percentage.Shit! 

How are they going to pull off a win here?

The Broncos have the #1 defense for points surrendered at 8.7 per game! #2 defense for yards.

Oh wait! They haven't played a real football team yet.

I disagree with that.  

[cravnravn]

Ravens as a dog?? Love it. Also love the over 44 in this game.

[vmax]

Over 44 looks good. Ravens D can't stop anybody at the moment. They need Brandon Williams and Madabuke and learn how to tackle. The O will have to pile on points until this team gets healthy.

Press them at the los, Teddy is a timing qb. Their defense can be beat by seam routes, our big tight end should have a big game.... This should be fun, maybe Tuckeroo can get a 71 yarder in this thin high air....

[cravnravn]

Donkeys have beat the Jets, Giants and Jaguars...Lmao..

He is to young to understand the knowledge of a team.  I would not expect much of a scouting report from him.

[oldno82]

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

[papasmurfbell]

They are heavy at rb right now.

There's value in this.  His whole reason of choosing to come back was that he knew our system better.

[papasmurfbell]

Yeah.  But when they pump a guy for info it is for game plans.  He won't get what the plan of attach is.

[GrubberRaven]

Good news!

That is good news. I know Houston and Williams practiced today.

The Lions doubled and triple teamed Oweh so he has won respect. With Houston back teams can't do that. It's going to be fun watching Oweh learn and figure it out. The pass rush may materialize over the next few weeks.

Still a lot of players dinged up.

“Ravens had eight players not practicing Wednesday:

QB Lamar Jackson
WR Sammy Watkins
OT Ronnie Stanley (ankle)
OT Alejandro Villanueva
OLB Pernell McPhee
CB Tavon Young
S DeShon Elliott (quad)
DE Derek Wolfe (back/hip)”

Lamar was sore from Sundays beating.

[tsylvester]

Stanley may nof be back till mid season, if then..

The two lines should get better as the season goes on, my hope/thinking any how

[vmax]

What worries me is that Stanley might have a career ender. The wheels have to be excellent at LT or you get slaughtered. If he needs another surgery for a wild shot chance at getting close to where he was then get it now rather than 2-4 months from now. He was so good when he was healthy. Sad situation.

Lamar had decent time to throw...good sign of improvement. 

I do'nt t see any RB's othe than Williams and McCrary who can hit the line fast enough for this Ravens rushing offense to work. Hope I'm wrong.

[tsylvester]

Bell is closing in on game shape, the other two elder backs are starting to round into form.

Time is what this team needs, time together, working together, then they will round into form.

[vmax]

Yes. They need time and that's why Sundays win was so important...Chiefs win too. Currently anything can happen. They could lose in Denver. They have to keep winning now before the competition gets heavier to stay in the hunt.

“Ravens had 5 players not practicing Thursday:

QB Lamar Jackson (back)
OT Ronnie Stanley (ankle)
S DeShon Elliott (quad)
DE Derek Wolfe (back/hip)
NT Brandon Williams

Four players returned: OT Alejandro Villanueva, WR Sammy Watkins, CB Tavon Young and OLB Pernell McPhee https://t.co/8Lm1oemDwD”

Jackson should be the worry; "back flare up"?

Is it muscular, not serious, or mechanical, serious. If it's a disk acting up, that is surgery somewhere down the road.

Second straight week where he has missed days, work days putting in the game plan, not good.

He has taken more shots, as Espn points out, from running the ball, not from sacks... Again, this brings into question his decision making this year, which is clearly not good.

And, if I hear one more person say, excuse it away with; he is putting the team on his back" I am gonna smack someone. Taking on tacklers just to get one non-first down/touchdown yard is just stupid.

I am starting to not like a win this weekend.

 

[tsylvester]

Also, there must be a lot of false positives as far as covid, I've never seen so many people get over it so quickly, less than 2 weeks...

[vmax]

I am thinking similar thoughts. The mileage may be beginning to catch up with him. He's not super human 

And...I'm noticing that he is taking more shots, more hard hits trying to make plays.

And he was sacked 4 times. And his sack total for the year is high.

They reports are that it's not serious.
