Returned for 6 yards

Check down, Wright can't hang on as he is belted making the catch

[tsylvester]

Low pass under pressure falls incomplete, approaching 2 min warning

Wright blasts up the middle for 6, 4th down

Wiggins has been impressive.  I dont ike the punt coverage team.

First preseason game, not bad for the offense in the first half considering they went up against the Iggles starting defense with a fly swatter.

One thing is clear, get this out of the way now. Johnson is done, no arm strength, no leg drive. Those were not back shoulder throws to the outside, they were dying ducks.

Even against the starters this rag tag group had opportunities, but Johnson just couldn't see the open men.

Let's hope a decent vet gets released and the Ravens can pick him up.

Yeah, the coverage units are a work in progress, as are the return teams. Too many missed tackles, out of position, missed lanes for return. But then these were mostly guys looking to make the practice squad, not the actual roster. 16-13, I'll take considering the Iggles played their starters for a half.

Cleveland seems to have finally found a position that he can play. Quick, accurate snaps, very well job moving people our of the middle. If Faalele can nail down the guard job, this could be a monster, deep line.

I will say it again, they went up against the starters of the Iggles, I thought the line as a whole was solid.

Sucks about Wiggins, is there a voo doo doll someone uses every year of Ravens cornerbacks?

Shoulder, ac joint, labrum, stinger?

Hopefully nothing serious

Wright looked really good, 7 carries, 35 yards, running hard, running through tackles, good blitz pick up. If he continues like this, he could be the 3 rb

Maybe trade for Heineki.  Atl is looking to unload him I hear.  They would eat most of his cap space.

I like that idea, all of the tools, can run the offense the way Lamar does so there would not be much change. I think he was rushed into playing which hurt his development. Make it so number 1

Agree about the ATL QB. Let's go get him, Eric!

Meanwhile our defense will be awesome again this year. Looking forward to when the real games start.

Hoping Wiggins is OK big time.

If they trade or release the veteran signal caller, they'll save $1.2 million in cap space while incurring $3.2 million in dead money, according to OverTheCap.
