There goes the ravens running game

No more chop blocks of any kind.

Steelers running game has been missing for years. You guys should pass out flyers or something.

I'm not going to argue that one bit though the season before he got hurt mendy was playing well and scored something like 13 tds or so. Get ready to see some broken necks since runningbacks can't lower their head anymore. I just don't understand that one.

The RB rule is stupid and I hope the NFL doesn't implement it. This is all regards to the NE were Pollard cleaned the guys clock. Once again the Pats will get a rule in after something happens.

So, how did you come to the conclusion that we will have no run game? You implying we cheat?

The Ravens O line can road grade with or without the chop. They are not undersized sissy's.

The RB rule would have, technically, put the flag on the NE player - not Pollard. Not that I would ever expect the RB or offense to get the flag thrown on them, but Pollard was not at fault in that hit.

Because your scheme includes a bunch of legal chop blocks to open up the cut back lanes for rice. From everything I have seen the ravens use the chop more then any other team out there. It was legal so no it wasn't cheating.

This rule change doesn't mean squat. It will have no impact on the Ravens running game.

It's not the only blocking scheme the Ravens run.

Rice and Leach make it happen just as much. Nobody can find Rice behind that big O line.

In Steels defense I think our run game plan involves chops a lot more often when we face the Steelers, I definitely don't see it happen that often though overall.

They should get rid of all these dumb new rules.
