The Wheaton prediction I'm more hopeful than confident in that one...67/740 doesn't look too difficult to surpass, but...Wheaton looks to be a more gifted player, but early on idk how much Ben will trust him in game situations...Sanders got over a 100 targets.

Maybe, but under pressure you do what is most comfortable...Flacco struggled without Pitta between the hash marks, and not having that big WR (Boldin) willing to go over the middle or sit in front of the LB/S zone gaps.

Smith will go over the middle, but best along the sidelines and he can still sneak and get deep...I expect BAL OFC to be very similar, but better...establish the run to make you respect playaction, challenge you deep with Torrey Smith and on 3rd down Pitta...Kubiak may effect the sequence of how they call the plays, but they won't be radically different.

You don't think so? I expect to see a lot more quick throws off short drops and some bootlegs off of play action. I don't think that Flacco will face as much pressure as he has in the past while waiting for receivers to get down field.

That was his MO in DEN so you can probably expect some of it, especially the short passes...but Schaub was somewhat of a stiff in terms of mobility as his Flacco...boots I would be a little surprised...BAL didn't draft any OL so that tells me they think the OL problems are solved...I think Rice & Pierce will be more active and draw those LBs up on playaction again and buy him that extra drop depth to go deep, or Smith crossing underneath.

You face a team so often...you know them and they know you...lol...Time will tell.
