Weird stat....

The Raven's WR's are sub-par. This is one of the biggest issues they have. No one can stretch the field. Evans was supposed to bring that, but he's been hurt all year long. Teams are going to start playing BOX defense and forcing the Ravens to beat them deep.

Also, how do you have Ray Rice and give him 8 rushes? That just is just ignorant.

Whoever called down to have them review if Flacco stepped out of bounds is a moron. That person should be fired.

They've had good receivers come and go. Last year they had a number of quick guys. This year they do have Boldin. I believe it's just Flacco isn't great at reading defenses, nor is he overly accurate. I like to refer to him as "checkdown" king. Ray Rice has always made him look a lot better than he actually is.

I agree. I've never been a fan. I was just simply quoting our resident Ravens fan.

Well, cravn does wear purple stained glasses.....he better hope Ray Lewis plays forever......of course it appears he might....

Lewis and Reed are what make that team tick. Once they retire teams will start to run the ball down their throats and beat them deep. Lewis controls that run D and without Ed back in centerfield teams won't be afraid to throw it deep on them. Suggs and Ngata are great but they won't impact a game like Lewis and Reed do.

I thought Ed Reed's career was over last night. When he was rolling on the ground with an apparent neck injury, I figured that was it. I remember him saying in the offseason that he didn't want to mess with his neck and didn't want to jeopardize his quality of life in retirement (not that I blame him). It was good to see it wasn't as serious as it looked when it first happened.

Greatest S in NFL history.

Flacco just isn't accurate. I think he's somewhere down around 50% completions on the year. He missed several passes last night that just weren't that close to the WR.

 

[Tubbs1518]

He blows. He is no better than JP Losman. Put Jamarcus Russell on that team with that D he can win some games too.

Nope. Not even Manning and Brady can say they've made the playoffs 4 straight years.
