Re: The Ravens approached the offense the wrong way.
LB, you want to handle this before I go on a tear about QB contracts as of late and performance, or even Ray Rice....

Re: The Ravens approached the offense the wrong way.
Of course its a crazy theory. There is no logical reason why they would want to sabotaging the team success in order to lessen Joe's contract value. I'm just reaching for shit on why the have kept Cam this whole time, when its obvious that many of the key downfalls of the offense (WR separation, OL protection, Joe's accuracy on the road) still exist no matter what more talented player/s are newly inserted. I guess the Ravens and Harbs truly believe Cam's weekly pass the blame onto the players excuse of Lack of Execution. Its frustrating b/c there arent any answers on whether Joe will developing into that Top 5 in the NFL type QB or stay status quo. I'm a Ravens fan, so I'm hopefully and have faith he will, but I truly dont know, and that's due to him being in Cam's system. You can say that Brees and Rivers improved once they left the confines of Cam, so there is a trend.

By not playing him, they save money... even though most of us tend to think this team becomes better with McKinnie at LT. Yet the Ravens aren't even CONSIDERING it, and I think the money is the primary reason for that.
FWIW, I don't think the Ravens care about paying McKinnie $1M. They've got money to burn, so it's not the $1M in cash that they'd be worried about. If anything, it's about the $1M that would they would have count against next year's Cap that would be the issue.
That said, McKinnie is one big old unmotivated, lazy dude. IMO, you needn't look any further than that to know why he's not playing right now.

Is he more lazy than that guy called Jared??? :crazy:
Re: The Ravens approached the offense the wrong way.
Didn't notice that innovation last week? Tyrod Taylor running the wildcat for a huge gain of 4 yards to set up the winning score - IT CAN ONLY GET BETTER FROM HERE!

But that leash does not make it outside of the doghouse. :-)

Well, when Joe starts sucking as bad as Sanchez, we'll do our due diligence.
Re: The Ravens approached the offense the wrong way.
Again, Cam is from the Marty Schottenheimer tree. That is all that you need to know to figure out what's going on with him.

Well, you have been a supporter of Flacco. Let's make a deal. If the Ravens win the Super Bowl, if you make a thread apologizing to John Harbaugh, I will make one apologizing to Jacoby Jones.
