Re: Bernard Scott
In theory.... In practice, every opponent since about week 4 has done the same damn thing--brought major pressure up the middle, pressed the WRs & dared Joe to beat them. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to predict that da Bears'll do likewise, since the Ravens OL has yet to show itself able to handle it. We can only hope they do so this week, but prior experience is not comforting...

Re: Bernard Scott
The real question is whether or not Harbaugh and the Ravens are really doing what Harbaugh said heading into the bye week -- "whatever it takes" to solve this team's problems. And each person is going to answer that question a little differently.

Re: Bernard Scott
Some of the PS inactives/desaparecidods make more sense to me. The FO is trying to milk the rookie contracts as long as they can for the likes of Furstenberg, Jensen, etc. Keeping prospects like that inactive prevents starting their service clocks, especially when they might not yet be ready to contribute. It's a sort of "redshirting" to increase eligible time under rookie contract and/or on practice squad.
But with our run game as weak as it is, I'd be tempted to see what Scott could do w/ a pitch or dump-off pass outside. Maybe even before Tyrod's next end-around...

Re: Bernard Scott
I could take either side of this argument and debate it strongly. That being said, it's pedal to the medal time and the definition of madness is well known. I'd throw Bernard in there and see what happens.
I guarantee Rice will become his old self quickly if Scott starts doing what I know he is capable of. He dazzled us here at times.Let Joe Cool lead the way 😎

Re: Bernard Scott
As others have eluded to, our offensive line is a trianwreck and it's not getting fixed this year, so nobody is going to dazzle anyone from the running back position. The Ravens really screwed up by naming Gradkowski the center as soon as Birk retired. That sealed our fate for the season. We have other issues on the offensive line, but none more glaring than at the center position. Hell, I'd bet that one of the cheerleaders would be an upgrade at center.
