Is it me?

Or did Steve McNair look like Kyle Boller in last years Denver Game?? Three INT's and a self induced fumble!! :grbac: Don't get me wrong, I think Steve is better and way more advanced than Kyle, but why does he get a mulligan?? I have gotten tired of everyone I here say that they lost it with Boller after last years Denver game

Give the kid a break.....NO MORE BOLLER BASHING PLEASE!!;) We are going to need him sometime this year

You can flame me, but I think Boller could really break out this year. He played well at the end of the year outside of Cleveland.

Against Denver McNair had plenty of time to make throws. Give Boller time and he'll be able to hit some deep outs and crossing patterns. Maybe I'm optimistic...maybe not. I've not entirely given up on him yet

McNair has a track record, so a lot of us have given him the benefit of the doubt, but it's been five games now and he has a QB rating of 67. That's pretty bad.

It's not just him, it's the whole offense apparently, but he hasn't improved the passing game like we all thought he would. We still have eight defenders in the box to stop the run.

Better playcalling might help. How about throwing deep once in a while?

I pray McNair can pull it together.And start clicking with his wr's & TE's.
We are due a little bit of luck at the QB position you would think.:grbac:

I posted this in the QB forum but Boller played better than McNair did when looking at the 2 Denver games.

Of course, in neither case did the Ravens score more than 10 points.

Gentlemen, please; the Ravens are 4-1 With Mcnair at the helm! Without him, they'd be 2-3, at best! Steve is a proven winner (as demonstrated by our record), and Sunshine is still learning the rudimentary skills of being a winning QB. No disrespect intended; but I do not believe that Sunshine will ever be a successful winning QB, who can take this team to the promised land.

Oh give me a break! :insane:

We are 4-1 solely because of an outstanding defense and Stover. McNair has been been a major disappointment. His two game winning drives obscured two straight games of 57 minutes of mediocrity. Otherwise, he has been average or below average.

Anthony Wright's and Kyle Boller's performances last season were as good or better.

I guess if the defense can shutout each opponent McNair can "lead" us to the SB. :grbac:

Prove it.

Seriously. You stated something as a fact and now you have to defend it.

So get to proving your statement Slick.

First, don't say "no disrespect", then call Boller a name. That's pretty hypocritical.

Second, please explain again how a QB with a winning record and a 12-4 home record is considered not a winning QB? If you want to get on him for the mistakes he's made, fine. Other than that, you're statement is factually wrong.

After his 1st 5 games, , I thought McNair had received 5 more mulligans than Kyle did in 3 years. All I have heard on WBAL or WNST is, "We wouldn't be 4-1 if Kyle was playing." I am sick of hearing it. People said we would have never won against CLE or SD without McNair, but yet they have no fact that can prove that. I am a Boller fan, the kid is tough & has never hidden from the media no matter how bad the game, unlike some of his superstar teammates in this town. I like McNair & was glad to see him come to town. But outside of the drive to open the season & the 2 comebacks, he hasn't shown much. I want McNair to succeed & I want Boller to learn from him. 1 day, Boller will not be here & will get in a system that is QB friendly & will be successful. Everyone will wonder why we let him go.
