Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
I can see that Drk. Look at the "Ravens" fans on this thread.
Boller comes in and gets 27 points in a game we needed to win to reach the play-offs. Against the exact same team that McNair needed a 52 yard field-goal from Stover to beat.
Losac and PR have gone out of their way to bash the guy AFTER WE WON and he put up a 100+ QB rating. Poe has done the same thing all over this forum (just not in this thread).
I promise you they would have rather had the Ravens lose than for Boller to do well. Just look at their post. They are not happy that we won."A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, “Hi I’m Ben may I have a drink please?”

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
Can you prove that Boller wouldn't have beaten Pitt or SD, because I can prove that McNair couldn't put up 27 points on the Browns this year?
That's what I love about these... people... they can't prove anything they say but that won't stop them from saying it."A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, “Hi I’m Ben may I have a drink please?”

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
Excellent synopsis by Mike Preston on Boller.
"Quarterback: C+
Kyle Boller made big-league throws, but at times he looked like he still belonged in Pop Warner. He's an asset as a backup but also showed why the Ravens struggled against quality teams when he was the starter. It wasn't bad for a player who has had limited repetitions."
This sums up my thoughts on Boller's play, today. Take away the 77 yard TD pass, and Boller was Boller. Tripping and fumbling. Fumbling and tripping.
We won today, yes, but we are NOT winning a SuperBowl with Kyle Boller as the QB. Period. To argue otherwise is just plain ignorance.It's a new season! It's a new day!

Of course I'm not really surprised that one of these... people... have started using selective stats to try and prove Boller had a bad game."A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, “Hi I’m Ben may I have a drink please?”

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
I never said once that Boller had a bad game. Let's quote accurately. I said Boller had a good/decent game. That does not mean, however, that we turn the keys over to Boller again. We've already been through that trainwreck. Boller's future is on the bench of another NFL team. He has no future here.
Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tim Rattay, Chris Weinke, Derek Anderson have had "good games" this year, too. I wouldn't want any of those guys as my "future" either.It's a new season! It's a new day!

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
What sense does it make to take away a player's best play? I can't stand that argument.
"Well, if you take away this absolutely perfect, amazing play, then really, he just had an average day."
Please. Give him credit for what he did today. He came off the bench, he threw the ball with some authority, and he won the game. Is he perfect? Absolutely not. Is he our future? I don't know, but I assume he'll get another shot.
You know, if you take away Jamal's 52 yard run...

If you want accuracy, you said Boller had an "ok" game. You have yet to say Boller had a good/decent game. In every post I've read where you've dicussed Boller today you were making excuses as to why he played well.
The only one of you... people... to say Boller played well today is Mobtown.
Boller's future is on the bench of another NFL team. He has no future here.
What is Kyles rating for the year? How many points have we scored in the two games where Kyle has played more than 2 quarters?"A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, “Hi I’m Ben may I have a drink please?”

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
Here's a guy who beat the hapless Packers and Minn last year to fall flat on his face after that.
If we can take away Boller's TD can we take away the pick as well? I thought he was jittery and frankly I think he needs to figure out some way to relax in the pocket. I understand why his detractors won't give him credit, he makes them nervous because he plays nervously. When he settles in he can play great. The team needs to work on his brain with somebody to help him keep calm. Maybe hypnosis would help. Seriously.

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
No, Steve didn't put the points all up but he led the come back in the last couple of mins. Boller is still panicking at the los by dropping the ball, and not looking for his secondary and third receivers and is still inaccurate in part because his feet are set when he throws according to guys on radio today.
Boller completed 62% of his passes today. That's not inaccurate. He averaged a little over 8 YPA so he wasn't dumping the ball of either.
He's still inconsistent which is why you don't want him starting long term.

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
Take away the 77 yard TD pass, and Boller was 60% with a TD and and INT and an 88QB rating and we still win the game.
I mean come on. Take away Boller's 77 yard pass and you still have an 85 yard 11 play touchdown drive, 20 points, and a victory.
Hell, take away the long bomb, let's take away the pick then too.
What's amazing is that if I were Kyle I would have wanted out of this city since the fans here hated me so much. And yet all the guy wants to do is help this team win. He takes control of the offense today and does his part to CLINCH A PLAYOFF SPOT FOR THE RAVENS. How about we give the guy a little kudo?

Re: Kyle Boller is our Future!
Boller will never, ever get credit for anything he ever does in this town. This kid has taken more than anyone should have to, & keeps coming back for more. His problem, thru no fault of his own, is he will always be tied to Billick, because he is seen as "Billick's Boy". The guy does what he is supposed to do & people find things to hate him for. After the light rail ride to Timonium today, I got in the car & heard that people just wanted to rip Boller on the radio. Why? He came off the bench & did his job people. I swear these people live to just rip Boller. They not only wish the Ravens will lose, but that McNair wil get hurt so not only will they have the team & Billick to rip, but also Boller. Boller led the Ravens to a playoff clinching win yoday & kept the momentu, going. The kid has obviously paid attention to McNair & Steve talked to Kyle thru the whole game. When Boller leaves here after next year, he will take with him the lessons he has learned from here, along with what he has learned from McNair, & go to a team & fans happy to have him, & be a successful QB. All these haters here will be screaming about how could we let this guy go. Get off his back & support him or get off the Ravens bandwagon & go get a new team to support. You either support the all the Ravens as a team or you don't support the Ravens. It's as simple as that.
