Regarding the halftime commentary

"[The patsies] haven't won a playoff game since..."

yeah, since they stopped cheating...

I really wish we had Lee Evans in there right now too, but if Torrey can catch in the 2nd half, we'll be ok. William Gay is one of the worst CB's in the league IMO. We always seem to torch him every time we play them.

Birk is getting his ass handed to him.

he wouldn't have dropped a pass that hit him in his hands, that's for sure...

Yeah the O just has to punch it in man, can't let Ben hang around. Also, we are seriously lacking pass rush up the middle right now, we need something from Ngata. I'd like to see us start to break away but it'll probly be one of those tight, last minute games... (biting nails)...

They are double teaming everyone on the pass rush. Unless we come with an all out blitz, they are going to pick it up. They are trading off less WRs for max protect. The TEs and RBs are just staying in to block.

Ravens best bet is to keep at it, blitzing here and there. The coverage has been great and needs to stay that way for any chance.

I liked the idea of that PA boot leg when they were on the 1 yard line, but Flacco has to get around and throw it a lot sooner than what he did. Clark has his back to Flacco and Pitta had a step on him if Flacco throws that sooner rather than dragging it out to the sideline.

Also, I couldn't tell, but I'd bet that someone like Dickson or Leach were open on the backside.

Why yes, he is.

[DColeman]

ABout what i expected, even with the refs calls. ravens need to put this thign away, they are too dangerous to let them hang around.

[Lime in the Coconut]

The stupid call on Torrey still ticks me off, that would have broken them right off the bat

I think Lee would be the diference right now, we need him back, hopefully before we start the rest of our division games.
They put the numbers up of our current WR's,
Boldin 850+ receptions
Smith, Williams and Reed have a whooping under 20 receptions combined

Exactly.

BB rather suddenly and mysteriously stopped being a genius, didn't he?

[PGCountyRaven85]

Time for Gurode at center?
