Ravens camp report: It's time for Flacco, offense to lead the way

Good report and I like the buzz we are getting from league scouts about our offense.

Re: Ravens camp report: It's time for Flacco, offense to lead the way
All of a sudden, Torrey, Anquan and Dennis, with Ray coming out of the backfield and Joe throwing the ball seems more dangerous than it did a year ago.
Torrey looks like he is on his way to being Derrick Mason with vertical ability. Anquan is finally being used properly. It is clear that Joe can and does rely on Dennis Pitta."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector. I am praying that your journey will be guided by the light", Leon Shore

The comments were pretty funny. Steeler fans crack me up. Joe is throwing bullets this year and it scares them to death. Denial is their only comfort.

They're also scared that Joe finally has the weapons that can expose their overrated pass defense, they were number one but they are still vulnerable to the type of weapons we present on offense (speed at WR and athletic TE's). Troy probably wishes we still had an aging beat up Todd Heap instead of the younger TEs in Dickson and Pitta. Troy P, Clark and their linebackers can't cover our TE's.

They've been vulnerable to attacking offenses for awhile. Their corners have been their weakensss the last several years. Cameron hasn't run an attacking offense. He's played not to lose, which played right into their strength. No one has over-estimated their defense more than Cam Cameron.

The scary thing about Flacco and has to scare opponents in our division, you can look at most QBs and get a feel that is the best they are going to get, even the elite ones. WIth Flacco, I'm not just saying this, he could do some things that haven't happened in a while, like back to back Superbowls. I just never get the feeling that he has hit his ceiling which technically looks to be true.
I'm serious, if they keep WRs, TEs and a serviceable RB around him, sky's the limit to where the Ravens end up every year. Imagine when he is in year 13 or so and he has a little diminished arm strength, he would actually be coming down to the pack of strong armed QBs. Exciting!!!

The view around the league from a number of coaches and team executives is different from that of some fans and media. To many in the sport, Flacco is an elite player held back by a conservative, and at times predictable, offense, and if the cuffs were removed, he'd prove that elite-ness.

Re: Ravens camp report: It's time for Flacco, offense to lead the way
This X1000. I believe it though because when it comes to things said around the league writers don't get that kind of stuff from thin air. I know Polian has spoken very highly of Flacco. There was that one anonymous coach though from our division that said he really can't see Flacco having a breakout year. That his stats declined last season because of 'defensive pressure'.
But really his take doesn't seem very valid. How does that make sense every season Joe has dealt with defensive pressure. Now all of a sudden defensive pressure made his stats drop? An actual change from 2010 to 2011 was young first year starters getting thrown into the offense without an offseason.
