Game Thread Ravens @ Redskins 12/09

1st and 23 will do that.

Not what I meant.

Even without the two penalties, Cam was prepared to go turtle mode. You could see it.

We should have come out on that drive with purpose.

Screen pass? Didn't get the first...but still nice playcall. Cam must think this game is being played in the vault.

Wish we'd have ran it on 1st or 2nd down...with Ray Rice.

Oh look, we have a 1 TD lead, means we've automatically won and we can just go back to the conservative, head scratching pointless play calling.

You might wanna put this into context.

The Ravens players screwed this drive up by creating a 1st and 23 from inside their own ten.

I would have led with this play.

Total lack of conviction and determination on that series.

Yeah, you take 2 awful penalties, but I don't like 2 straight runs to get into 3rd and forever. I LIKED the TE screen on 3rd down, but that's a play you run on 2nd down, not 3rd down.

Now you gave up a chance at scoring in favor of punting the ball to a red hot RGIII. Just a case study in coaching scared...

Yep. 3rd down is too easy to defend.

1st and 23 will kill most drives.

It can do, but in this game do you think it is insurmountable?

I understand why you do it, Redskins have no timeouts, so you're draining the clock and incompletions give them way too much time to work if you don't convert, but still... Flacco is running hot, at least give him a shot.

Say what?

The first play didn't even get started due to a false start.

The 2nd play was a nice gain negated by a hold.

I mean, I get people having issues with Cam but this is a bit much.

Great series by Cam. Run up the middle on 1st & 23. Then another run for nothing and then play for punting position.

[JohnBKistler]

Wow...what a punt!!!

[StingerNLG]

What a punt!
