Season in a microcosm....one play
As I reflect on one of the most horrific games in team history, it struck me that one play in the game really summarized the whole season at once.
The 4th and 1 from the 4.
It had all the elements of the 2013 Ravens.
Just the fact that we had to be in a 4th down situation there to begin with
A terrible play call
A terrible play call .... following a time out!
A hand off to Ray Rice who can't get a yard and a half.
The O-Line with no push
Futility
Failure
That play defines the 2013 Ravens for me.

Re: Season in a microcosm....one play
Why would a team with a winning record be defined by failure?

Re: Season in a microcosm....one play
It's all relative. Considering the Harbaugh Era, which includes five straight trips to the playoffs, a 54-26 regular season record prior to this year, a 9-4 playoff record with at least one playoff win every season, three AFC title appearances and a Super Bowl victory, then 8-7 and in danger of missing the playoffs is a relative failure.

Re: Season in a microcosm....one play
As upset as I was yesterday, I have to role with GaTechRavens on this one. Nobody is supposed to be able to lose the amount of players that they lost and still even be in the discussion for a playoff birth. Do you know how many teams would be in a transition year and only go 4-12?

Then after that play RR jawing with Harbaugh about the play and the National TV audience saw it.
