Re: Marcus Peters ... The Reluctant Tackler
Tackling is desire, thats why Peters led the team in tackles against the Rams, he just needs to learn that to be a Raven means you tackle always

Re: Marcus Peters ... The Reluctant Tackler
Does Peters have the reputation of just not being a tackler, or do you get the tackles from him once you invest in him and sign him long term. Either way, the picks are going to come in bunches like they are now, but I’d bet not at such quite a steady rate. For a top dollar DB contract I wouldn’t pay it for Peters. Love him as a rental, but the business says be careful with paying this guy. He’s on his third team and it certainly didn’t look like the Rams couldn’t use him.

Re: Marcus Peters ... The Reluctant Tackler
... and if he intercepts a pass, and brings it to the house to secure a Ravens victory, will you still say "yeah, but he missed a tackle in the 2nd quarter." I am not denigrating any poster, everyone has a right to their opinion (that includes me). What I see in Peters is an A-1/top-notch ball hawking CB, who is a great book-end to go with Humphrey. Show me any player who is 100% perfect... Bc

Re: Marcus Peters ... The Reluctant Tackler
No one is saying he hasn't improved this defense. What we are saying is, there is a certain standard that should be expected of you when you play for this team.
But I guess the team's new slogan is "Play Like a Raven.....unless you are a really talented CB, in which case we'll accept whatever level of effort you decide to give on any particular play, and just be happy with it.""Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but NOT to their own facts" - Daniel P. Moynihan

Re: Marcus Peters ... The Reluctant Tackler
In fact you denigrated me by calling me an ingrate for starting the defense getting gashed thread. Don’t talk out of both sides of your mouth when you just said everyone had a right to their opinion...so respect my right to post what I want.

Re: Marcus Peters ... The Reluctant Tackler
Why is this so divisive? Two weeks ago nearly everyone was head over heels about Peters and what an asset he is to the D.
Should we start a Hollywood disappears from games thread or a Mark Andrews drops balls thread or a Lamar didnt have a lot of passing yards yesterday so he sucked thread?
I guess I'm just not understanding the singling Peters out. But I'd be willing to bet that most of those shitting on him were those that shit on the trade weeks ago when it was made and were saying that he sucks yada yada and are seeing an opportunity to save face
