Re: Eagles Post Game
Agreed. The Ravens are somewhat of an illusion, but they can’t control the schedule. They did what they were supposed to do against inferior teams but the games against better competition are coming up.
Right now I would expect another one and done if they can’t get any better than what they are right now.

Re: Eagles Post Game
Hmm.. perhaps, but they seem like a team primed to peak towards the end of the season and into the playoffs. Especially when I watch the offense, I have no idea what they're trying to do. I think they find their identity here in the coming weeks and the offense improves.
This franchise is circling the toilet bowl of mediocrity waiting to be flushed.

Re: Eagles Post Game
The elephant in the room that everyone seems to avoid is obvious.
You can hate on Boykin, lament that DuVernay isn’t involved more but the real personnel problem is that Hollywood isn’t playing like a true #1.

Re: Eagles Post Game
The OL is silently the hole that is sinking the ship. As much as I want a true #1 WR you have to take a long hard look at the OL play/penalties/execution. You know.... I love Yanda to death. That man had the right to walk away whenever he wanted to... but I can't fathom why he retired after a 14-2 season. One last ride was exactly what the doctor ordered and he kinda left us hanging and the OL has gone to shambles

Re: Eagles Post Game
Its the same story different opponent, different week:
-WR's are garage
-OL struggled
Give the defense some credit, they actually got pressure and Campbell had 3 sacks. So there's improvement in the pass rush dept? (correct me if I'm wrong I didn't see the game). I think the big plays are a slight concern. It seems every week there's one or two big plays that the defense gives up , so that needs to be looked at (but seriously every team gives up a big play or 2 every week).
There's not a whole lot that can be done about changing the personnell right now. I think this team is the team we've got this year. They need to develop, coach, adn teach these guys and then they need to do a better job with the game plan.
The OL can get better. But, they need to look in the mirror and understand that they can be better. They lost Yanda and are just happy with being in position (which they don't do that well either). When Yanda was in there last year they had some piss and vinegar to their play and they liked getting after people. Now they just line up and stand there.
The Wr's are what they are. I honestly feel like you can't make a great WR. You either get one when you draft them or you get them in FA. Now, that could just be because I'm a Ravens fan and we've never understood how to evaluate WR's.
Lets just see how they do coming out of the bye. They've got a gauntlet of great teams coming up: Steelers, Colts, Pats, Titans, Steelers. If they get through that and only lose 1 or 2 I think that's a success. If they can get the Offense fired up and clicking and getting after that, then that's a win.

Re: Eagles Post Game
Nobody ever said Hollywood was a #1 WR. He's a mid-upper tier #2 and we've known that all along. That is literally the only WR getting open consistently and playing well. This is one of the most asinine post game comments I can remember. Literally criticizing one of the only pieces of the offense that is actually efficient.
The same guy white knighting for garbage Miles Boykin and posting entire pseudo-film breakdowns showing us how amazing he thinks Boykin is.... is pointing the finger at Hollywood. Unreal.

Re: Eagles Post Game
Hollywood is all right but he hasn’t shown he’s going to or able to take a game over by sheer will like some receivers do. He just kind of shows up from time to time and pitches in here and there.
