11-40 on third down on the road...leading the league period in 3 and outs

With all the money Steve has and will be spending on offensive players, someone has some explaining to do.

Just curious but where did you find this stat?

I know it's harder to win on the road but this is just a different team. At home they can compete with anybody, on the road they're horrible, and especially Flacco.

Where do you start?

They (the announcers) have been saying it for a few games now, I cringe every time.

It's crazy to think that on hand we have statistically the most explosive offense (plays over 20 yards) but are horrendous on 3rd down, such a disparity.

It seems like teams just sit on the deep routes and get pressure with their front four which = the above stat.

Yes it's a very different team. Too different in my opinion. Outside of the Steeler games on the road, I have to question the mental toughness of this team. At the first sign of trouble the offense goes into its shell and it starts with Cam.

I would love to see a breakdown of down opened distance and the play called. If its anything under 2 yards we need to do QB sneaks like yesterday. We done two and got first downs, but the second one was a sneak, fake halfback run, rollout sneak.

It was a great call!

Only stat I saw during yesterday's telecast was that we were ranked 20th in 3rd down conversion. Still not very good obviously

I was curious where did you find that stats. I was not surprised by the stats as I wanted to initiate a post on that...

Specifically, I was more concerned with the offense going three and out quickly after a momentum shift (especially when an opponent scored).

For the 3rd down conversions...just box scores.

For the 3 and outs, I believe I heard that either on the TV or the Radio broadcast of the game yesterday.

Neither is hard to believe.

It's time for a new offensive identity. We've seen what this offense can do. The talent is there. The problem is at the top. And I am speaking of Harbaugh to. Cam should have been gone a long time ago.

This. I think Flacco has reached his ceiling with Cam.
