I understand that, but Flacco was throwing bricks and playing so bad. Lamar brought something new to the table, our offense now can run the ball. Flacco is predictable, a game manager and a rythm passer. Plus, with him, our running game just dies. Our chances with Lamar are better and he's developing. What makes me mad is people talk about him like trash, that he can't make any good pass or get our team anywhere, considering we're 2-0 with him and tied in this game

Ya but the Ravens are 2-0 and tied against some of the bad NFL teams. The Bengals fell off a cliff in the past month, the Raiders are hot garbage, and the Falcons could be good if their entire defense was not on IR. The team has Super Bowl aspirations and they seem to be dragging their feet against scrubs.

Michael Pierce is Brandon Williams x 3
This is true. I’m hoping we keep Pierce and let Brandon go. It’s very doable we just extend Pierce and make his cap hit so that it’s light early and heavy after so we can cut Williams when we can actually save a substantial amount.

LJ doesn’t need to do anything spectacular here. Just play solid and don’t turn the ball over and we can win this!

No better QB on the roster like it or not Lamar isnt our best option
Have you even watched Flacco the last several games he played? He was horrible. We are freaking 4-5 with Joe how tf do you people think he’s our best chance to win?

And if neither of them can carry the team to the playoffs, Lamar should be starting. Joe held the team back the last several games, there’s no denying it.

#8 needs to go into the locker room and shake off this first half and get his mind right and stop fumbling and tighten those passes
At the very least, he put together a scoring drive that led to a FG. Wasn't pretty, but he had solid numbers in that drive.

Everytime I watch a Ravens game it just dings in my head the fact that we passed Calvin Ridley for Hayden Hurst, who can't make a play even if his life is on the line. Then so many freaking drops. Geez... I miss Q and Steve Smith

Yeah. I like how he quickly seemed to get over those mistakes on that last drive. I think if we had more time we would’ve been more aggressive but knowing the clock we just wanted points.

We sure came out swinging against the Bengals week 2. Week 3 against the juggernaut Broncos started picture perfect as well. Steelers game was a beauty too. Outside of the Bills, who have we dominated? I'll wait....

In an attempt to not make anyone fight like this board likes to do, let's just try and summarize the facts.

We are tied and get the ball back.

Atlanta's offense hasn't done anything since the first drive and that was a field goal.

Lamar is having a poor game in terms of turnovers, and he missed Brown once, but at least a few first downs have been dropped by his receivers.

Marty is ignoring the running game even though it's working.

I am not thrilled with Lamars performance thus far, but this is to be expected early in his career. I think you judge his performance exclusively on how he handles himself in the second half after some problems in the first half of a winnable road game.

The last 2 weeks it’s been the same. Some early mistakes and close at the half.

The way our defense is playing I’m not too worried. However, lamar needs to stop turning it over and we need to run again.

How can you go from bitching about people bitching about Lamar to immediately bitching about Hurst who is playing TE, aka the position where it usually takes a season to really grow into a good NFL player? How do you go from A to B and not see the logical disconnect?

I don’t mind the debate over who should start in the long run but everyone has to remember that today Lamar IS our best option and we need to win this. I bristle when it starts to seem those who argue against using Lamar revel when he makes mistakes so they can be right

Let’s go Ravens!

That is actually why I am worried because the ATL offense is not that bad. There is no way they play that bad in the second half.
