No, thanks. You remember how long it took Jimmy Smith to fully recover?
Yes, but he's a lineman, not a CB. urban should be ready next year, but this is his 4th year so either we extend him because it will be cheaper or we let him walk.

actually its gotten to the point where it's very believable. I'm predicting 35 players on IR this year.
Yeah. Injuries happen from all sorts of reasons but having the team decimated by them to this extent for so many consecutive years should be alarming to the team ownership and management. I'm not buying any explanations any longer - we simply aren't doing stuff right.

We can definitely find lot of better lineman than Urban. He's not the guy you need to invest so much time in. This would be his 3rd major injury.

our cap situation has also taken a hit with these restructures.
the team needs to wake up and give up and REBUILD

but its all good

Joe Flacco will spend the offseason mating with his wife to achieve his dream of having a football team of kids, while ozzie drafts 5 more d linesman and a fast WR with stone hands

Dude got rolled up on from behind, just like Yanda. What could have been done differently to prevent that?

John Harbaugh here'' We need to pray more, love God more, Love america more, Send our children to war for no reason but to protect america..did i mention i love god? what was the question'' ?
 
This is starting to feel like my catchphrase: but we just can't have nice things...

Only positive is we might be able to re-sign him for cheap next offseason

No way he has to go, the guy is made of glass. Its not like he flashed anymore than anyone else behind him on the depth chart, he got the nod because hes been here longer. There wont be any noticable difference between him and the next man.
 
it's not a feeling..it's a fact

by the season end it will only be backup and PS players playing
Sucks but it's a trend among guys who just have the tendency to get injured. Urban and Woodhead are both guys who have issues with staying on the field. Yanda is the only shocker. Lewis also struggled to stay on field last season. Same with Kenneth Dixon who had issues with injuries since college. Canady had issues with staying on the field his rookie season.
The Ravens need to start taking players who don't have issues with staying on the field. I'd rather have someone who is good that can stay on the field than someone who is great but keeps missing games. It doesn't matter what type of talent you have what can you do if you're always on the sidelines?

That's the one of the things I was referring to ^^ as in "we're not doing stuff right"
