The dance didn’t piss me off as much as his dive when going out of bounds. He literally jumped up in the air to make it look like he got hit. Ahole.

Ravens have scored the most points in the NFL after 3 weeks (99).
We allowed plenty (77), so there's that.

Cardinals look bad, Murray running for his life with their terrible o-line.

Gimme Duv and his sure hands at WR2 over Hollywood and his drive-killer drops.
Duv + Linderbaum is the better fit for this team

Cardinals giving the HC and QB contract extensions in the off-season after that blowout loss in the playoff made no sense. Those 2 don’t give af anymore. Got paid

Linderbaum has been so great for this OL already - he took his lumps against quinnen williams early but has otherwise been basically as advertised

If 2022 Duv is your WR3 you have a very good corps. Right now he's obviously WR2. Let's see if someone of Proche, Robinson, and Wallace can be a legit WR3.
he's got a defined role in the offence that focuses on what he does well and importantly he has lamar's trust because of how great his hands are and how good he is in the redzone especially - 2 of his 3 TDs have been on fades where lamar's given put the ball in a perfect spot despite minimal separation to let duv make a play
he's playing his role well within the route combos and was the recipient of the 2nd TD against the jets off a beautiful concept that got him wide open in the endzone
but the most important part of his WR development has been to continue working his release in man - it was his main weapon in 2021 and you could see Dubb's hands all over his releases and i think this year clearly that was again a point of emphasis - the way he takes space and then uses his physicality and power and straight-line burst to work past the jam or close space to reduce reaction time for corners when they give him space
and on top of that he's running a bunch of clear-outs at full-speed
im very happy with him as a top 3 WR on the team - he's still limited in some parts of his game but that's fine because he doesnt have to be the shifty guy who runs choice routes or the guy who's able to explode out of his break back to the ball on a comeback or a curl
with how much we run 22 personnel, he's absolutely fine as our 2nd WR because of how much Andrews and Likely play in the slot and work the middle of the field
robinson to me looks like a role player who might be useful situationally - he's a below average WR3 i think and a useful rotational WR4
im guessing these proche inactives are related to his injury because i cant believe he's being sat down just purely in terms of his play-style, we've got no one else on the roster who's the kind of guy i feel confident running short-to-intermediate whip routes, choice routes, spot routes, quick little digs and stuff like that
although i must say im hoping that as dobbins gets healthier he can offer us some of that short-range route-running value out of the backfield with texas routes and stuff like that

Totally agree. I hope we see Proche for real next week. Maybe I'm the Proche Homer but I think he can provide another legitimate option in the middle of the field. Robinson should just run go routes and lmao.
yes it's happened before but doesn't happen often.
