Yep and you know what's crazy? Maybe it's just me, but it seems that it feeds off Queen. It's like those two are together making a tackle or big play. Now once Malik Harrison gets it going.....

ive got that same feeling, i dont think it has anything to do with them together just that they both have that super fast trigger and explosive closing speed and theyre constantly popping up and surprising ball carriers just because they both have that skillset.

malik harrison has disappointed me big time, but LJ Fort is playing REALLY good ball right now so its probably more about Forts good than Harrisons bad. i felt like he was a very safe 2 down defender with potential to become a stud on all 2 downs, but queen is that third down backer and LJ Fort has been the primary 2 down backer so he doesnt have a role yet, he strikes me as the type who is ready to step in and play very well when Forts short/cheap contract is up.

how do we feel about deshon elliott 6 weeks into his starting tenure? Im seeing a consistent playmaker, a guy who could end up a pretty respected name around the league, he flies around the field, plays very confident, nose for the ball, excellent tackler, excellent pursuit, has been a missile on blitzes, surprisingly solid on coverage.

wink usually have him up on the line of scrimmage and blitzes.

I don’t think he really got tested in pass coverage really yet. Still have some reserve of him playing any single high.

But him and Marlo, those 2 always give max effort. Deshon never gives up on the play and hawks people down. I respect that

plus the whole team seems to get super amped when he lays the wood.

Im seeing Queen and Harrison as the new Patrick Willis/Navorro Bowman combo. and with the new safety tandem "The 6th's" and the long term of Humphrey and Peters. Now I'm thinking sign Bowser now to an extension its like damn this back7 is gonna be set for awhile.

I remember many of those cats on BR.com. I was cool with many of the posters there. Some, which I have seen slowly migrating to PF.com since I've first come here years back. The mods, however, were a different story. I use to receive PM's multiple times from the mods warning me and telling me to tone down all of the "Flacco-bashing" because I was extremely vocal against "Flucco's" constant regression in his gameplay and many of the posters would rush to his defense. Everyone over there that knew me (from posting) knew that "Flucco" was never my type of QB. Never! The mods became extremely offended and took it personally. I remember telling one mod "Relax! This is a forum, it is an extreme microcosm of the Ravens fanbase and there is no way that we're all going to see eye to eye on everything Ravens in this place." That got me a temporary ban for a few days! The same can be said for us here at PR.com though. But, I dig the vibe we have here, let's keep it going! :cool:

My friend who’s a Vikings fan was jokingly mad at me just now and I had no idea why and I randomly checked Rotoworld out of boredom and saw Yannick’s name attached to the Ravens logo and creamed my pants

This is why I love sports. They're so unpredictable. Makes me laugh when people act like they know what's going to happen. Even the most educated viewer still can never know what's going to happen.

If this goes through, we did it for one reason:
The chiefs.

an iOL and a wr, would’ve done more for us right now, yannick gives us a fighting chance if we see KC in the playoffs

Nah, I think the offensive line and wr situation has a better chance to figure it self out with what's already on the roster than the pass rush situation. We have seen Wink try everything to pressure the quarterback and it didn't have good results. We haven't seen Greg Roman try everything to get Miles Boykins and other receivers more involved on the offense to give guys like Brown and Andrews a break or atleast take advantage of the double coverage those guys are receiving.

It makes it even more sweeter that my best friend is a die hard Vikings fan and we were talking in-person yesterday and I jokingly said watch the Vikings trade Yannick to the Ravens hahaha. He wanted to see him opposite Danielle at least and I don’t blame him. Life is wild
