It’s pretty comical and almost beautifully fitting for how this season’s run game is going

And yet they could not figure out the lowly ranked dolphins defense. It’s ok to admit he played a poor game and couldn’t figure out how to beat the looks they showed. The national media has criticized Lamar unfairly , causing some of you to become overly sensitive to a critiques. I expect Lamar to play at the level of the greats , physically and mentally, because he has the ability to do so but clearly needs to improve on some mental aspect of the game.

but no one's here not saying he's played poorly
even the greats have poor games
you're the one who's suggesting that based on one game where strategically and execution-wise we could not overcome one specific flaw on a short-week against an unprecedented level of cover-0/cover-1 that somehow means lamar's mentally deficient and behind the 8-ball
you literally said he's not mentally where a 4th year QB should be despite clear evidence to the contrary - show me a 4th year or younger QB who's doing better 'mentally' or succeeding in tougher circumstances?
what are these mental aspects he needs to get better at? - my only mental critique of lamar is sometimes he's hesitant to get the ball out quickly and doesnt let the ball fly when he should all the time on some of those quick-hitters - partly though i think that's somewhat to do with the play-designs though albeit it's still also about lamar... you never see us with those quick drops - it's always a minimum 3-step drop

This is why I was insisting our offense come out no huddle to start the second half. They did not until it ended up being too late
obviously it's not the same because the defence plays differently in 2 minute - but we consistently move the ball in those scenarios (even if we havent finished well necessarily consistently)

This game was building for a while. As disappointing as it was, it was bound to happen.
This is a Ravens team that was incredibly close to losing to the Lions. It took a 4th and 19 conversion, missed delay of game and a record-setting field goal just to defeat Detroit.
This is still a playoff team, but they can't be having many more efforts like this down the stretch

It makes me worried that Lamar will never get it

Even if your OC was a moron , you could still see that quick slants over the middle , with the speed of Hollywood and Bateman ,
could have destroyed the massive blitzing the Dolphins were doing .
We failed to really to take advantage of this which was really beyond belief .

They wouldn't have been the only players we looked at, so for better or worse what it comes down to is EDC not pulling the trigger. You can't tell me no GM was willing to trade to us.

That’s the thing, it’s like how does any NFL OC not implement this…. I can’t wrap my fucking brain around it because it doesn’t make sense.

He tried to trade a first for Xavien Howard dude, we couldn’t fit him under the cap and the entire reason we didn’t finalize the trade was because Miami wouldn’t eat a chunk of his salary. What more do you want lol

I'm honestly glad that fell through. Promising talent is not the issue with our secondary, simply adding more to it does not seem like the answer. Spending a 1st to get a player that will not be enough to get us over the hump this year and then require us to make a decision between him, Averett and Peters in the offseason seems like an overly aggressive move.
I'm much happier building on what we have, trying to keep Averett and working out the few big plays they seem to let go every game, then spending the 1st on a OT, OLB, DL.

Not to mention Howard is scoring a 62 on PFF this year, for whatever it's worth

I’m appalled we didn’t go after Mack

I think The Ravens did try to trade for him but If the Colts feel like they have a shot to make the playoffs then why would they want to trade Mack to another AFC team that's may make it to the playoffs especially if the asking price isn't high? I don't think The Ravens would have wanted to trade a third round pick or even higher for Mack.
