    On Trolling and Harrassment

    Hey all, This board has been mostly self regulated, and generally that is totally fine. However, in my short time back from hiatus, I've heard or seen enough complaints to have to say this: Trolling isn't going to be tolerated and neither is harassment. Trolling isn't simply having a...

    What's Wrong with the Ravens Offense?

    Hey all, I'm just popping in for a second. I didn't have enough to really make an article, but I wanted to share some thoughts that I had. I apologize for the mega length of this one and I hope you can make it to the end, but I really wanted to just express my thoughts and frustrations. This...

    Article Week Four Preview: Cleveland Browns at Baltimore Ravens

    The hopes of a 16-0 season are gone, dashed in just the third game of the season, but the Baltimore Ravens and fans alike should take away one thing: there is no longer any pressure to be perfect. The team can now play loose and free without worrying about whether a mistake will be the one to...

    Article Week One Preview: Baltimore Ravens at Miami Dolphins

    Oh baby, opening day is finally here. For a second or two, I doubted if this day would ever come. It has been EIGHT months since the Ravens untimely exit in the wild card round of the playoffs against the Los Angeles Chargers and SEVEN months since the world has been blessed with a meaningful...

    Game Ball Thread @ Falcons

    I think this is a fun, positive thread for the masses after games where there can be too much negativity. Let's have a thread where we discuss who played well and really made the game enjoyable. For me, against Atlanta, it was Jimmy Smith. Julio Jones came in with six straight 100 yard games...

    Article Football for Dummies: Cover 3

    Everything discussed in the first part of my series will lay the foundation for each subsequent coverage. If you have not read it, I encourage you to do so here. Remember our rule from last time?

    Article Football for Dummies: Press Man Coverage vs Off Man Coverage

    Football coverages are tough to diagnose; I totally get it. A person can re-watch a replay five times over and still be left with the question of, "What did the defense just do? Why did that corner run all the way back and that safety came down and then that linebacker went there?" Now just for...

    Article Week Seven Preview: New Orleans Saints at Baltimore Ravens

    At the beginning of the NFL season, before a single snap was played by any team, there were three games that I had picked out as must see TV. The first was the Pittsburgh Steelers game at Heinz Field on Sunday Night Football. This Sunday, in Baltimore, the Ravens will be taking on the New...

    Article Week Six Preview: Baltimore Ravens at Tennessee Titans

    If you are anything like me, you probably thought you had the 2018 Baltimore Ravens all figured out. You thought you knew what this team was about, and it was good football. You thought they had finally turned the corner after missing the playoffs in four of the past five years and morphed back...

    Article Week Four Preview: Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers

    I do not care who you are if you are a fan of football; all eyes should be glued to the TV this Sunday night when the Baltimore Ravens travel to Heinz Field to take on the rival Pittsburgh Steelers. With all due respect to other rivalries like the Green Bay Packers-Chicago Bears or the Dallas...

    Article Week 2 Preview: Baltimore Ravens at Cincinnati Bengals

    It has been a while since Baltimore has had a game where they have utterly dominated their opponent the way The Ravens dominated Buffalo. Now, to be fair to Buffalo, the Ravens do have an absurd amount of depth on the defensive side of the ball and the offense has had massive upgrades...

    Article For the 2018 Baltimore Ravens, the Sky May be the Limit

    Let me preface everything I am about to say with two simple acknowledgements. 1. Yes, I realize this was the Buffalo Bills. Yes, I did indeed opine that the 2018 Buffalo Bills had arguably the worst roster in the NFL (yes, I realize that includes the Cleveland Browns). 2. Yes, I realize that...

    Article Week One Preview: Buffalo Bills at Baltimore Ravens

    We are finally here. We are finally to the opening day for the Baltimore Ravens, and if you’re anything like me, you may have wondered how you ever survived the offseason. The last game that we had the unfortunate displeasure of watching was a heartbreaking loss to the Cincinnati Bengals to...

    The Bad, the Ugly, and the Ravens: Week 17 Edition

    I feel like we need this thread now more than ever. It was an awful game all the way around. I won't be doing a recap article this week. No real point, in my opinion. I can't even really think straight right now because I'm so upset. 97% chance to make the playoffs and they blew it... Sorry...
