It was so hard to tell because it was all fucking purple. It could be eerily quiet in that building too and there wasn’t much rhyme or reason to the when.

Also pass rush looked pretty good today on the surface. Dre’Mont looks like a difference maker. Green looks like he’s coming into his own. Van Noy remains a steady veteran. Jones looks healthy finally. And even have to say that Bryan flashed a few times. The pressure is starting to come. Now we need to get home.
The hip-drop tackle that halted Rashod Bateman's TD eventually put him in a boot. Nothing new but I despise the HDs. They need to be reviewable given how often they're missed live and not flagged. Wouldn't have mattered in this scenario for us but it should be a larger deterrent.
You watching the Steelers game? This is awesome for you guys.

The amount of times these videos can be made is ridiculous. Do the coaches not watch the film? Are they just waiting on Emory Jones to get healthy or something?

Started hurting when it cooled off
I really hope so. That loss last week really hurt.
I'm hearing a high ankle sprain
Oh no that stinks.
I'm not exactly big on Faalele. I've been calling for Corey Bullock to enter the lineup since last year, which I get just seems like a homeless man screaming at pigeons. But even I'll say that this clip is arguably just view farming, albeit it unintentionally.
He guides LOLB Eric Wilson into the seal block. From then, he has Derrick Henry ahead of him as the lead FB, likely to take on the nearest 2nd level defender.
Henry does just that. Slightly late, however, but he clips LILB Blake Cashman. And Faalele is stuck with staying in front of Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave, whom funnily enough have LILB and RILB designations. At this stage, Faalele cannot tell where Jackson is, and understandably so. He's mirroring the inside defender of the two, in case Jackson wants to cut inside, meaning he'd take on Allen and Hargrave would be too far outside to factor into the play. Or Jackson can simply outrun the defense to the edge, which will change the trajectory of their pursuit. At which point, none of the linemen at the LOS would be able to make it upfield enough to make contact with a defender. If anything, should Henry have gotten to Cashman, Jackson likely presses the hole faster and doesn't way to then bounce it all the way out. That snapshot of the second image is a Ravens 1st down 9 times out of 10 unless Jackson slips. And also, a hell of a call.
Now, I thought both of our guards struggled. And there were different plays to pick from the bunch. But those are the plays that need to be highlighted. If it helps, most linemen with struggles within the year will have their own dedicated lowlights. I looked up Jonah Savaiinaea on Twitter this was one of the first videos:
The more the struggles, the more these are out there. So the quantity of circulation can very much be a microcosm of how many bad reps are out there. It's just not native to our players and our players alone.
i thought that would be farfetched but those pre-snap penalties were cataclysmic
