Schaub was a product of Kubiak and his staff (Kyle Shanahan, Pariani, Dennison and a young Matt LaFleur).
Kubiak had one of the best coordinated offenses, even Belichick and Patricia struggled to stop his offense. He's a true qb whisperer.
Oh I know, it’s just crazy what he became after he split with kubiak
 
Kubiak is one of those guys that was born to be an NFL coach. What a prolific career.
I still remember when we hired him and Texans fans were talking about how he’s trash and conservative and this and that and he’s gonna ruin our team lmao

Lol he wasn’t a great architect of teams but he knew how to use his toys if the FO put them in place. Rick Smith was always the problem in Houston.
 
This is fitting for this weekend. Went to Subway for dinner, as I was leaving the song being played was "Two Tickets to Paradise" lol.
 
no many kickers get in, so I think the next one will be Suggs and then Yanda.

While true, we may be the only organization with two Kickers in the HOF, Stover & Tucker at some point down the line. I only see the ageless Adam Vinateri, Stover and Tucker getting in for the modern day players.
 
I'd like everyone to play a little game. Name 1 guy on offense and defense who is going to shine this preseason and one guy on offense and defense who is going to disappoint.

Shine Miles Boykin
Shine Chris Board
Disappoint Chris Moore, I think there's a chance Jaleel makes a bigger impact than Moore this year on offense
Disappoint Jaylon Ferguson
 
SHINE:

Boykin
Willis

Disappoint:

Not sure. Maybe Shane Ray but I dont think many expect much and many already dont like Ferguson so dont know if that should count. Here.

I don't know about shine and disappoint, but I'll give you one guy on each side of the ball I'm looking forward to see:

Offense: Justice Hill
Defense: Chris Board

Shine: Jaleel Scott, Antoine Wesley, Deshon Elliot

These guys are built for preseason

Disappoint: Jaylon Ferguson, Ben Powers

I don’t think these guys will disappoint long term but I think real NFL game speed will be a shock to both of these players in the preseason. Joint practices will help but you can’t simulate live bullets
 
I think that what the pundits keep overlooking when they talk about the Ravens run heavy offense is the importance of time of possession. During the second have of the season, I saw how much fresher our defense looked when we didn't have all those three and outs with our struggling passing offense with Flacco. I can't understand how so many can't understand how important this was for us. Our defense was not winded at the end of our games and still ready to get after it and our opponents defenses looked gassed for so much time on the field. Screw them, they will find out the hard way this season...book it! Go Ravens!!!!
