I see him being used more as the season progresses. Give it time. Didn't like that drop though. He struggled at times but some of those passes were just great plays.

Let me clarify that I don’t think the team would give a first for him in any scenario, just that I personally don’t hate the idea

I am in no way saying this is going to happen I'm just saying that our team is good enough for what I believe is the first time ever that when you look at the remaining schedule, you CAN say that you'd pick us to win each individual game and not be lying to yourself. The two stretches being KC and NE. However, KC I do believe is beatable, and we'll see where Brady is in another month. Regardless, the implications of that are we could possibly go undefeated. Knowing that won't happen, I am confident however this team could go 12 and 4
I hope no on sees this but i cant believe i kinda agree with you lol
Id do a 2nd in a heart beat
We may have to keep judon. Otherwise we are in trouble

We have to pick up another cornerback quickly if we expect to beat great teams like the Chiefs or Patriots.
Missing Young and a healthy Jimmy Smith are exposing what was once a strong area of our team.

I mean judon’s been a consistently great player for us at Sam LB and he’s got a sack in both games to start the year - the last couple of years he’s only got rolling later in the year - if he continues like this we’ll have to pay him and I wouldn’t mind
As long as we get Ronnie extended as well I don’t mind paying judon top dollar at the moment
The 3 big contracts we need to worry about in the next couple of years are Ronnie, Judon, Marlon and Pierce (if we pay him) - might have to see what we do with peanut also
Hollywood isn't accused of anything
no reason to be disappointed in him. He's played two games and has two catches with a td.
I'd rather sign Yannick Ngakoue
Ravens skill player snap. I was surprised that Hollywood had 51 snaps this game and Moore only had 7. Who thought even a month ago that Ricard would have 25 snaps.

What I saw at the game and you saw on TV is that the OL was a disgrace. They were undisciplined and Skura was downright bad. Our running backs had no lanes. If it weren't for Lamar's sheer athleticism we probably wouldn't have won that game. What a warrior he is. The kid truly loves football and its great to see a Ravens QB show some emotion out there rather than some Johnny bravo with $80 haircuts before each game.
We all knew that Andrews was good and probably a pro bowl tight end in the making as early as last year, but he is even better than I thought. It wouldn't surprise me if he had 1200 yards receiving this year and a possible All Pro.
This OL needs to help Lamar, but the versatility of this kid are just stupid hard to stop. I don't really have a whole lot of confidence against a Belichick led defense if we can't get the OL playing disciplined and creating holes but I do think LJ can put the team on his back against just about anybody.
P.S. Averett needs to turn around to learn to turn his head around. He had some plays where Murray just made a great throw and he would have made a great play if he only turned his head around.

that's a lot of snaps for hollywood but it looked like we managed them pretty well - seemed to take him off the field for periods despite him leading the snap counts
its pretty clear that seth roberts and chris moore are getting snaps as run blockers on offence
that was an extremely difficult catch to make or atleast it seemed as though it was. I saw it live, maybe you saw a better viewpoint. On the replay it looked like LJ led him too much.
On our viewpoint Lamar threw it like Boykin would keep running but Boykin kinda stopped running.
I'll have to go back and look at that again. Thanks for clarifying.
yeah they were different page - lamar expected boykin to read the coverage and continue his path, boykin was kind of in two minds so sort of sat down but lamar threw it as if he would keep running
simple miscommunication

I think Boykin is suffering from expectation based on pre-season and in relation to Brown.
We have to remember what Brown has done in his first 2 games is nearly unheard of. What Boykin has done in his first 2 games is what most rookie WRs do ... not much.
He hesitated in his route on that cross pattern and Lamar let him know it. He's got to settle down, build chemistry with Lamar and get build confidence.
