The Random Thought Thread

As we were winning, I kept thinking "welp, there goes our chance at saquon barkley..."

Time to shift my focus to someone more realistic.

*cooomme on quenton Nelson or Calvin Ridley."
 
First of all, FUCK the Dolphins.

Second, that beginning promo with the female Ravens fan going to the U was pretty funny.
 
The only similarity between this defense and the 2000 one is the shit qbs we're playing. The fact we're struggling with a bunch of rooks and retreads is disgusting.
 
We have 3 GOATs in our franchise(at the very least all top 3) in ray, ed, and JO....

putting all antics and accolades aside, who is actually the greatest on field player? I gotta give it to ed Reed. Ray was the most inspirational and he's by far the greatest MLB of all time, but when it comes to just being the best player period, it's ed Reed to me. Who you got?

To me it is Ed Reed as well. He was the most destructive (in a real sense) defensive player that we ever had. He was impossible to account for which gave nightmares to offenses. As for Ray, I agree he was the greatest MLB of all time and the greatest leader in football history (hence the statue). But, for just on field play and joy to watch, it was the mercurial Ed Reed for me as well.

Ed Reed and it's not even close for me which just says how high I hold him. My favorite player ever and was the one I was most excited for getting a ring( and an int in the SB).
 
Ed.
Ed was a game changer.
Let me put it this way. If they mention Ray. The play just ended. If they mention Ed the possession just changed. Ray made plays, Ed changed games.
That said, all encompasing, Ray is the greatest Raven ever.

I agree, my favorite is Ed Reed. He was like having 12 men on the field. Always felt like he was in more than one place at a time.

Agreed on both counts, fellas. When I was younger, I hated playing defense when I played with my friends in my neighborhood. After really watching Reed, he inspired me to play safety any time I was on defense.

I think the most affirming point behind how good Ed Reed is is the clip of Brady and bellichek talking about how you try and beat him - those 2 goats recognised another one
