Do we still get to complain about injuries, given the QBs we've faced?

Stroud looks legit but we got him in Game 1 when he was still working things out.
Burrow was a shadow of himself. Minshew is a back up and DTR had the triple of being a back up, playing his first ever game and just being terrible.

Now it looks like Kenny Pickett (Yes he can) is out.
Yes, we do. This is our 3rd consecutive season playing with a decimated roster and we keep losing more players every game, today again. We made it to playoffs with Lamar out for a third of the season and almost got through the wild card round. Nobody in the league has more right to complain.
 
Baker Mayfield brining back the 2020 vibes. I never thought the Bucs would suck because of him, but I’m a little shocked he’s done this well.

I wonder if he ever seriously considered our offer this off-season.

Sort of depends. Ravens fans falling for the trap of "quantity over quality". Like we have a lot of good players out, but if you take away a starting QB off most NFL rosters, their impact is exponentially greater.

That being said... its Richardson, Watson, and possibly Pickett next week. These are some of the worst QBs in the league this year. So its not like you're playing the Chiefs without Mahomes.

I don't think Watson being out is the reason the Browns lost yesterday, but DTR was really, really, really bad. Some of those turnovers couldn't be more gift-wrapped.

Richardson's been good and it would have been a different game vs. Rapey Watson, but I take your point.

The way Pickett's been playing, Trubisky will probably be an upgrade.
 
Never clocked when the schedule came out that we had 3 road division games in the first 5 weeks of the season… should have been fuming at the time…

But now we have a chance to go 3-0 in the division this week entirely with road games and have only the home slate left for the stretch run…

Just got to handle business

I usually just yawn at the scheduling though. Like sure, three road games early. Also get to finish the year with a divisional home game, and you get a Bengals home game on a short week with no rest for them. In fact you get two divisional home games in 5 days.

Probably why I paid no attention to any of that

Just saying it’s a quirk that I’m surprised no one at the time made a big deal of but I would have expected them to…

And with how it’s played out we’re in a great spot vs the rest of the division if we take care of business @ Pittsburgh

We just recently sold that MF an Escalade.

I gave him a hard time about a nice Ravens beanie I had in my car to give him and he almost died in the office lmaooooo
 
I wonder what he is looking for
I mean considering the level of player he is he will likely get 25m per year on the open market. Chase is likely going to be either the first or 2nd player to actually get 30m aav (depends on if he signs before or after Jefferson) and not the fake version Hill got or even the fake 28m Adams got.

Hope chase only get around 25.. he isnt even close to the likes of adams and hill.. now jefferson, that mf there on some shit

Chase has said he wants JJ to become the highest paid WR and thats because he wants to outdue his contract. I'm hoping Chase either plays himself out of Cincinnati (won't happen) or they become cash strapped with Burrow and Chase

So much so, the NFL flexed the Lions-Bucs Week 6 game to 4:25PM.
