The Missed Tackles, the Injuries and the Special Teams

[ravenslord]

There's been a good amount of discussions in the last few months about the Ravens approach to evaluating Olineman, and that most people think there should be an emphasis on getting more "athletic" Olineman on this team.

They want to move in that direction and why they drafted Linderbaum. We just need to keep going in that direction starting with Stanley's position who is like a statue out there now.

That loss to the Browns after being up by 14 pts at least 4x in that game (I believe) was not a good look for a division leader and 2nd place team in the entire AFC. That was fuggggly!

Definitely not a good look. They have got to clean up the mistakes if they are to be a serious contender in the post season. 2 picks, a dropped pass in the EZ, a blocked FG. Take away any one of those and we win that game. Take away all of those and it’s a blowout.

About the dropped pass thing; I think if you go back and look at it the defender was face guarding Mitchell. I don't think he really saw much of the ball until it hit him.

touches your hand gotta catch that, but watching film it seems it was a designed wheel route but man lamar shoud've took the checkdown to bate lb facing mitchell , could've been a td

I'd agree with that. If we had just used Keaton in the 2nd half we would have won this game . I believe that.

Has Lamar hit a deep ball TD this year????? I dont think so.

Eeh maybe. I actually thought the defender deflected it at first but looking at it again he clearly didn’t. Should have caught that one but either way, if he catches it we win the game.

No way to know that for sure but I sure was hoping to see him get some touches in the 2nd half.

Hard to know that we win, but yeah.

K is a 21yo. UDFA playing in his 2nd game, I'm givin' him a pass.

Well yeah he gets a pass from me as well. I’m not slamming him I’m just sayin. It was one of many things that game that added up to a loss.

He had a deep ball to Zay that got stopped at like the 3 yard line but that is the closest that I remember to a deep TD pass this year.

Whatever way the wind blows, so go the blow hards.

We like to give them ammo with all these pendulum swings.

 

[BoredMarine13]

You only come around during the bad times, Bernard Pollard. How about you show up when we win and Lamar lights it up with his arm?

Woah woah woah leave Bernard out of this. That man single handedly altered four NE post seasons by injuring different patriot players.

Not the hero we wanted, but one the NFL needed. RIP Brady’s knee, Welker’ MCL, Ridley’s Brain, and Gronks Ankle.

This only good lineman are tyler, morgan

rest are average or not good, ronnie is inconcsient and regressing, maybe Its me watching eagle,lion games that make me think the line isn't so good

Well, the Eagles and the Lions have two of the best O Lines in the NFL. Ours isn't up to those standards but that doesn't make it bad.

Their fans will be looking at our linebackers and complaining, because that's where teams attack both of them. No team is perfect.

If the Texans can beat the Bengals at home, we should be able to beat them. They have not been impressive this season. Shit, any given Sunday, this is just me talking to myself. I am nervous aboutThursday, as I can’t comprehend dealing with two losses in 5 days. I would be no good.

Been bummed since yesterday, bummed right now, will still be bummed tomorrow.

I'm shocked this loss hurt people as much. I was livid after the Colts and Steelers losses. This one not so much because we actually deserved to lose.

You are right. We got outplayed by the browns but not the Steelers and Colts

Would have been nice to steal it though, it hurts because now if we lose on Thursday it’s crisis mode
