Someone remind me, who was it again that 3 years ago said Zac Taylor would become on of the Bengals greatest head coaches???

Some interesting nuggets in Rat-Land

I read an article that Lamar wants out of Baltimore and that the Atlanta may be his landing spot

Also saw that Duverney (sp?) is out for the season on an injury. I think that dude “can be” dynamic and dangerous ….“at times” ….so it sure doesn’t hurt is that’s for sure.

He's not the top QB in the AFCN anymore and he knows it. To win Division titles he's gonna have to go to a weaker division.

I agree!

I want Lamar Jackson to stay in the AFC north. He’s starting to become injury prone, he’s very overrated, and he straight up sucks come playoff time.

I mostly agree, especially about the injury prone part.  

I can't quite say he's overrated until I see him on a team that's actually willing to supply him with weapons.  Outside of Andrews, Baltimore has given him little to nothing to work with in terms of pass-catchers.  Their overall philosophy on team building is aging out as the league becomes almost completely offense-oriented.  

The traditional Ravens roster will get smoked by any of the higher powered offenses at the top of the AFC right now.

i was completely surprised -- maybe flabbergasted is a more appropriate term -- that Baltimore completely ignores WR in the draft when they knew it was their glaring weakness.

Now that we’re in the playoffs,everyone is getting healthy at the right time,,,except Hubbard.He probably won’t be back until the playoffs.I think the Bengals have a good chance of making a run here,and win these last 3 games.

But,first they have to take care of business against the Patriots.It’s going to be a tough game,and bitterly cold.

& missing Awuzie may hurt. Really REALLY surprised we are doing as well as we have. Kudos to Lou and the D as I bet the ranch we would feel his loss big time.

They have the talent at WR, with possible one of the best in the AFC if he gets a QB in Garrett Wilson and their slot WR is legit as well in Elijah Moore. Fortunately for the Bengals and unfortunately for them, they have absolute trash at QB.

There was a thread several weeks back where I predicted this fall from the Jets due to this exact reason, they have no QB. Great defense, and talent at WR and prior to his IR trip a really good RB. Just need to get that guy under center figured out.

Garrett Wilson has been a bright spot. But yes I figured all along they were playing over their heads early on.

He's also a big injury waiting to happen.

People are really overrating Lamar. He’s just not as good as people think.

And he’s a playoff choke artist. The Ravens are scary when they’re a wildcard team with a pocket passer. That’s when they rumble through the playoffs

I still love watching this from before last season. At the 1:17 mark where he says "The Dark Side". That is the moment just before Joe throws his first NFL TD pass.
