I can't even go there anymore, so many "fans" quit on this team early in every game, it is just depressing. I actually thought there should be a weekly "List of Shame" (which was said in a manner of good humor), but evidently the mods didn't think so, as it got deleted....
Jesse Bates is the real deal. Flacco, Pigben, and the rest of the QB's we face now have to worry that anytime they throw the deep ball, it's going to be coming right back at them in Bates' hands. If he's this good as a rookie, he could be better than Reggie in a few years
. Hopkins gets a solid pat on the back for coming in and playing a good game at center.
AJ is, as always, a Raven Killer.
I'm going to have to quit calling Hardly Nickerson Hardly, because he's playing like Nickerson. Evans continues to improve, but good grief it's maddening watching opposing QB's carve up the center of the field in the LB area.
Whatever happened at halftime, we let them come back from 3 touchdowns down to bring it within 5 in the 2nd half. That can't happen.
The Oline is better than we thought, the whole Ravens D-line were tapping helmets and sucking for air in the 2nd half, and our D-line rotation is killer. As I said last week, this team, with it's depth, is built for the 2nd half..... the comeback should not have happened.
Flacco, if you looked at his face on the sideline, was totally in a mental funk. The interception, the hurries, the sacks and having Lamar standing there is really working on him. You can just tell he hates having him on the field. A few more losses and the crowd starts yelling for Jackson, and Flacco is done.
Bobby Hart, has to get mentioned again because..... T-Sizzle...…. DAMN!!! It was more "T-where's the oxygen tank"
Mixon is the beast we thought we were getting. Now Ross just needs to step up his game.
Fat Randy..... Perfect this year and driving the ball out of the end zones.....
The coaches. Not sure if this is Lazor or Merv, but we do not seem to be going away from the game plan at the first sign of trouble like we did in the past. I'm liking it. Austin has every DB on the field searching for those interceptions, and if you noticed on the one Bates went after and didn't get, Williams was right there to make the tackle. Really good to see them working together back there this early.
CJ U.... this guy is coming into his own and is another playmaker.
Vigil- Still flying around. Gonna be a good one. Absolutely can not wait to get Vontaze, Preston and Nick on the field together.
Billings- He got more push this game than he did in Indy (which was none), I hope it's just who he is going against, and not that he's regressing. I'd like to see him on the field with Geno occasionally, but they seem to be rotating as a unit with Billings and Glasgow coming in together.
