Wayne Arnold

Good. He can take snaps from center for a couple months before Allen is ready. Johns pick up prostitutes. Not the other way around.

So is he a defensive end? Or is he a linebacker?

Yes. In both 2011 and 2012.

Does this mean Shaq Lawson moves to DT?

Did Tom Brady legally change his name to Jeremy Hill?

Might need to upgrade the coaching staff by then.

I thought the OLine did fine yesterday. Provided plenty of time for both QBs. The run blocking struggled but that will always happen with 9 man fronts daring you to pass the ball. The much bigger concerns (at least against the Ravens) are Peterman and the wide receivers. I was also disappointed in Daboll’s schemes but I’m willing to give him some more time.

Reaching out to catch a ball = "circus, highlight reel catch" Good Lord.

I wonder how much they'll offer for Peterman.

This is what good coaching looks like.

This would likely be an improvement over their current "process" but we both know that their egos would never allow something like that.

I was thinking more like 37-9 but yeah.

His speed and athleticism has resulted in him being an overrated WR his whole life. He has never been able to develop ball skills. Speed doesn't mean much in this league if you can't find the football when it's in the air.

I loved that he threw a perfect touchdown pass to Benjamin. I also liked how he consistently kept his eyes down field while finding pockets behind the OLine and making solid throws. I'd still like to see more "safe" throws but that will come with time imo. Don't be so sure about that. Look at these screenshots. Look at where the defender is and where the ball is. Any average high school receiver reaches out over the defender and catches the ball with his hands.

Exactly what I expected the Alabama homer to reply with.

If it makes anyone feel better, I fully expect the Ravens to go 19-0 this season and defeat teams by an average of 40 points.

I fully expect Peterman to start again next Sunday. They don't want to ruin Allen around these trash players and they know that as soon as they start him, there's no turning back. Not saying I agree with it.

Is it unfair to expect an NFL receiver to be able to catch a football with his hands?

Dude, come on. Minute Bol couldn't have gotten a hand on that pass.

The defender is in the worst position possible. Not even close to looking at the ball. You couldn't ask for a better opportunity as a wide receiver. Reach out and catch the damn ball.

Be specific. Which of his 14 or 15 throws today had bad placement?

Throw #1: Incomplete to Zay Jones - should have been called pass interference (0-1) Throw #2: Rushed out of pocket after getting out of a sure sack, throwaway (0-2) Throw #3: 14 yards complete to Andre Holmes. Good protection, good job by Allen to make multiple reads. (1-3, 14 yards) Throw #4: Perfect pass across the middle in the back of the end zone to Benjamin for a would-be touchdown, flat out dropped by KB (1-4, 14 yards) Throw #5: Quick check down to Murphy, drop (1-5, 14 yards) Throw #6: Throw away (had plenty of time, probably could have given someone a chance to make a play) - (1-6, 14 yards) Throw #7a: Throws a bullet across the middle on 3rd and 10, complete to Kerley for 15 yards...however, called back for holding (1-6, 14 yards) Throw #7b: 24 yard completion on 3rd and 18 to LThomas. Made multiple reads, found a nice pocket, nice throw (2-7, 38 yards) Throw #8: Incomplete to LThomas. A little high (15 yards across the middle) but went through Thomas' hands (2-8, 38 yards) Throw #9: Deep pass incomplete down the left sideline to Foster. An NFL receiver makes the play more often than not - but Foster isn't an NFL receiver (2-9, 38 yards) Throw #10: Threw a solid pass while about to get hit, incomplete. Gave Kerley a chance to make a play with pressure in his face but good play by the defensive back. (2-10, 38 yards) Throw #11: Sideline pass complete to Zay Jones for 10 yards and a first down (3-11, 48 yards) Throw #12: Easy pitch and catch to a crossing Jason Croom for 10 yards (4-12, 58 yards) Throw #13: Nice 14-yard throw to Zay Jones on the run rolling right (5-13, 72 yards) Throw #14: Deep throw toward the left side of the end zone to lala land (5-14, 72 yards) . Overall, showed some good things, tons of potential but still a rookie we all must be patient with.

If only Allen could throw a more accurate ball.

You aren't. You just like giving--eh, never mind.
