Don't they slide 99% of the time when they run?

The "connection" between Josh and his receivers is finally here this year (and hasn't really been in his first two years). Our WRs know what to do when Josh does this, or that. This was an earlier criticism I expressed about Davis (and it really wasn't fair to the rookie). To have WRs know where Josh wants them, or needs them, to be, when Josh improvises is simply poetry in motion. These WRs, including the rookie, are special to watch along with JA.

I'm not sure we played too far below par on offense. Points are going to come at a premium for the rest of this trip. Some points could come from special teams (getting our O better field position, or even running a kick back) or from our D (getting us better field position, turnovers or even scoring). I guess we can expect our O to do more. I'm just not too sure they can. I want our D and special teams to play better than they did on Saturday (except for TBass; this kid is rockin it).

I don't think they cancelled it. Wright said that he wouldn't hold Colin to his side of the bet as a birthday present to Colin. With the Bills winning Saturday, Colin wouldn't have had to anyways. I believe if the Bills win Saturday, Wright loses. Personally though, I don't want the Bills to eve acknowledge this guy or the bet.

The colts fumble that was not called
Pokebball replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I get what you're saying. One of Davis' sideline catches was clearly caught. The second one wasn't clearly caught in bounds. The call on the field was a catch and they couldn't see enough to over rule it. If they did though, I could have accepted it because it was that close. This fumble call was clear. From the reaction across the board, from the game announcers, to pundits and NFL players across the country, it was clearly a bad call. Colts fans on their message board even called it a bad call. I'm not critical of the call on the field. The official had one angle and only one watch of it. I'm super critical of the replay booth. They see all angles, slow motion, frame by frame. There is no excuse for them getting it wrong. But as I said after the game, I'm glad the call didn't go our way. I'd rather win the game with the call as it was called on the field. -
To start the game, an early read for Allen (1 or 2) needs to be the short routes. The Ravens have to respect Digg's and Brown's speed so they should have button hooks open all day. Make the Ravens guess which one is going to fly; Allen needs to do a good job reading the safeties and hitting his receivers on outside shoulders. Beas needs to find the opening on quick slots. Knox needs to be a quick option on flats and slants. I think the strategy with the Ravens is to play small ball in the passing game, with an occasional deep ball to keep 'em honest.
