  1. You know, Rapp is really playing well this season. I keep thinking we need to upgrade both safety positions, but I think Rapp is a real asset.
  2. I'd trade two Olivers for one Buckner.
  3. I'll be sure to confine my comments to praise for Allen from now on. Man, that second pick was a thing of beauty, wasn't it? No hesitation on his part.
  4. Just not up the middle, where they're getting stuffed.
  5. Oh, sorry. I forgot observations are forbidden on the board.
  6. Allen has had one quality throw this game, to Knox. The rest have been check-downs Skylar Thompson could make.
  7. Well, I'll credit him for being alert, but he didn't rush effectively, and Rousseau would have recovered the fumble he caused if Hamlin hadn't. So, no, Hamlin is not off the hook yet. You blitz a safety, you got to get there, not go winging by or, as he did earlier in the game, get blocked easily. All credit to Rousseau on this one.
  8. Agree. They just get stuck to single blocks. No juice, no movement, no push. Time to blitz.
  9. Allen is hurried every time he drops back, while Flacco is making himself a sandwich every time.
  10. One of the problems with playing practice squaders.
  11. 8 yards on a punt return is reasonable.
  12. What happened to him? I missed it.
  13. Shoot, just let one of the coaches play back there if they just want someone to eventually get to the play. Hyde simply could not play worse than this.
  14. Well, consider they're playing with ten guys and, you know, Hamlin, who is out there as a guarantee against plays of more than 50 yards.
  15. He does have that look on his face, like he's stunned or bewildered. I remember that look from his early years.
  16. Compared to the offense, for one thing. They rush is awful, but they've gotten two turnovers leading to ten points. They let the Colts score ten, so sounds like a wash to me. No, it's the offense that sucks, especially Allen, who is playing like a rookie so far.
  17. Especially with the refs ready to call roughing the passer if the rush does happen to get through.
  18. Oliver invisible as usual, this time against a rookie.
  19. This game could get away from them fast. Defense is doing fine, but the O-line and Allen look awful.
  20. No rush, again. (And again and again.) They won't get past the first round of the playoffs if every quarterback they face has enough time to eat a sandwich back there.
  21. No arc at all. Too fast and flat, narrowing the margin for error way down. Even if the throw is perfect, it's going a lot faster than if he just put a little air under the ball.
  22. Not very impressive. Poor decisions and poor throws by Allen. His runs are getting stuffed, too. You can't let mediocre teams hang around like this.
  23. Yeah, but put play pretty much anyone 40 yards off the ball and he'll make tackles and the occasional INT. Hell, put Bishop that far back.
