The Ravens wouldn't have sent the house every play and played cover 0 if they thought we could pass vertically. They're playing Darnold in an entirely different way. Allen got injured and had no threat of his legs three rushes for allen shows you how much that changed the game plan. And call me a homer but I thought allen looked pretty decent in the second half. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Just now, CincyBillsFan said: My observations of the 1st half: * Our D really played good Sunday. This Ravens O is scary and we definitely kept them on the wrong foot most of the game. The Jets have a decent D and the Ravens are cutting right through them. * Gage had the Jets well prepared for what the Ravens D might throw at them. * The Jets return game has been outstanding tonight. * Darnold, like Allen is a young QB on the upswing. Like Allen, Darnold is also going to run hot & cold. That last series you had the overthrow of an open WR and then a very bad INT. It happens. * And for as well as Jackson has played tonight, he's had at least 3 very bad passes. Good QB's throw bad passes - who would have thunk? Thursdays. These games have got to go.

It's all RPOs with him pulling the ball out and throwing to a wide open guy 5 yards downfield and them falling forward for a first down. Earlier this year they had the splash plays, but now their offense is just a machine. They just churn out yardage play after play and dominate the TOP. Pretty sure it's read option not RPO, but I was referring specifically to Jackson's TDs...just for my own curiosity's sake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravens Defense made Allen, Watson, Garropolo and Goff all look foolish but Darnold is they guy they can’t stop? The Jets scored 7 points, easy fella. Should have kicked the FG/ And Darnold is a solid QB 2018 Draft 1) Jackson 2a) Allen 2b) Darnold 3) Mayfield 4) everyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blank Stare Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 1 minute ago, jrober38 said: I've seen a couple people post here that Allen was the least accurate starting QB in the NFL last year on passes over 30 yards. He hit a few late in the year to Foster, but prior to that it was the exact same then as it has been all this season. The offense was so God awful last year, it coulda been an oasis in the desert, but it felt like the deep ball was clicking more last year. I like Josh, but I’m not ready to anoint him. You’ve got to love his attitude and work ethic though. No question he has work to do, but every game is different. Hard to compare what Darnold is getting right now vs. the looks Josh got. Doesn’t seem like they are hardly blitzing at all, much less relentless cover 0s. Point is, I’d love another crack at these guys. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every play there seems to be an option of some sort, if not two. It's a really fun offense to watch. Crazy that this was our OC a few years ago that so many people said was a liability.

This doesn't speak to any catch and carries... Not sure if there is a source for that information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILBillsfan Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I just don't understand why they do not have teams that are coming off the bye weeks play the Thursday night games vs short weeks for the players. Much better for player safety and would put better games on then. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I want the Jets to win to screw their draft. I want the Ravens to win to get home field over the Cheaters. Ravens win the tie breaker there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JESSEFEFFER Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Lofting deep throws on a windy day is not a recipe for success. A lower trajectory, power throw can be better placed but it makes for a tougher over the shoulder catch -- the Knox catch and Beasley drop. The blitz happy Buddy Ryan Eagles came to then Rich stadium and the theme was short throws with big YAC. Slants and shallow cross with rubs. That's a windy day offense against pressure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman made Kaepernick look decent. Jackson is an entirely different animal. What's nuts is that the Ravens receivers are really poor. Will be crazy to see what they can do once they add some real pass catchers on the outside who command additional attention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
