I dont care who you are, that's awful. blame Flowers for not sitting on his route, but that's being incredibly generous to the QB making several bad moves in short order. Combine that with a) Overthrowing Bateman forcing the catch in bounds and b) not spiking immediately after... There is a reason some QBs always win close games and some lose them - these are the things you look at as the deciding factors. I think he bailed out of the pocket multiple times in the last minute because for some reason the Ravens were repeatedly asking a RB to pick up Chris Jones. It was bizarre.

You can add race into my statement and it still holds true. He's a black man who didn't hire an agent and still got paid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was bizarre. I don't now how a contenting team completely revamps their OL on the fly in one offseason. The Bengals do that, but that is because Tobin can't draft OL like Beane can't draft WRs.

It was bizarre. Yea, I have no idea why Hill was tasked with Jones. Ravens made several critical mistakes on that drive and were bailed out by Likely and Bateman (until they weren't) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He threw so many poor balls tonight including 50/50 balls where good ball placement is a catch or DPI. He's just not accurate enough to make those throws... and when I say accurate I'm not talking about completion percentage. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still feel the same. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Blitz Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 The Ravens are not good enough to go 10-6 and get into the playoffs. Their trenches are awful on both sides of the ball. I don’t see 10 wins - especially if they lose to us. It’s in Baltimore. Just a hunch but that could be a potential massive tiebreaker game when we look back in December.

Boatdrinks Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 13 minutes ago, BillMafia716ix said: Well Keon Coleman you’re on deck. The Chiefs have found their new toy and we just gave it to em. That whole draft thing is so overblown. I’d take Andy Reid as my OC over any rook WR. Heck they didn’t even cover him on that 2nd half TD. Reid could’ve scored on that one. Is there any doubt that they’d have simply drafted a different WR, and the best play designer in football would get the ball to him ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes because he decided he would be willing to get less to get a fully guaranteed contract to which some is boring - the Browns overpaid on a fully guaranteed contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
