qnet 1,158 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Wow. It looked tough but I didn't know it was that tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mloe68 1,521 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 374 yards and only 1 INT. Just amazing how advanced our QB is for being 14 games into his career. And Andy is adamant he's still a few years from really getting it. If I'm in the AFC West, I'm going all in to find a franchise QB or else they know this division could be ours for most of the next decade. Right now none of the other teams are set at QB beyond the short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moons314 2,463 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I don’t know that I’d call what the ravens did a success. We were two missed fgs away from being over 30 points again. We did this with backups at half the offensive positions. They did get pressure and make things more difficult than other teams have, but they still didn’t stop us.

Thegoatee 1,783 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Ravens corners must be really underrated. You cannot get away with that many pressures and stacking 10 guys 5 yards from the line if they don’t jam all the WRs for a good couple of seconds. I think our main problem most of the second half was the really long drive they had in the 3rd. The offense was off the field a lot. Game reminded me too much of a college option offense. Their only hope is to keep it close and have long drives. It wasn’t sustainable and if not for Butker’s missed FG and the awful punt coverage we win easily.

We are really banged up on offense and still got the job done against a really good defense. We just aren't used to seeing the QB elevate the players around him around here. Give Andy a lot of credit too for coaxing 130 total yards from his backup running back who had barely had that all season. And two TDs from another guy who had barely had two touches all season. At some point this has to catch up to us though. Question is can we finish this thing off and get those players that need it some much needed rest before that happens.

I guarantee Dave Toub is not happy at all about the special teams play and I'll bet we see that unit really rev up its play on Thursday night.

Special teams was bad. Snaps on the 3s weren’t good and coverage was even worse. Even with that we still won. Yesterdays game reminded me of the chiefs of the 90s, except it was Baltimore doing the impersonation. Run the ball, win special teams, keep it close and hope you can pull it out at the end. That will win a lot of games, but against teams with superior qb play a single turnover dooms you. Baltimore should make the playoffs but they are dead in the water in January.

DieHard 2,061 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I would not bring Flacco back this year. This kid has a different dimension that forces you to shadow him or he will hang a 100 on you running. It is not a recipe for a long career, but right now he is a handful. I would ride that until he gets destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetlord 10,210 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 When is Flacco's contract up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfriend 1,151 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Ravens D had an exceptional gameplan and really would have looked even better if Eric Weddle wasn't freelancing. If I were the Ravens, I'd stick with the hot hand at QB but I am anticipating that unibrow will be starting again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will they? If it were me, I’d cut him and draft a qb. He’s not a bad qb, but he’s not worth another big contract either. May as well let someone else pay him.

With no cap hit I think they might try to ride Jackson for a while spending the money on some other position. Rookie QB deals are just too tempting to sit behind a questionable high priced veteran.

So you draft another QB in 2019 after drafting the QB in the 1st round of the 2018 draft to replace the QB you drafted in the 1st rd 2008........
