  • So jim harbaugh can challenge a penalty?

    Because...why? He won a super bowl?

    Weeden leaving? This is surreal

  • Gift penalty for the browns it looked like.

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

  • We SUCK.

  • I think it's obvious Weeden is better than Campbell.

    Weeden has just a little less suck in him.

    Anyone can challenge a tip on a pass interference call. Those are the rules

  • I never stated Weeden was great, just that he is better than Campbell.

    However, he really only had one bad throw the whole game. The rest were either dropped or no one was open. It will be interesting to see how he does with Gordon assuming Weeden isn't seriously hurt..

  • Wow. Once again this shit was hard to watch. Can't imagine Ravens fans will be feeling particularly good about that win either. Pretty ugly game.

  • Just no offense. None.

  • Well... Weeden was much improved, still made some bonehead mistakes w/ delay of game penalties, but he hit his throws and worked around the pocket much better. Playcalling was slightly better, but we should have ran TRich all 3 plays on that first drive inside the 10. Defense was awesome, but again were hurt by such an inept offense. Our WRs are useless. Cameron disappeared. We REALLY need Gordon back, and I really think he will make a huge difference in this offense.

    Overall... we needed to adjust to their pressure, especially on 3rd down. Where were the short slants? Screen passes? Draw plays? Anything that counters such a stern pass-rush??

    Again, I saw some improvement, and I think we will continue to improve each week, it just wasn't enough to win yet... we'll get there just not as fast as we'd all like...

    Cameron disappeared because he was the only reliable target the Ravens had to cover. I'm hoping with Gordon back they both can get open. If not, it's going to be a long season offensively..

  • Josh Gordon, the savior? Wow we are in trouble

  • It's honestly like the team watches the same film on how to lose each Saturday night. Take a slim half time lead off 6-10 points? Check. Make zero adjustments on the offensive side of the ball? Check. Run less than 20 offensive plays and let the defense tire out? Check. Ultimately give up 10-17 points and lose. Done and done.

    Not totally. Weeden is rapidly proving he isn't the answer. Greg Little is the reincarnation of Braylon Edwards. Trent Richardson is a wasted pick. Buster Skrine may have speed, but he has zero coverage skills. Incidentally, I saw Cousins get pancaked on a pass rush, and Schwartz stand like a statue and do his best matador move letteing the Rats OLB proceed unimpeeded to the qb.

    OTOH, Cameron is OK, the defense is studly, and Mingo showed why he was a hig draft pick.

  • Receivers can't get open. Running game is too predictable. Right side of the line is too porous. Only a Hall of Fame QB could succeed with this team. Maybe. Gordon returning should help, but we have to get the line patched up too.

    And we have a winner!!!! You sir hit the nail on the head; you could not be more correct

    Based on your other commennts I don't see how you conclude Weeden isn't the answer.

    The guy was under pressure all day and if receivers weren't dropping it, it was because the ball wasn't going their way because they weren't open.

    What i don't get is why we never bring in any of the other receivers, like Cooper. He at least makes some moves to try to get open and seems to catch everything.

    I don't think Weeden had anything to do with this loss....and yep, I saw cousins get shoved on his ass just as you did. Hell, I can do that. Cousins had grass stains on his ass.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

    Our problem seems to be that the game is too long.

    For 30 minutes we play decent, but after that apparently it's nap time.

    Next week, Gordon back, RG should be back - win or pack it up for the year.

    Don't care who we're playing, win it next week or just pack it up for the year, they're not going to do it.

    Hard to remember, but we have won two halves...

    Yup... I said Campbell is a shot QB, and saw nothing to change that opinion.

    Nice capsule assessment... O-line actually fared better than I was anticipating, but they could have stood some play-calling help.

    And again, I think Gordon helps not only with his contibution, but also helps by motivating Little. We won't have to wait long to find out.
