positives from a crushing loss
-
Oh, I disagree with that. Our linebacker play is far improved and the run defense is far superior to last year.
Flacco could throw it at will on us today if it wasn't for dropped passes this game wouldn't have been close.
Philly was 4.6 ypc against us and today was Terrance West and Justin Forsett.

Right....Pitta ate our LB's and safetys alive....
Kindred might be a good tackler, but that old broken man(Pitta) took him to school today on coverage.....

Sorry guys pissed off and drunk after our loss didn't expect to get jumped on like that.
I tailgated, was jacked up after scoring 3 TDs in a row - then we blew it in spectacular fashion

Yep, a good, tough entertaining game where the team looked improved from the week before. Still not good enough, but it's about what I expected this year as the young kids learn on the fly.
Definitely looked better than last week...which is an improvement.....excepting Coleman, the vets made most of the plays tho....rookies were fairly weak this week...
Team never quit. Played it out to the end and never gave an inch.
Say what?....cmon Ag....they gave an inch and then some...
Our offensive line sucks balls and our defense sucks bad well.
Shouldn't have let 2 pro bowlers walk
Right.....watching the first quarter, it was almost all plays by McCown, Crow, Barny, Hawkins $ Duke moving that team down field....and big plays on D by Davis and Haden and Kirksey that were setting the tone......which is why I wish we had just signed a couple/few more competent vets to throw into the mix.....still wouldve been plenty of opps for the rookies and, with a decent line, we could actually win a few....
Oh, I disagree with that. Our linebacker play is far improved and the run defense is far superior to last year.
Run D did look a lil better this week.....far superior?....no way......
Linebackers are a smidge better, simply because Kruger is gone and Kirksey has stepped it up another notch.....Schubert and Ogbah are not lighting it up tho, so to me, the OLB's are not superior to what the other guys (Orchard, Kruger, Mingo) brought...at least not yet...

But they're still out there, under game day pressure, learning under fire and that can only forge them quicker, or reveal that they can't handle too. Either way, players get better playing in games, not watching from the sidelines.

The pass rush has to improve, hell Flacco had all day to throw with a 3 or 4 man rush.

are kicker sucks
To be fair, he missed a 52 yard field goal. If anything sucks its our field goal protection.
Ruining threads since 1897. -
Well...Cam Erving must have had a big game!!!....cause I kept hearing his name...over and over....which is uber rare for a center......

Bingo, we had that problem with Coon Dawg as our kicker.To be fair, he missed a 52 yard field goal. If anything sucks its our field goal protection.
Someone needs to realize that maybe it isn't the kicker!

I mean the guy game in on the left side untouched.

He was taken out of the locker room on a stretcher after the game. Apparently something with his ribs/back that he missed up early in the game.

I'm surprised by the comments on defending the run and our linebackers. Short term memory? Do you not remember our inability to set the edge and those 150+ rushing yards against us last year? But I'm not a football guru so can someone look up the ave. and rank vs. last year.

I can't believe the ratbirds oline didn't get at least 9 flagrant oling holding calls.
that apparently isn't a flag this year. At least not for the better teams in the nfl.
I mean, look at the helmet to helmet hits on Cam Newton vs Denver.
No ejections.

It's more situational. When Philly needed to run the ball they did and Baltimore was down early and we couldn't stop their passing attack so they didn't need to run. In the 4th quarter when they ran the ball effectively and at that point our defense was probably exhausted but those are how I've seen the first two this season. Last year was terrible but I don't see this year as being good, just not as bad.

Yeah...I remember.....like it was just last week....oh wait, it was.....
Since "last year" I watched 4 preseason games where we ranked dead last against the run....then I watched a bad team rip our ass last week for 130+yards rushing....so 'since last year" Ive seen exactly 1 game that we looked somewhat competent against the run....and that game was today(or at least 1/2 a game)....
so, no, Im not gonna take one decent game and declare this run D "vastly improved" or anything like that, especially being just 1 week removed from an embarrassing defensive performance(run and pass)......

Well at least Danny looked like he belonged out there today.

I am beginning to have hope that he will live up to where he was drafted. He has a long way to go, but he's looking better for sure.

I wish we were seeing this growth with our QB of the future under center. Even if these guys start gelling, they need a QB to lead them. If we draft our guy, it'll take 1-2 more years of losing to get him up to speed...
Other than that, I see a few playmakers starting to emerge and it just feels different than past regimes.
