Predictions four games in? (2018)
-
Apparently Peppers is being harrassed around town, such a shame.
cut the guy some slack it’s not on him
I mean, seriously, who does this?
I never understood hating players because of their performance, unless their performance was bad due to a lack of effort.

There's no excuse for this behavior. Only thing I can think of is that fans are simply tired of it. At some point we have to stop with the moral victories, and actually bring home real ones. This does NOT give fans the right to harass players, ever, but I see why it happens.
Could one player just win the effing game? Could we have a guy just say enough? That's what it's going to take, and to be honest? This is where I EXPECT Myles Garrett to win the game. This is where I EXPECT him to do whatever it takes to bring us the W. I'm obviously NOT putting the loss on his shoulders, but he's the #1 pick....he's the guy I kept waiting for to end the game.
Our injuries will now start to mount up. Our chances to win a game are quickly running out, and you KNOW the Ravens are BEYOND confident about the game Sunday.

We are bound to yet another, rebuilding season..
4-12

I'd be happy with 4-11-1. That would mean I get to watch 3 more victories, and as I look at schedule, I'm not sure where they're coming from, lol. I think we get swept in the division again. We're going to have to find a way to beat the NFC South teams or the AFC West.

Went 1-4. I thought they’d be 1-3 and they are 1-2-1. How they get there is irrelevant to me. NFL is a bottom line league where wins matter and loses, and ties, don’t. Disappointed again this year.
The Pumpers can roll in ecstasy all they want about ties and bad luck but 0-17, 1-16 or 5-11 is all the same ole $hit to me.

I agree BUT the one difference is we now have a QB, and I believe that will all my heart. That changes everything because if it's true, we can build for the future. Not rebuild, BUILD. A QB allows us to do that. Think about it, the next draft you won't even HEAR the word quarterback. That's so huge. So yes, this is all the same old crap, we all know it deep inside. Nothing has really changed, and that's just how it is. However, we now have our QB, so while this year will suck, it doesn't mean the future will. For once.
We're not going to win many more games, and that's just how I see it. For instance, we play the Ravens this week. My only hope is that Baker Mayfield doesn't get hurt. I could give a darn about winning because I literally see no way that happens. The Ravens have the best special teams in the league. They're top 5 in every important defensive stat. They're top 5 in passing offense, and you saw what Carr did to us. Oh, by the way, the Ravens are something like 19-1 against us in the past 20 games. Bwahaha Bwahaha Bwahaha.

We still lack true speed talent on offense, please pump the brakes on Chubb people, and the O-Line is extremely inconsistent. Our defense lacks depth and special teams, with the exception of Colquitt, are horrific. You add all that up with the culture of losing and it’s going to be a tough go if it. Ward seems like a solid pick , not sure about Baker as I watched the same mistakes at OU but fingers are crossed.

I said 0-4. I figured NO WAY THEY WIN WITH HUE.
They got lucky the Jets are coached by a moron
How many more games before Hue is fired?

At least 12, so calm down.
They are only a 3 point underdog to the Ravens. This is a different team. Problem is, it is the same idiot running the show. You put a blind guy behind a Yugo, or a Maserati....the results will be the same.
Exactly. The Negative Nancys who are spouting the Ravens are looking at this as a walk though are badly mistaken. They saw what happened when the Vikings thought all they needed to do was show up against the Bills (in Minny no less) and got smoked. Call it pregame hype if you want, but the Ratbird defensive coordinator is duly impressed at what he's seen of Baker so far.

Ya know, I just thought the same thing, and I'm no optimist anymore. Problem is, I just don't see the Ravens failing to show up in a division game. On the road. Against us. But...one can hope!
Terrell Suggs had a quote a year or two ago, and it pretty much nailed it. He said, "Whenever we play the Browns, we know it'll be one of our toughest games all year. But we know that we'll make the plays in the 4th quarter, and the Browns will fold."
*nodding*

Larry, it is good to be ridong the same.bus with you again. If Hue stops his stupidity and the team stpps giving the ball away the Browns can beat anyone.

I hope that's true, I really do. Baker had a good first start against a team that really couldn't pressure him consistently. It'll be a MUCH different ball game this weekend, and I'm hoping he can adjust. To be honest, I'm just hoping he doesn't get injured. That's my biggest fear. Forget losing, I just don't want to lose my QB.

Looks like you are NOT one of the fans who think this team could potentially be 4-0 right now.
But sure, let's just blame Hue for everything that has gone against this team to start the season out ?
Good news for Baker this week, its a home game AND the defense can't be much worse than it was last week.

This is a bad, bad match up for us. Ravens have pretty much the best defense in the league, they get their best corner back in Jimmy Smith, and their defense is giving up the fewest yards per play. Btw, Ravens have given up 9 second half points ALL YEAR.
YO.

I know the Ravens are looking like the top dog in the North this year. And their defense is always legit. Basically every year.
I told a buddy before the Saints game “Do NOT expect to win this game” and we almost did.
The defense might be back in business this week. They match up a lot better against the run... I would hope
And random fact, Ratley is the number 4 on depth chart on Madden with better speed rating then Callaway and he is 6’3...And I sh”* you not, it says Peppers has a “0” kick return rating, which is a glitch or intentional.. LOL

The Saints were a very tough match up, and you're right, we played well. I guess what bothers me is that we needed a stop and couldn't get it. Sound familiar? Our defense matches up decently against Ravens, but I expect this to be a game where we punt a lot and our defense gets tired in the second half. Maybe we're down 7 in the first half and lose by 17. Something like that. Can we win? Of course. We can have a very solid game and pull it out, but I just don't see it. We're playing against a good team AND a bunch of rotten history. Tough opponents.
How do we win? We need a defensive touchdown and a monster game from Myles. We need steady pressure on Flacco and we must hold them to FG's. Last week against Oakland, the Raiders had 21 points off our 3 turnovers. We scored 10 points off our first NINE turnovers. That's a recipe for losing. We need to turn the ball over on defense, and then punch it in for 6. We get a defensive touchdown, force some turnovers and SCORE off them, and hold Ravens to FG's....we can win.
Don't be surprised to see a low scoring first half. The end of the 2nd quarter will be the witching hour. That is when we've historically given up a score and gone into half down on momentum (although we've done good this year).
The second half. This game will definitely come down to the second half.

I'll be so happy if you're right!!
OK, I'll break it down. I think there's a 90% we lose (bare with me). I believe the Ravens are the better team. I give them the edge in defense, offense (because we have a rookie QB, but it's CLOSE), and especially, ESPECIALLY special teams. I mean, we're a flat out dumpster fire on special teams, and the Ravens don't eff around.
But...BUT....we have a chance to win (I know I previously said we have no chance, but even I know there's always a prayer). I tell you one thing, we need to catch the darn ball. We also need to punch it in if/when we get to the red zone. No question. We won't win with FG attempts, promise. We also need to quash the turnovers on offense. Smart passes, catching the ball, recovering a fumble if we put it on the ground. All that needs to go our way.
What I'd really love? Another home victory. A home, DIVISION win. That would be two W's in a row, at home, and maybe...just maybe...start to develop a real homefield advantage. THAT would be cool. But am I expecting it? Sadly no. Whereas I believe we're better than last year, I don't think we're good enough to slay a giant. And make no mistake, the Ravens are a giant right now.

Were you around in the Muni days? or did they eat your tickets?
..We faced the same Mavens team that tie their cleats the same way we do twice every season. last, 27-10 at FE,Balt.1 sack us 2. Balt 0 turnovers us -4//////24-10 at Balt. 2 sacks us 3. Balt -2 turnovers, us -5 with 11 penalty's..No giant secret in the game plan here..
