            I would say that every team is a pro team. Hence the any given Sunday saying. That used to be the way we won a game or two a season. Hopefully that shoe is on the other foot now

              It's pre-season.  And the last time we saw the Ravens offense on the field in meaningful action they were....anemic at best.

                  Speaking of run first QBs- anyone else see Kyler Murray's highlights? Make that lowlights. Sacked for a safety. Thought he did a most excellent DeShone Kizer impersonation. Missing guys by 10 yards.

                    He reminded me of Kessler taking the safety his rookie preseason.

                      even if we are technically csstly more talented oversll than the ravens....those are two games im deeply cincerned about because of the physicality of that o line. Hopefully baker csn torch them early and force them to throw. Otherwise our interior DL rotation may get exposed. Thst interior o line wore our guys out last year. They're a no nonsense inside power run team.

                            Ravens lost a lot of talent and leadership on defense:   CJ Mosley, Suggs, their leaders on defense, gone.  They got Earl Thomas back though...but can he make up for what that front 7 lost.

                              I agree on TN; I think Vrable will prove a good coach and they have talent. They had some impressive wins last year and they should be better. My main knock on them is at QB. Marcus Ardel Taulauniu Mariota doesn't impress me. Big deal, he can run. Lamar can run circles around him. The thing with the Ravens is they are so physical. Now with Ingram in the fold, they are gonna hammer teams more than ever. I thought Henry was underrated before last season, and he proved he was. It's very hard to win a ring without a decent passing attack, but you can win a ton of games (and a div.) with a D and a running game, just not a championship in most cases.

                              I think the team that wins the north is gonna earn it. It could be a brutal battle -  3 legit contenders IMO. This is the most anticipated season we've had in the AFCN/central we've had in years...like too many to even count. When was the last time the season opened with the Browns being a legit factor? 88?

                                They don't "scare me" like a Zeke, Barkley, Bell or McCaffrey. But they are about pounding, not flash, although Henry has shown he can take it to the house. Dude is BIG and fast. Already this preseason they have shown they will hammer you with Ingram. And yes, they did lose a lot on D, but they have a way of replenishing just when you think they are dry. Suggs was on his last legs, Mosely is good, but not great. Still have players in the secondary. Have beef up front.

                                   I think Vrabl will prove a good coach and they have talent.

                                  He will be a good coach because of his connection to Norton,OH.  (his Dad was a football coach at my high school).

                                  And this southeast side of Summit County has produced some other good coaches:   Bo Schembechler, Ara Parseghian, John Mackovic, Josh McDaniels.

Dude is BIG and fast. Already this preseason they have shown they will hammer you with Ingram. And yes, they did lose a lot on D, but they have a way of replenishing just when you think they are dry. Suggs was on his last legs, Mosely is good, but not great. Still have players in the secondary. Have beef up front.

                                      Yes, I messed that up. Had TN on the brain.

                                        even if we are technically csstly more talented oversll than the ravens....those are two games im deeply cincerned about because of the physicality of that o line. Hopefully baker csn torch them early and force them to throw. Otherwise our interior DL rotation may get exposed. Thst interior o line wore our guys out last year. They're a no nonsense inside power run team. 

                                        Is that the with the “new” offense they plan on running I wonder?

                                        Well, when I heard "new offense" I assumed it was a more open passing attack....to me, they look like they are even MORE physical than last year. They are hammering teams with big backs, they are letting Jackson run, even in the preseason. I saw no signs of a more sophisticated passing game. Maybe they are hiding it for now. Jackson does not have it in him to be a pocket passer, it's not gonna happen. Teams are going to stack the box and dare them to beat 'em deep. I'm not sure he can. But I still think they can win north of 9 games.

                                          if ya ask Belicheck? he'd tell ya to worry about the Titans week one.(i agree)...Ravens open in Miami & play at KC before us in week 5.(am still looking tickets)..Our loaded box will look different with Richardson & Vernon now lining up at Yanda's side, who Lamar feeds off the most..WR M.Brown will have Ward & Greedy that can press cause Lamar has no deep ball..M.Wilson should load up covering their TE's..Do you remember the look on ? face shaking Lamar's hand at end of Season?..Get your ? ready!! cause the NFL will be on notice week 5, flushing some Rat turds in Balt-more 

                                          I would say that every team is a pro team. Hence the any given Sunday saying. That used to be the way we won a game or two a season. Hopefully that shoe is on the other foot now

                                          Always blew my mind how some weeks we would be unstoppable and then next week can't even produce a first down til half way thru the 2nd quarter and that was from a penalty. How so many wr would all drop every pass that comes at them and the week before they were making 1 handed circus catches. It is time we have a team that plays strong all season week in ad week out.
