I haven't seen a Texans game yet this year so I'm really at a loss for how bad Fitz can ever make an appearance when he's throwing to Deandre Hopkins and Andre Johnson.

I think you can toss out "right now" from that sentence. Due to the Rice fiasco I think the Ravens are going to be one of those consistently reviled teams with the Steelers and Pats.

Intruder posted:Andre has looked... mortal, so far this year That's the saddest thing I've ever heard. Andre Johnson has played football the way rainbow's love. I'm not sure what I mean by that but it's how I feel in my brain, my dick, and my heart. If Johnson has finally exited the Prime of his career it's more than a little depressing.

football fuckerman posted:Shanahan is pretty good but the inability to get that first down late in the game is so frustrating. If you're keeping score of how well Shanahan did that game, it's the equivalent of taking an offensive score off the board when you give the ball back with time and a short field. Very hard to imagine the defense preventing the Ravens from gaining 15 or 20 yards there The final two Browns offensive drives both ended on drops by WRs on balls that would have gotten the first. You can justifiably complain about 1st and 2nd down calls but those 3rd down plays would have moved the chains but for bad hands and imperfectly thrown footballs. I hate that the Ravens D has been getting credit for that when did nothing to earn those three and outs.

He was actually totally healthy before the hip injury last year. That said the only year he was the team's starter was 2012 as we had Todd Heap before that.

FeedingHam2Cats posted:Actually the new starter is James Hurst, a guy who wasn't drafted due to a leg injury his last year at UNC Oh. Seriously, why the hell is Reid still on our team? Guy is just terrible at football/being a human being. Hurst was also terrible in the preseason but at least showed progress as the games progressed. We're still likely screwed, at the very least against Carolina's front 7.

Sour Diesel posted:Not only that but KO - Zuttah - Yanda is a really good interior line and has been making the job easy on the committee of RBs I'll never call Kelechi Osemele KO. Kelechi Osemele is too fun to say in my head. Yeah, he and Yanda have been superb but Zuttah has been the definition of mediocre. He'll get pushed here and there, or let a free runner go doubling up on Yanda's guy but he's also had solid plays being a god send on 4th and short. Maybe we aren't in as much trouble as I fear but the O-line has by far been the best thing about our offense this year and even when they've give Joe a full 5 seconds it doesn't seem like our receiver are consistently getting open. I doubt the removal of Pitta and a less experienced LT is going to help that situation any.

Dexo posted:Nope, Everyone in the Ravens org loving loved Ray Rice, He would have taken that half year suspension(maybe a year) and come back. Nationally they would poo poo on the decision for a while, but have some photo ops with the wife, have stories about the counseling they are going through "leak", and go on with the fatal mistake/changed man narrative, like they were already doing that when they mentioned that he had stopped drinking. Not only are you right but before the second video dropped Ravens president Dick Cass was already having discussions with House of Ruth about donations from the Ravens organization and Rice going to a support group they hold and eventually being a spokesperson for House of Ruth.

Sour Diesel posted:So one of the unexpected (to me, anyway) things about the season so far is the effectiveness of Justin Forsett. Guy has been a great compliment to Pierce and Lorenzo's running style and is turning out to be a great 3rd down back. I don't know about any running back. Pierce has looked mediocre at best and I'm a little disappointed he'll be returning so soon after Taliaferro's performance last week.

E_Motion posted:I hope the defense being rear end again combined with Rex maybe losing his job means we can get Rex back as DC. Or Pagano, but I don't think he's anywhere near the hot seat. I've had that dream as well but with the spotlight Rex has had the past few years he'll never be a DC again. The man is well on his way to ESPN, or maybe, if we're lucky, he'll replace Schiano on the NFL Network.

He's a natural SS when we needed a FS and he played well enough to get paid elsewhere. I haven't even looked at the Cap for next year but with Rice and Pitta my guess is it will be ugly.
