Ravens tryin to prove to the world dat Flacco is an "elite" QB will be their downfall

[STAN JONES]

Ray Rice is a undersized back and we have a unproven rookie backing him up

they are limiting his touches on purpose cause we need him for the playoffs

 

[STAN JONES]

I mean are you surprised Harbaugh is pulling an Andy Reid? I mean he was coaching under him not that long ago

Ray Rice needs 25-30 touches EVERY game. The Ravens are my AFC pick to go to the SB but they aren't going there without controlling the clock. But their defense looks like that will prevent them from getting deep in the playoffs if they get there at all

do you really think he would last a full season getting 25-30 touches a game?

 

[ecnirp1]

he's barely above average. and certainly not good enough to the point where the lion's share of the offense should be placed on his shoulders.

and of course he's going to post decent stats when he's throwing the ball so often. but baltimore is really lucky to be at 5-2 with this style of play.

 

[Da King]

that score has to be a misprint

 

[USSInsiders]

Who gives a shyt? They're done. Their defense got eviscerated. When you're down big, you get desperate and the play calling becomes one dimensional. This team's morale looked as bad their defense. They aren't a great road team, but still, didn't look good today.

One bad game and this dude is "average" at best? Flacco has taken us to the playoffs four straight years and almost got us to the Super Bowl last year. He's a good qb not elite but far from average.

And before someone says he only wins because of our D, we had much better D's the years after our Super bowl year and before Flacco/Harbs arrived. A prime Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Bart Scott, Chris Mcalister, etc. Not to mention Heap, Jamal Lewis we had even better teams and we couldn't even win one damn playoff game before Flacco arrived.

Alot of hate in here. Flacco is a good QB, not yet elite but definite not average/slightly above average. Cam needs to get more creative with his play calling like how he was in Flacco's rookie year. Flacco's had late game heroic moments, he can make throws that most QB's can't make just based off his arm strength but he will also make throws that leave you scratching your head.

And let's face it, with the D looking a ball control offense just isn't gonna cut it. I'm all for the offense being built around the passing game. It's mostly been a success.

They got down early and were forced into being a one dimensional team.

nah, I have Ray Rice in fantasy. Cam Cameron been doing this fukkery all year.

I wholeheartedly agree. coordinators are dumbasses for trying to "prove" something and stay sooo stubborn. take what your D gives you and keep your ego in check.

exactly. Too many of these offensive coordinators want to prove their "genius" by coming up with "creative" plays that end up doing fukk all. Its annoying.

Get into a 1st and goal situation by running on 7 straight plays, and then decide to go 4 wide, empty backfield .

nah, its Cam Cameron. Harbaugh was just a special teams coach.

he's been pretty durable throughout his career even the years he was getting a lot of touches

Less Flacco, more Rice

and @mastermind, yeah you're right it is Cameron. BAL fans have been calling for his head for ages now, Flacco saved his job last year in the AFCCG and Evans drop

 

[AVXL]

He's decent, but he's no Matt Ryan

Not to defend Flacco since I believe he's a top 12 QB, but he doesn't have great options at wide receiver. Torrey Smith, while improving, has trouble working through press coverage and beating his man constantly, and Boldin lost a couple steps. He's checking it down not because he doesn't go through his progressions but because guys aren't getting open.

The defense is in shambles and they lack weapons on offense, this is not a Superbowl contender.

Nah, the Ravens have weapons that are just fine, but Killa Cam can't use them. His Air Coryell or whatever playbook is
The Ravens passing game is 65% send all receivers deep, 25% comebacks and outs, and 10% whatever plays that fool nobody half the time. No intermediate or short creative route running game at all, and teams know all the routes the WR'S/TE's are going to run, which is why recievers can barely get more that 4 inches of seperation.

The O-line is horrible at pass blocking, but let's keep calling plays that take 8 minutes to develop...

Flacco is 4-15, Rice has 9 carries for 47 yards, but lets throw it 12 straight times...

2nd and short, so let's run shotgun

I HATE THIS BAFOON

 

[mastermind]

yeah, I dont think this thread is a shot at Flacco but instead their idiot coordinator

 

[BLAZO da GAWD]

Flacco isn't good enough to carry an offense like brees, both manning, Rodgers, Brady, Ben, etc. he should be used like how the Niners use Alex smith.
