GAME THREAD - Week 2 - Titans

[Iscull]

I say two more shots downfield and then kick it.

[RavNMadMan]

fuck the FG...I want a TD

[StingerNLG]

Come on, shot in the endzone. Lee Evans right hhere

[Paintballguy]

refs take forever to make an obvious call

[AmericanMoose723]

Cheap shot to the ribs... eff the Titans.

Make them pay Joe.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Yeah fuck that FG talk. This is TD time.

[Iscull]

Ed Dickson Deep.

[mjones73]

None of our receivers are getting open?

[StingerNLG]

Oh come the hell on. What kind of playcall is that??

[Iscull]

why wouldn't he throw it away? now clock is running?

[AmericanMoose723]

No checkdown garbage... take 2 shots to the endzone here.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

The 2010 Ravens offense showed up all of a sudden.

[Firststater]

Ball is having a pro-bowl game playing against LeVoir today.

[mjones73]

WTF? Flacco stands there all day and takes a sack.

[StingerNLG]

Just pure offensive shit right there.

[QuothDaRaven]

Way to use that field position. Flacco reverting to his old ways, holding on to the ball forever.

[Ravenboy2003]

Joe Boller holds the ball just waiting for someone to sack him.

[Iscull]

Titan's Pass Rusher > Steelers?

[AmericanMoose723]

Why the fuck don't you take a TO with 10 seconds left and take a shot to the endzone?!

And why the fuck can't our receivers get open?!

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

What a wasted chance

[Raveninwoodlawn]

We aren't getting open at all...Joe had his 3 seconds...and just apparently doesn't have anything.

[ravensfaninhbg]

Why wont he throw the gdamn thing

[Firststater]

As I said, Ball is having a field day today.

[Paintballguy]

i love how we took a shot there in the endzone

[AmericanMoose723]

Cundiff is $

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

0-0 game again

[Iscull]

I think Koch just said I'm not gonna fake it haha

[mjones73]

Time for Harbs to light a fire under their asses...

[Lee Van Cleef]

Titan's Pass Rusher > Steelers?

Titans coverage > Steelers

[baltimore_hokie]

Titan's Pass Rusher > Steelers?

Titans secondary >> Steelers secondary

[Ravenboy2003]

You gotta give the Titans and their fans credit. They are playing inspired and their fans are in this game like its the playoffs. I guess it's easy for their fans to root against us so hard since we have PWNED them so much down through the years.

[Jsmoove]

anyone gotta link?

[StingerNLG]

Sigh, well I guess going in tied is better than going in down 10. But there needs to be thrown chairs and some serious passion in the lockerroom. This is pathetic.

[Dont Know]

Maybe they could try some quicker passes, you know, like we saw in the preseason.

[Tyrian]

Awful for most of the half, but at least not behind at HT. Ray needs to remind them that it's still 2011

[QuothDaRaven]

It is kinda unsettling how much difficulty the O-line is having with the Titans pass-rush.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Frenchy Levluerre needs to have a seat so that Gurode can play.

[houstonravensfan]

VERY disappointing. Great teams beat up on inferior teams.

[Iscull]

Titans coverage > Steelers

True. Finnegan can cover real well. McCourty is pretty good too. Still, we gotta have some play that can get them open.

[RavNMadMan]

why wouldn't he throw it away? now clock is running?

This. He could have bought us an extra play if he just throws it away when nobody was open.

[QuothDaRaven]

I agree, stick Gurode in there instead of LeVoir.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Foxworth....man

He is not helping.

[AmericanMoose723]

Need to force them to go 3 and out on their first drive.

[StingerNLG]

The Jaguars must be a special kind of horrible is Sanchez throws two picks and the Jets are still up 15-3.

[Irish Raven]

Can't stand Finnegan but he's having an excellent game to be fair

[houstonravensfan]

So which team is the real Ravens? This one or the one that played last week?

[ravensfaninhbg]

cary williams is getting it in the ass from Britt. Awful.....

[QuothDaRaven]

I'd rather play the Steelers, lol

[AmericanMoose723]

Cowher slobbering all over the Steelers :eyes:

[festivus]

This. He could have bought us an extra play if he just throws it away when nobody was open.
Was he supposed to be able to tell nobody would *get* open, and reset all the WRs to the line of scrimmage?


So which team is the real Ravens? This one or the one that played last week?
Both. We were custom built to match up against the Steelers. The Steelers are not the Titans (see Britt, Kenny).

[AmericanMoose723]

The Jaguars must be a special kind of horrible is Sanchez throws two picks and the Jets are still up 15-3.

And they beat the Titans.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

So which team is the real Ravens? This one or the one that played last week?

Wins don't have to be pretty on the road. Just win. I don't care what it looks like as long as they take the W. Overtime or whatever else.

[Dragz]

Hopefully, this game will bring people back down to Earth

[RavenousD]

Cowher slobbering all over the Steelers :eyes:
Rothlisburger took a vicious hit to the knee and left at the end of the half limping

[festivus]

Hopefully, this game will bring people back down to Earth

:word

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

If I go to hell I think my eternal torture would be the devil playing a continuous loop of Bill Cowher talking.

[bmorebirds_24]

Hopefully, this game will bring people back down to Earth


Can you repeat this over and over please? I listened to callers all week say this on the radio.

[StingerNLG]

Rothlisburger took a vicious hit to the knee and left at the end of the half limping

Just means he'll throw 3 more TD's. Somehow that guy plays better when people think he's hurt.

The Ravens need to take care of business now so we can keep that leg up on them. We're playing a conference game, the Steelers are not.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Screw back down to earth.

If you're 2-0 and smashed Pittsburgh who cares if they just sneak away with this one.

[Ravenalytics]

If I go to hell I think my eternal torture would be the devil playing a continuous loop of Bill Cowher talking.

Mine would be Gruden.

[QuothDaRaven]

Ravens D is gonna put 6 on the board here. Ed Reed to the house. I can feel it!!!!

[Paintballguy]

Hopefully, this game will bring people back down to Earth

The Packers are losing to the Panthers right now. justsayin

[AmericanMoose723]

We need to come out on fire 2nd half...

[Ash55]

Foxworth....man

He is not helping.

Foxworth seems like he just wants no part of playing football. I am sure his mind is still on his knee but he just seems to be nowhere near the football anymore.

[RavNMadMan]

[QUOTE=festivus;309779]Was he supposed to be able to tell nobody would *get* open, and reset all the WRs to the line of scrimmage?

He is supposed to understand very quickly that no one *was* open, given the situation, another play another shot. That is all I'm saying. No hate for Joe (never have) but the situation requires a very quick decision which may or may not be correct. The ball should have come out earlier (we're talking a few seconds here).

[Paintballguy]

They need to double Britt and the cornerbacks need to start driving on these routes. They keep giving him easy catches.

[QuothDaRaven]

If I see Foxworth lined up opposite Kenny Britt one more time, I'm flying down to Nashville and kicking Pagano in the ass personally.

[bmorebirds_24]

The Packers are losing to the Panthers right now. justsayin

Who cares? Is it ok to shit the bed because the Packers are? No!!!!

[Paintballguy]

Who cares? Is it ok to shit the bed because the Packers are? No!!!!

The score is 10-10.

[Ibravenfan]

Turnovers. The team that has the most turnovers Lose.
Need to create more turnovers.

[houstonravensfan]

Who cares? Is it ok to shit the bed because the Packers are? No!!!!

AMEN!

[AmericanMoose723]

Let's Go DEFENSE!!

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Foxworth seems like he just wants no part of playing football. I am sure his mind is still on his knee but he just seems to be nowhere near the football anymore.

His lame attempt at throwing him down hard after it was all over was pathetic. The guy is ultra weak.

[QuothDaRaven]

Great, special teams getting in on the "Duh" Parade.

[StingerNLG]

Really? What the hell, put your foot on the 35! How hard is that?

[Ravenboy2003]

We need a big sack/fumble type play..

[AmericanMoose723]

Hate to see injuries, but we need to go after that injured lineman or his replacement.

[QuothDaRaven]

O-lineman down, let's GET AFTER HASSELBECK!!!!!

[Paintballguy]

blitz the left side of the o-line

[StingerNLG]

Unfuckingbelievable.

[AmericanMoose723]

Holy fuck we are making Hasselback look godlike

[QuothDaRaven]

Jesus Christ, Hasselbeck looks like Brady. We just can't get to him in time, and the receivers always have a step.

[Iscull]

Webb gettting torched.

[AmericanMoose723]

I am getting worried...

[Ravenboy2003]

We are going to lose this friggin' game..

[Iscull]

Ed wanted that pick 6.

[QuothDaRaven]

Okay, the defense is not going to be able to do shit today. Hopefully the offense made some halftime adjustments, cuz the D clearly didn't.

[AmericanMoose723]

Hold them to 3...

[Firststater]

I predict the Ravens lose this game at this point. They look like shit on both sides of the ball.

[houstonravensfan]

I have a bad feeling about this one. Deja vu, we are vulnerable to the pass.

[StingerNLG]

Suggs and Ray are getting picked up and stopped on every rush.

And their receivers are just burning our corners.

[Ravenalytics]

Turrible.

[AmericanMoose723]

Ed wanted that pick 6.

Yep, we gotta live with the gambles because they pay off more often than not.

[Iscull]

Cody movin arond.

[Paintballguy]

should have been holding

[Ravenboy2003]

No friggin' pass rush....

[Zisi]

Ugh, keep letting them get over top the D...

[AmericanMoose723]

ohh fuck now webb is hurt

[Iscull]

OMG, please get up webb.

[Ravenalytics]

No pass rush what so ever. We're going to be picked apart.

Here's your wake up call.

[StingerNLG]

Fucking 3 man rush! Why??

And now Webb is down. Ugh.

[QuothDaRaven]

Nice 3 man rush, always so clutch for us in the past....

[houstonravensfan]

Has Mattison come back to run the D?

[QuothDaRaven]

I would put Nakamura in over Danny Gorrer, that's fer sure

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Webb= drama queen?

Give the defense a breather

[AmericanMoose723]

Make the stop d

[Zisi]

Can we stop em?

[AmericanMoose723]

damn, we're getting owned

[Paintballguy]

time for the offense to step up

[Iscull]

WOW.

[Ravenboy2003]

This sucks..

[QuothDaRaven]

Fucking pathetic. Just... unbelievably pathetic.

[mjones73]

Put a fork in them, they are done today...

[Tyrian]

Well, there goes the nice 3rd Q run on D...

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Now we need to hope Flacco and the gang are awake.

[heartattackjones]

man our d looks tired.

[StingerNLG]

Fucking hell.

The Ravens just look asleep. I can't even believe what I'm seeing.

[Jsmoove]

we are getting handled

[AmericanMoose723]

talk about an emotional letdown...

[Iscull]

Alright offense. Let's go.

[Irish Raven]

Just strolled in

Awful, just awful

[Ravenalytics]

Now I know how it felt to be a Steeler's fan last week.

[AmericanMoose723]

Joe has got to be able to win games for us when the D isn't playing great... he needs to step up

[Sephy]

What a pathetic effort.

[mjones73]

Enlighten me, when the TE put on that "great" block, is he allowed to hook the pads like he did or was that another missed hold?

[QuothDaRaven]

To paste the Steelers, and then lose like this to the Titans... emotionally BRUTAL. All my notions about this team were so far off base. Inconsistency is the hallmark of an average team.

[jhoff66]

We need the offense to step up here

the D will be fine just giving up big plays at crucial times

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Joe has got to be able to win games for us when the D isn't playing great... he needs to step up

Yup.

That is absolutely what this game is now.

[Tyrian]

know we're banged up at corner, but giving up near 300 yds to the titans already?

[Iscull]

Joe has got to be able to win games for us when the D isn't playing great... he needs to step up

What if the receivers can't get open...

[Ravenalytics]

I would love to be a fly on the wall when Harbs and Ray chew the team out for this.

[QuothDaRaven]

Even though it's only the beginning of the third quarter, it just feels like if we don't score here, we may be out of it. No momentum whatsoever.

[Raveninwoodlawn]

The team obviously blew their wad last week...I expected the Titans to play us tough, but I didn't think we'd be down 7 in the 3rd.

We can't defend the pass, we can't pass and we can't run. The only positive has been our run game, but trust me, if our offense can't control the ball some in this half and our defense continues to allow long drives, we will be getting ran over in the 4th...D will get tired.

[Paintballguy]

Where are the holding calls?

[bmoreravengirl]

I have a feeling this will be one of those games where I bite my nails down to the nub and have to fill a prescription for high blood pressure meds.

[Iscull]

know we're banged up at corner, but giving up near 300 yds to the titans already?

It's because there converting on all the jump balls. I hate to say luck, but a lot of there big plays are deep balls.

[QuothDaRaven]

We need to sack Hasselbeck. Have we sacked him even once?

[bmorebirds_24]

What if the receivers can't get open...

Then they need to go!

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

All right Flacco.

If you want 100 million dollars you should show why you deserve it in a game like today.

[mjones73]

We need to sack Hasselbeck. Have we sacked him even once?

I don't think they've even touched him..

[Iscull]

The team obviously blew their wad last week...I expected the Titans to play us tough, but I didn't think we'd be down 7 in the 3rd.

We can't defend the pass, we can't pass and we can't run. The only positive has been our run game, but trust me, if our offense can't control the ball some in this half and our defense continues to allow long drives, we will be getting ran over in the 4th...D will get tired.

I figured this would be tough following last week. They are coming off of a real emotional high, and now they have to get back to reality. Hopefully they pull this one out and get back to work.

[AmericanMoose723]

Let's Go J5!!!

We NEED points here.

[Tyrian]

Flacco said he wanted on his shoulders. Here you go.

[QuothDaRaven]

Honestly, I just hope we don't turn it over here. That's how low the emotional feel is...

[camdenyard]

I would love to be a fly on the wall when Harbs and Ray chew the team out for this.

Um..Ray is part of "this".

[AmericanMoose723]

Why didn't Rice keep going and get to the edge there?

[Iscull]

Ray Rice is going to get paid. Can you imagine if we didn't have him?

[QuothDaRaven]

Wow, Ray Lewis looked so slow in that replay...

[James R(aven)]

Got to have a points scoring drive now and get back into this game!

[pyite32]

We need to sack Hasselbeck. Have we sacked him even once?

We haven't even pressured him once. That is the biggest problem I see. Other than the entire offense

[Tyrian]

Honestly, I just hope we don't turn it over here. That's how low the emotional feel is...

if they do, it'll feel like wk2 2010 again... big, emotional win against the Jets before dropping it horribly against cincy

[AmericanMoose723]

Flacco said he wanted on his shoulders. Here you go.

bingo

[QuothDaRaven]

False start on Oher? Shocker....

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Oher with another penalty

[AmericanMoose723]

damnit oher, get your shit together

[Raveninwoodlawn]

WTF Oher? 2 times in one game?

[mjones73]

Oher, false start yet again...

[Zisi]

Flacco, Rice, Boldin..do something. And stop jumping Oher!!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Fucking Oher.

[RavNMadMan]

Multiple FS game for Oher.....again

[QuothDaRaven]

Notice how Flacco leans before the snap? Is he tipping off the snap count? He starts leaning back just as the snap is coming under center every time.

[AmericanMoose723]

Our receivers can't get open to save their lives...

Where's the panic button?!

[Iscull]

This is embarassing.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Pathetic.

[QuothDaRaven]

Great. I know we're less than halfway through the third quarter, but it feels like that was the game. Hasselbeck is going to get a deep shot here and connect on a ridiculous jump ball.

[Jsmoove]

this game is done

[StingerNLG]

Where is fucking Torrey Smith? Where is Lee Evans running deep?

Where is this offense? WHY IN THE FUCK does this offense still look exactly the same?

[Raveninwoodlawn]

It isn't even the pass pro...it hasn't been great, but damn, our WR's just cannot get open to save their lives. It's almost like the Titans know every single route before we run it.

Have to change up your tendencies in this game..

[QuothDaRaven]

Man, if only we could get a stop here.

[Zisi]

Flacco coulf get killed out there

[jhoff66]

damn guys you need to chillllllll haha

[Jsmoove]

defense aint getting nothin on hassleback he's just sitting there with all the time in the world.

[QuothDaRaven]

This offense looks the same because Cameron gets "shellshocked" and retreats to his security blanket of the same stupid plays over and over.

[James R(aven)]

Oher the false start machine.

Our O looks so flat. We BADLY need a sack turnover! Come on #92!

[AmericanMoose723]

Reed pick-6 would be nice here... just sayin...

[akashicrecorder]

My internet connection has been shit today, and living in D.C. I don't get Ravens coverage on the TV (which is broken anyway... I live in a sh!tty f#cking house that I can't wait to leave). But it looks like fate did me a favor.

This game looks like a shit show.

[StingerNLG]

In the meantime the Steelers are throttling the Seahawks 23-0.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

This offense looks the same because Cameron gets "shellshocked" and retreats to his security blanket of the same stupid plays over and over.

Flacco isn't making it happen.

[QuothDaRaven]

We're making Javon Ringer look like fucking Marshall Faulk in his prime.

[houstonravensfan]

Oher is poor at LT, but not so great at RT.

[RavNMadMan]

tackling anyone?

[AmericanMoose723]

wow, our D just got their asses handed to them...

[Iscull]

Wow, a 40 year old QB and a back RB are tearing up this defense...

[Lee Van Cleef]

Can't believe we were scared about CJ. Ringer...

[StingerNLG]

1, 2, 3, 4 missed tackles on that play. Including Ray Lewis.

What a pathetic all around effort on all phases today.

[James R(aven)]

What the hell, is their a Ravens defense out there?!?!

[Irish Raven]

Come on McClain, gotta do better then that,

Diving to takle air

[QuothDaRaven]

Even Ed Reed can't stop Kenny Britt.

[AmericanMoose723]

This may be over... talk about a hangover from last week...

[Zisi]

On the bright side, only down by a score. They could pull something out of their ass.

[Iscull]

If they score another TD, we will lose.

[houstonravensfan]

OK, it's too early to panic. We were not going 16-0. Maybe this will be a wake-up call.

[QuothDaRaven]

How weird, Chris Johnson getting booed...

[phatboy]

we are getting owned. Friggin Ringer is going to eat us up. Bothe sides sucking big time

[Iscull]

Chris Johnson can't do shit. Just spy on their RB and Double britt.

[AmericanMoose723]

we can't stop anything they are doing

[Raveninwoodlawn]

OK, it's too early to panic. We were not going 16-0. Maybe this will be a wake-up call.

I agree...but this almost completely wipes out the win from last week.

You have to beat the teams that you should and this is getting away from us.

[Ravenboy2003]

This is the most un-prepared I think we have seen a John Harbaugh coached team..

[Iscull]

This is getting ridiculous. Press the effing WR's!

[StingerNLG]

Cam has no idea how to run these plays. The Titans are just smoking our defense.

[QuothDaRaven]

Okay, enough, ENOUGH, fucking COVER that play!!!

[bmoreravengirl]

Disappointing.

[Paintballguy]

Suggs so close

[AmericanMoose723]

that would have been a game changing pick-6

[mjones73]

Damn, Suggs almost had a pick.

[Iscull]

Terrell YOU NEED TO CATCH THAT!

[QuothDaRaven]

Come on SUGGS!!!! That coulda been a pick six right there.

[RavNMadMan]

defense on the field way too much....enuff said

[akashicrecorder]

Fire Mattison.

[Ravenalytics]

Our only hope is to force a turnover and change momentum

[Iscull]

Bring the house on this down. Knock Hasselbeck on his ass.

[QuothDaRaven]

Long drives eating up the clock. I think one of the biggest stories here is how we couldn't get any pressure on Hasselbeck

[mjones73]

3rd and 6, we need a stop..

[RavingMad]

Flacco isn't making it happen.

This!

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Mattison is definitely back

[QuothDaRaven]

Where are the deceptive blitzes???? Where's the f***ing pressure?!?!?!?

[AmericanMoose723]

What happened to the QB pressure from last week?

[Sephy]

Not one fucking iota of pressure. Fucking pathetic.

[Ravenboy2003]

No pass rush, accuarate QB.. decimated secondary..... Bad news for us..

[StingerNLG]

The Titans Oline looks like the Patriots and Colts today. Just no pass rush whatsoever.

[Iscull]

Bring the effing blitz pagano! Finally we bring the blitz and its an incompletion.

[inexplicable]

Pass rush has been shocking, Hasselbeck has had all day to pick the secondary apart.

[AmericanMoose723]

NEED to stop them on 3rd here

[Iscull]

30 Bucks says they do a quick slant or comeback route

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

Sweet play by Webb

[Paintballguy]

finally some pressure. i hope suggs got a good hit on hasselbeck

[StingerNLG]

That's got to be the first good defensive play we've seen in 2 and a half quarters by the defense.

[Iscull]

FINALLY! Bring the house all day long pagano. Knock hasselbeck down and see what happens.

[AmericanMoose723]

Finally put Hasselbeck on his ass, and a GREAT play by Webb... glad he is ok.

[mjones73]

Nice, Suggs got some pressure on Hasselbeck and Webb made a nice play knocking the pass down..

[QuothDaRaven]

Ballgame.

[Ravenboy2003]

Didn't Hasselbeck light us up the 2-3 times we've faced him before? I seem to recall him throwing for 5 TD's when they played here, and as I recall they blew us out up there a couple years ago... Maybe he's one of those guys that just PWNS us.

[AmericanMoose723]

18:25 left... get your ass in gear offense

[Ravenboy2003]

Took us almost 3 full quarters to flush Hasselbeck and make a play.. Pretty sad.

[Raveninwoodlawn]

The Titans have killed the clock this quarter...have to start making plays NOW

[QuothDaRaven]

Anyone think this offense can put another 10 points on the Titans D the way they're playing? Let's hope for a miracle.

[Iscull]

Can't believe were only down by 10. Score another touchdown and the bring the blitz, and press WR's. Should pull out a win and call it a lucky day.

[Tyrian]

Hope the O is on the sideline getting caffeine intravenously. Need a drive.

[bmoreravengirl]

The difference between this week and last week is, WOW. :mad: :mad:

[akashicrecorder]

This game is fucking pathetic. If we don't do something on offense here I am going to seriously reconsider exacerbating my migraine by watching.

[QuothDaRaven]

We need a quick strike, because the Titans will eat up another ten minutes the next time they have the ball.

[Ngata Nother Suggs]

We're supposed to have some quick strike capability now.

Maybe he just dumps it off to Rice some more.

Flacco took criticism but he also talked some shit himself. He needs to back up his word, and be the guy who finds a way to win the game.

[pyite32]

They have completely wasted the win last week. Now we will be tied with the steelers again. Hello wildcard

Sent from my DROID2 using Tapatalk

[Corey]

So much for not having a let down. We look pathetic right now.

[James R(aven)]

Hopefully Pagano has figured out what we need to do to put Hesselbeck on his ass more!

[QuothDaRaven]

The sad part is the Bengals will probably beat the Broncos and end up on top of the division while there will be a three-way tie between us, Pittsburgh, and Cleveland.

[AmericanMoose723]

If we were going to shit the bed I would have much preferred it to be next week... an AFC loss will really sting...

[Ibravenfan]

3 man rush at all the wrong times. Why so much effort in the dime package ? Is pagono that worried about Hasselback ? Blitz more !

[StingerNLG]

Yes, let's run the ball on 1st down when we're down 10 points.

[QuothDaRaven]

Wow, are we really missing Ben Grubbs that much?
