Week 4 - Rex vs Ravens - NYJ-BAL Game Thread

[RavenScallywag]

Inactives for BAL:

WR/RS David Reed, CB Jimmy Smith, CB Chris Carr, S Haruki Nakamura, LB Dannell Ellerbe, G Ben Grubbs, WR Lee Evans

bad news. Carr down means razor thin CB. Ellerbe down too.

[EdReed4HOF]

Good thing Mangold has just been reported as inactive. Ngata gonna have a field day.

[wickedsolo]

Haruki being out makes it worse.

He was out there a lot on dime packages and multiple DB packages.

[AmericanMoose723]

Go Ravens!!!

:taz::taz::taz::taz::taz:

[RavenScallywag]

We knew about half of those from long term injuries...Jimmy, Nakamura, Reed...

Sadly, everyone who was game time decisions ended up out. While on their side, Cromartie will play as expected.

Gurode for Grubbs should be fine
Torrey for Lee will be okay, hopefully Tandon gets some choice plays against Kyle Wilson
McClain for Ellerbe...eh, we know how that one goes

The real worrying point for me is Carr out. We're trotting out Chykie Brown as the nickel, and probably Gorrer as the dime. That's some easy targets for Sanchez. The only plus is that our pass rush can lick it's chops a bit with Mangold down.

[Paintballguy]

Mangold is out Cromartie is active

[RavenScallywag]

I almost wish we could recall Foxworth from IR.

[Lime in the Coconut]

Kindle active! That's awesome! Yeah the CB issue has me worried, they have to beat Sanchez down tonight and the offense has to show up, they have to...

[EdReed4HOF]

The only plus is that our pass rush can lick it's chops a bit with Mangold down.

That's a HUGE plus though. Mangold is the best C in the league and Ngata will be going up against an undrafted rookie FA. Sanchez is gonna make some plays but plenty of mistakes too.

[dandrews]

I can't see us winning this game at all. Theres no way Gorrer and Chykie are going to be able to handle Mason.

Not to mention Holmes is going to give Webb fits and big WRs give Cary Williams fits (see Britt, Kenny) and he's going to be covering Plaxico.

We're going to have to rush the s**t out of the passer, or else there's no chance we win.

The fans at the stadium will help make things tough on Sanchez and the weak Jets oline and the Ravens front 7 will feed off the energy of the crowd.

[Ravenswintitle]

The young guys stepped up on offense last week - need the young corners to step up this week.

Man I can't wait for this game - go Ravens

I ask that you please stop being a pessimist and realize that the game is here and not in New York, the crowd will be loud and Sanchez and the makeshift Jets OLine will have issues.

[SugarRay52]

That's the attitude I like to see, playing at home will help the young corners.

[Ravenswintitle]

Ravens will not lose this game. They have a chance to move into first going into the bye. They will find a way

[Irish Raven]

Kindle makes his regular season debut at last

Lets see him bring it :thumbup:

Well shit...I might as well not even watch the game now, huh?


:rolleyes:


If the Ravens win this evening can you not post here anymore? You do this (or something like this) almost every single week.

[Lime in the Coconut]

Kindle in the all black, yeah! I'm happy for him and I'd like to see if they use him on pass rush situations. The pass rush is going to have a good night. The safeties will have to help out these CB's.

[akashicrecorder]

I hope this ends up being right. In fact, this is our best shot of not giving ourselves a headache. Everyone is saying this will be a tight game, but does it have to be? Against Steelers and Rams, we've proven we're not afraid to blow the lid off. ... Rush Sanchez and force what's underneath, then tackle. They will make plays, but so will we.

[bacchys]

I think we can score on this defense, and with our situation at corner we may have to score quite a bit. I'm not pegging this for a low-scoring affair. I think it will be 24-18 Ravens, with our defense coming up big in the red zone.

Glad to hear Kindle is a go. Time to get that first NFL sack, son! Make it three!

[myfavoriteboxer]

I think most of us were annoyed that the bye week was coming so early in the season, but holy crap does it seem like good timing for us now. Let's run the ball a lot and survive this game and then it's R&R time.

[akashicrecorder]

Wow... the last 35 minutes to the game is going by even slower than the days before it did.

[Jsmoove]

Well chykie your time to shine baby go get some!! LET'S GO RAVENS!!!

[myfavoriteboxer]

I'm off to my local watering hole, let's go birds.

[Jsmoove]

I'm nervous as fuck right bout now!!

[MickieB-OM]

I'm annoyed that all they are talking about is Rex Ryan, Bart Scott and the Jets in general. Ravens, kick butt all over M&T stadium......:D

[RavNMadMan]

With Suggs and Kindle amped up, Sanchez is in for a long night.

[Ravenous1]

Predicted a Ravens blowout but have concerns about the CB situation for this game. Gonna need to keep constant pressure on Sanchez and it should be fine. Go Ravens 30-16

[AmericanMoose723]

15 minute until kickoff... can't get here fast enough

Predicting Ravens 27-20

[Ravenswintitle]

nice piece on Rice. Hope he gets a big contract and keeps getting better

[Darksouleyez]

raining pretty bad, i didnt realize it was raining when i looked outside a little bit ago. its going to be a Run game even more now i bet.

[MickieB-OM]

Ray Rice piece on NBC was really nice. About time, NBC, stopped tongue bathing the Jets long enough to talk about the Ravens. Another 15 minutes and it's showtime!

[RavNMadMan]

nice piece on Rice. Hope he gets a big contract and keeps getting better

Yeah. I said to the Mrs just now, they need to throw some serious cheese his direction. Ray Rice is the best RB we've ever had IMO.

[MickieB-OM]

"1-2-3 Dominate". RAVENS, just win baby.

[AmericanMoose723]

Hope we can win the toss and defer so our D can set the tone early.

[Ravenous1]

Yeah. I said to the Mrs just now, they need to throw some serious cheese his direction. Ray Rice is the best RB we've ever had IMO.

Think he is on the path to being that. Jamal Lewis was no slouch in his prime either. If Ray continues to play at his current level I have no doubt he will surpass Lewis for that title

[RAVENOUS52]

With rain being a factor, Joe has to know when to take care of the ball and move on to the next play. Turnovers must be avoided at all costs...

[Darksouleyez]

I spoke too soon, Rain has stopped.

[Bl1tz]

Good thing Mangold has just been reported as inactive. Ngata gonna have a field day.

He was going to have a field day regardless of what overrated player was lining up in front of him, trust me

There isnt a man/center in the league that can slow him down, and he knows this

[rpcfball]

there are so many freakin new yorkers on this campus it makes me sick. the ravens need to kick some ass tonight!

[darb72]

The important thing to remember is that now I get to wear my customized authentic black jersey. The white one is nice but it was time for a change.

[Ravenous1]

Even Chuck Norris cannot block Heloti

:)

[Paintballguy]

lets go!

[heartattackjones]

gametime! go ravens!

[bmorebirds_24]

Let's fucking go!!!!

Secondary beat up...Next man up!

[AmericanMoose723]

Here we go...

[4G63]

Rock out with my cock out!!

[Ravenous1]

Faith Hill sure is better to look at than Hank Williams lol

[AmericanMoose723]

Crowd sounds fired up, love it

[Ravenous1]

I wonder if turrets runs in the Ryan family

[akashicrecorder]

Nervous as hell...

[MickieB-OM]

let's go..........

[AmericanMoose723]

the pink gloves/cleats with the all black unis looks a little goofy... but it's for a good cause

[RavNMadMan]

I wonder if turrets runs in the Ryan family

Diarrhea of the mouth certainly does....:thumbup:

[Flipping Birdie]

Rock out with my cock out!!

Put that away, please. ;)

[RavNMadMan]

Damn....get this thing started already :ref:

[Jsmoove]

Bittin my got dam nails already

[Justlovemybirds]

We get the ball first, Jets defered

[RavenScallywag]

Moment of silence for Zeus...RIP big man. Suggs and Ray going to go out and mess up some heads for you tonight

[Ravenous1]

Flip the damn coin and lets rock

[AmericanMoose723]

NYJ won the toss and deferred... another fast start from the offense would be great

[Paintballguy]

Ngata about to do work tonight.

[Irish Raven]

Can't wait

1:30am and about to start

Will not be a productive day in work today :D

[Jsmoove]

No one who ever watches football can say Ray Lewis is never ready dude is so intense it pours out my tv.

Ray Lewis defines intensity.

[4G63]

Martina is still hot!!

[MickieB-OM]

Butterflies are a churning.....ready to start......

[RavenScallywag]

The man could talk anyone into running through a wall

:happyanim

[StingerNLG]

Good job Baltimore. Your desire to yell "OOOOOOOOOO" during the anthem actually knocked Martina McBride off key.

[Ravenous1]

Game time :)

[akashicrecorder]

Martina's rendition a little shaky... but nice handling of the "Ooohhh!!!"

[AmericanMoose723]

NOT a good way to start... 2 heart attacks on the opening kickoff...

Let's Go J5!

[Jsmoove]

Goodness gracious

[MickieB-OM]

Damn, he fumbled the ball. Sheesh...not good for the nerves....come on Ravens.

[mjones73]

Ugh, close call

Williams, I love you like a brother but don't do that again.

[ActualSpamBot]

That's why you sometimes play starters on special teams.

[Paintballguy]

why do our returners make horrible decisions?

[Raveninwoodlawn]

Why are we spreading them out to start the game...JUST like last year...it doesn't work.

[akashicrecorder]

The whole team looks antsy. Need to settle...

[AmericanMoose723]

Boldin with an Orioles hat... interesting

[Jsmoove]

They just as nervous as us

[RavNMadMan]

Damn LaQuan....do we to break out the super glue and duct tape?

[MickieB-OM]

Come on guys. Settle down.

[4G63]

Settle down boys.

Go Ed Dickson!!!

[AmericanMoose723]

HUGE effort by Dickson.

Why so much noise from the crowd when we're on offense?

[akashicrecorder]

Ed Dickson!!!

Diiiccckkks!!!

[Ravenous1]

Great effort Dickson!

[MickieB-OM]

Dickson fought for that one--nice job Ed....

[bpmurr]

Nice catch and drag by Dickson!

[Jsmoove]

Big mutha fuckn ed dickson out there!!

Lovin our TEs... MOVE THOSE CHAINS

[Ravenous1]

nice call there

[Paintballguy]

Love the 2 TE sets and screen to pitta

[4G63]

Piiiiiitta!!

[MickieB-OM]

Pitta gets in the action .

[ActualSpamBot]

Great burst outta Pitta. Tightends might go wild tonight.

[AmericanMoose723]

Damn 5 yards too far

[Paintballguy]

Where is the PI? wtf

[bacchys]

Damn, Joe has an arm!

[RavenScallywag]

There you go...Rex, you want to smother Ray Rice? Go for it. PITTA! DICKSON! KABLAMMO

[TTRaven]

Damn! Torrey got behind Revis

[mjones73]

How was that not PI?

Matt - sent via Tapatalk

[Jsmoove]

Man double tight end set is murderous

[4G63]

Revis was all over him down the field!

[Paintballguy]

Revis was all over him down the field!

easily could have been illegal contact and pi on the same play

[darb72]

Good job picking up the first by Dixon.

Then the screen pass to Pitta picks up good yardage.

PA deep and over throws Smith.

Pass knocked down at the line looking for Leach.

Timeout Baltimore

[RavenScallywag]

So, Revis IS on Torrey? Man, I sure hope Boldin eats Cromartie's lunch

[RavNMadMan]

Joe you dump that ball over his head....Seriously

[AmericanMoose723]

Not lovin the audible Jets chant

[houstonravensfan]

Can't post here. Standing in front of TV.

[Jsmoove]

This might sound crazy but I like the torrey smith matchup on revis he fast but not as fast as torrey

[MickieB-OM]

Ok....3rd down......

[bmoreravengirl]

So, Revis IS on Torrey? Man, I sure hope Boldin eats Cromartie's lunch

I scratched my head on that one. They're THAT scared of a rookie they put their best defender on him.

[AmericanMoose723]

This might sound crazy but I like the torrey smith matchup on revis he fast but not as fast as torrey

Torrey had separation on the deep ball

[StingerNLG]

Damn, are we passing to open up the run? I think Joe is getting a little ahead of himself.

[akashicrecorder]

We really want to score on this drive. Hence the TO.

But on the bright side, we have changed field position already. Just don't do something stupid...

[4G63]

This might sound crazy but I like the torrey smith matchup on revis he fast but not as fast as torrey

He couldn't keep up with him which is why he was hand checking him down the sideline!

[mjones73]

This might sound crazy but I like the torrey smith matchup on revis he fast but not as fast as torrey

I will like it when Revis get's called for PI...

Awesome ST play by Laquan

[Stumpy]

Alrignt DFense... MAN UP!!!

[darb72]

Great tackle by Quan Williams. Flag on the play, holding on the Jets.

Puts them back inside the 20.

[4G63]

Someone at the game let us know what just happened after the punt?!? They didn't show it on TV.

[MickieB-OM]

Oh no, Carey is the Referee--going to be a long night.

[Paintballguy]

Ed reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed

[Flipping Birdie]

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[AmericanMoose723]

Fuck yeah

suck it sanchez

[4G63]

Eeeeeeedddddddd!!!!! Reeeeeeeeeeed!!

[akashicrecorder]

Welcome to Baltimore, Sanchez!

[MickieB-OM]

Defense with the TD......Ed Reed ,,,,yeah!

[ActualSpamBot]

As silly as it looked, Joe was awesome on the incompletion. Very Roethlisbergesque. Scramble, pump, scramble, stiff arm, and nearly complete for a first down.


TOUCHDOWN! Ed FREAKING Reed!!!!!

[Stumpy]

Hell YEAH Boys....

[bmoreravengirl]

:ww::ww::ww::ww::ww::ww::ww:

Ed Reed, best safety EVER

[AmericanMoose723]

Clearly a fumble... hopefully the refs don't job us

[rpcfball]

They better not reverse that

[dandrews]

idk.....i have a bad feeling about this one coming back....

[StingerNLG]

That's a fumble baby!!!! Mike Carey is just delaying the inevitable.

[MickieB-OM]

T Sizzle and Ed Reed! That is the way to shake up Sanchez and company......

[darb72]

And the Raven's defense scores on the Jets first play.

Ed Reed with the safety blitz, sacks Sanchez, forces the fumble and McClain stumbles it into the end-zone.

[Paintballguy]

If it's called an incomplete pass, I'm going to break stuff.

[AmericanMoose723]

Td ravens.... Yeah baby

RRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDD

well fuck... that sucks

[darb72]

Well shit.

[bmorebirds_24]

Isn't Harbs a former ST coach?:insane:

[bmoreravengirl]

Are you f***ing kidding me?!?!?

[Jsmoove]

How the fuck!!!

[4G63]

Holy shit....no block in the back?!?!?

[akashicrecorder]

What in the FUCK was that?

[Stumpy]

Well that's not good :(

[StingerNLG]

Fucking hell!!!

And this is why you don't put just scrubs and second teamers on special teams.

[AmericanMoose723]

Just as I was starting to not worry about our kick coverage...

Jets get away with a hold, but even so that shouldn't happen. Hell of a run by McKnight.

Man, our offense is looking sloppy...

[akashicrecorder]

Offense looks like shit.

[StingerNLG]

Say what you want about the Detroit fiasco, I've always loved how emphatic Mike Carey is when he calls a penalty.

[StingerNLG]

How the hell did he pluck that out of the air!

And the penalty to boot.

[AmericanMoose723]

Was hoping it was DPI in the endzone... but I'll take the hold

[RavNMadMan]

With all due respect to Jamal Lewis, I don't remember him making plays like that very often. RR is an awesome football player

[Jsmoove]

We know cromartie can't cover he can run in a straight line but he can't turn fluid

[darb72]

I didn't even realize it ws Mike Carey calling the game tonight. We'd better whip the Jets up and down the field and not leave it up to the officals or we're boned.

[rpcfball]

damn it smith!!! catch the fuckin ball!

[AmericanMoose723]

damn that should've been a TD for Torrey :(

[ActualSpamBot]

Relax Darb. Carey has called plenty of games for us. He's strict but even handed. I'm not worried about grudges.

And as I say that they blow DPI in the endzone. Bad non call.

[ActualSpamBot]

Would've been a great catch. That's on Joe.

[darb72]

Dang Smith, you have to catch that. It's a hard catch but you're a pro now.

Not Joe's best pass but catchable.

[Jay D83]

Oh lawd Flacco. Gotta get that arm under control

[AmericanMoose723]

pushing a receiver down from behind isn't a penalty? WHAT THE FUCK

[RavNMadMan]

Come on Torrey....we've all seen you catch the ball

[MickieB-OM]

where is the flag????

[Paintballguy]

the jets cornerbacks are mugging everyone

[StingerNLG]

This is some absolute SHIT ref jobs tonight. Pass interference AGAIN not called.

[darb72]

And there's a blown PI call. When the defender actually rips the receiver's arms down while the ball is in the air, that is PI.

[Jsmoove]

Mikey carey crew is fukkn terrible

[RavNMadMan]

This officiating crew flat out sucks.

[Firststater]

Flacco threw that TD pass behind Smith. Come on guys....

[MickieB-OM]

Ok, defense, time for another turnover.

[heartattackjones]

blatant pi

[AmericanMoose723]

Refs couldn't gift shitsburgh the win, and now they're trying again with the jets

[ActualSpamBot]

I just defended Carey. I take it back. That's 14 points the refs fucked between the illegal block on the return and this DPI. FUCK Carey.

[AmericanMoose723]

Please just kick the fing ball out the endzone so we don't have to worry about the horrid ST play

[Paintballguy]

wtf mike carey

[AmericanMoose723]

Man, fuck these refs... for fucks sake

[darb72]

There you go Carey.

It's not malice in my heart, I just really fucking hate you.
