It means the afc north hasn't changed, but we definitely lost second seed

Id rather Jimmy Smith over Chris Johnson. There was a reason why Chris Johnson was unemployed up until a few weeks ago. He's just not that good.

BTW, let's not forget Sam Koch put the ball on the 10 yard time, and a rookie returner went 64 yards in OT.

Team loss, no doubt, but this defense is really bad.

The offense got handed the ball at the 15 for one of the TDs. Even if the 15 yards into the endzone is worth something, it isn't worth 7 points. Maybe 2-3 points. Defense gets cedit for 4-5 there.

The offense also turned it over once on our side fo the field. The defense let up 1st down, 16 yards and it resulted in a long FG.

Easily could say the defense let up 25 and scored 5.
Or offense scored 23 and let up 3.

Based on the first half, the defense did is job with adjustments, the offense shat the bed.

Too many injuries on defense

And I only made it 60/40, almost equal blame.

Give me a break here.

This was in no way Joes fault. He cant block for oher. He cant magically throw it to the non existant open receiver at the last second.

Youre clamoring for him to throw it away but then last week yourr mad when he does, mad when when he doesnt.

Hes damned if he does, damned if he doesnt with you freaking people.

Sure, 28 points should be enough, but maybe you should take into consideration the fact that that was in the 1st half mostly. We had a ton of 3 and outs in the 2nd with one scoring drive. Outside of the last drive, our defense was awesome in the 2nd half. Its called being gassed becausr your offense is too incompetent to adjust to the worst pass defense in the league.

Stop looking at every issue like its black and white, you sound ridiculous and ignorant

Anyone blaming one specific thing for this loss clearly has an agenda.

You can point to many aspects of this game that led to yet another choke.

It starts at the top and ended with the punt coverage team.

That pretty much runs the gamet.

Valid, but if you compare the Skins offense to the Ravens offense it is startling how much more open the skins can get (not just this game).

No that's a bad comparison. Everyone is open against us and we're never open against every team. This has been consistent for a while

I'm still shocked on how on a 3rd and 6 from the 12 yard line with 29 seconds to play the ravens let someone get behind the defense and into the end zone. If nothing else you force them to throw short and try to fight to get into the end zone. But that whole drive was full of fail by the ravens D.

Why? It's not shocking to me. As soon as it went to ot, I called a loss.

Right about now I say forget about an elite qb. How about the Ravens get an above average one who knows how to secure the ball. Yes the offense scored 28 points, but how many points did Flacco's turnovers give the Redskins. Three points off the fumble and no points for the Ravens from the int he threw.

How about they get an offensive line who can fucking pass block?

Our qb is fine. He plays worse than some and better than most. Both the turnovers were on Oher today

KVV SUMS IT UP
Kevin Van Valkenburg ‏@KVanValkenburg Let's be honest. Ravens have been doing it w/ smoke and mirrors all year. And they just inhaled the smoke and fell face 1st into the mirror.

Gotta beg to differ on that one. Joe needs to move in the pocket and or throw the damn ball. Oher can't block 3 guys at once. If I'm not mistaken the free rusher is the Qb's responsibility.

**SmokinPig1** · 12-09-2012, 03:44 PM

No Please give us a break. yeah the freahin team lost. But... Joe
