Game Thread - BAL vs NYJ - Week 2, The Comeback?

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:30 PM

I've got to say, you can definitley see how Boller has matured...Rhodes in his face, and he doesn't hardly FLINCH!

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:32 PM

1st, reverse fake to Mason again, McGahee gets the give up the middle and gets smacked for a loss of 2.
2nd and 12, complete to Mason, gets 6. Boller's throws look OK, but he is staring down his guys.
3rd and 6, shotgun, complete to Musa out of the backfield to the 6! First and goal!

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:34 PM

3rd and goal...Billick, PLEASE RUN IT! or at least PA pass it.

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:34 PM

Ravens handling blitz pickups and hot reads really well. Good work by Boller.
1st and goal from the 6, McGahee up the middle for maybe 1-2.
2nd from the 4, Sypniewski false starts, ARGH.
2nd from the 9, give to McGahee who hits the hole FAST, gets back to about the 4, gain of 5. They spot it at the 2, though.
3rd and goal from the 2, PA, Rollout, complete to McGahee, TOUCHDOWN RAVENS WIDE OPEN!!!!

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:34 PM

YES! That is how we do it!!!!!

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:35 PM

Really good drive from Boller. 7-0 to the good guys! Excellent playcalling by Billick, simply kept the Jets off balance.

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:37 PM

Kyle Boller, 6/6, 53 yards on that drive...nice work

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:38 PM

SUGGS! NICE NICE stop. I didn't even see him get in there!

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:39 PM

Touchback on the kick.

1st from the 20, give up the middle for 5 for Jones.
2nd and 5, Jones SMACKED by Suggs in the backfield, 3 yard loss! Suggs is so good.
3rd and 8, 12 men on the field due to the no huddle. Such a stupid thing.
3rd and 3, shotgun, complete to Coles over the middle for 7 and a first.

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:41 PM

I need to see that play again on TiVo...Ivy nearly sacks Clemmens, CMac almost picks the pass...oh well, 3rd down

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:41 PM

1st from the 35, Jones for 6. Big hole there.
2nd and 4, shotgun, Ivy had the sack on Clemens and LETS GO, Clemens rolls out, and is almost picked off by C-Mac, but out of bounds. Unacceptable tackling by Ivy.
3rd and 4, Jets forced to take a TO.

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:43 PM

Ivy thought he threw the ball already, was trying to make sure he didn't get a Roughing the Passer call...I'm in the middle on that, he needs to finish, but with the way the refs call things, good move playing it safe.

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:44 PM

3rd and 4, shotgun, waits what seemed like forever, moved forward looking like a scramble, and dumps to Jones all the way inside the Ravens 40. Nice play by the rookie.

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:44 PM

SO CLOSE, but Jones takes a screen and gets a ton of yards.

Jones is starting to look better and better. Getting 3-4 yards on carries

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:45 PM

1st from the Ravens 38, Jones up the middle for 6.
2nd and 4, the first quarter ends.

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:47 PM

I think the whole line tackled Jones on that one...three players on it

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:48 PM

2nd and 4, Jones swallowed up in the backfield for a loss of 2-3! Great penetration.
3rd and 6, shotgun, empty backfield, Ravens call a TO.

**Sephy** · 09-16-2007, 03:51 PM

3rd and 6, shotgun empty backfield again, quick hit to Coles, gain of about 2.

Really weird alignment on that play. They had only 2 down lineman, and only on the right side! NO one on the left. Rex Ryan is crazy.

50 yarder for Nugent is good. 7-3 Ravens.

**RavenScallywag** · 09-16-2007, 03:52 PM

Ryan is a genius...I will miss him when he is a head coach next year...

also, I hope he will coach an NFC team. Don't want to play against that kind of playcalling.
