GAME THREAD - Ravens/Browns

Garbage time TD. Makes McNair's stats look somewhat respectable.

sheeeesh!

**RockyMRaven** · 09-30-2007, 02:29 PM

Finally! But what took the offense so long??? There's just not enough time to come back now. McNair looked much better on that drive, though.

**Sephy** · 09-30-2007, 02:30 PM

27-13 Browns.

**StingerNLG** · 09-30-2007, 02:30 PM

Wow. Miracles never cease. A nice drive too. I'm guessing McNair felt he was about to get pulled.

Now the D needs to stop the Browns here and get the offense back on the field.

GO DEFENSE,

DEFENSE<DEFENSE<DEFENSE

Let me hear you all

**Merlin** · 09-30-2007, 02:32 PM

an ongoing failure of imagination

no no-huddle
no on-side kick
no sense of urgency

just a walk in lala land

unbelievable

It's not that I don't have faith, but this team has shown me nothing in 3 1/2 quarters today. They finally get a TD with 7 minutes left. Now Cleveland has the ball and will run off about 3 minutes, providing we stop them. That leaves 4 minutes to get 2 TDs, something that it took them 3 1/2 quarters to do.

**camdenyard** · 09-30-2007, 02:34 PM

I agree. I think we needed an onside kick there.

**Merlin** · 09-30-2007, 02:37 PM

i have a question for folks

sypniewski ran out of bounds on the last offensive set -- and the clock started again before we hiked it . . . has there been a change of rules or is the clock official conspiring against us too?

**StingerNLG** · 09-30-2007, 02:38 PM

This will be interesting. I am not feeling really positive right now......

BUT

The Ravens are only 2 TD's down with 5 minutes. If somehow they can strike quickly, and then the defense can hold the Browns, we have an outside shot of tying this game.

**pyite32** · 09-30-2007, 02:38 PM

So glad that the team gave Billick that extension...

We will be lucky to be 8-8 this year

**drjcc** · 09-30-2007, 02:39 PM

I think the clock gets started after the ball is spotted at the line until the last 4 minutes of 2nd and 4th

What are you smoking Stinger?

The clock stops on out of bounds plays only when there's 5 minutes left in the game. All other times, the clock restarts when the ball is placed by the officials.

**camdenyard** · 09-30-2007, 02:41 PM

What happened to Heap?

**ladyraven127** · 09-30-2007, 02:41 PM

"What are you smoking Stinger?"

Can I have some?

**Merlin** · 09-30-2007, 02:42 PM

thanks for the answer

perhaps boller should come in and throw it 40 yards>

Trying to make fun of me is not going to change the fact that, although you can place some blame on Billick, there's plenty of blame to go around. The only reason I reply to some of these completely anti-Billick posts is to try to provide some sort of balance to the conversation. If I come across as being a Billick apologist, then so be it. You come across as a not always reasonable Billick-hater.
