OPENING DAY GAME THREAD - Ravens/Bucs

**Merlin** · 09-10-2006, 12:08 PM

A very auspicious start -- this is unlike anything last year in its relentlessness so far. McNair with GREAT pocket presence

**Sephy** · 09-10-2006, 12:10 PM

1st down from the Bucs 23, Musa in the backfield, give to him, and Musa just chugs forward pushing the pile for 6! Excellent run and effort.
2nd and 4, Mason goes to the sideline, give to Musa who tries to go off tackle, and nothing was there so its no gain, maybe a loss of 1.
3rd and 4, Mason back in, shotgun 2 RB, going for Mason, incomplete but Barber is called for PI! He looked like he got there early. YEAH!

FYI -- Mughelli most penalized fullback last year

**Sephy** · 09-10-2006, 12:11 PM

Definite early contact. Ticky tack, but it was early.
1st and 10 from the 11, 2 TE, Jamal slams in, gets 7, down to the 4-5!.
2nd and 3, at the 4, Jamal off tackle left, TOUCHDOWN RAVENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**Irishraven** · 09-10-2006, 12:12 PM

Jamal!!!!! TD!"!!!!!

**Sephy** · 09-10-2006, 12:12 PM

Mughelli got a GREAT block on 51, completely sealing him on the edge.

7-0 Ravens..against a great D on the road! I LOVE IT!!

They simply couldn't have had a better start to this game. Perfect.

Wooooooooohooooooooooooooo

OK - first string scores a TD on first possession. Take them out now to avoid injuries, and let's see what the 2nd stringers do.

BS

**Merlin** · 09-10-2006, 12:17 PM

The defense has a had a chance to sip their gatorade . .

Lets see how our new D line matches up against their o-line which has lost a few people

**Beerracuda** · 09-10-2006, 12:17 PM

**Sephy** · 09-10-2006, 12:19 PM

1st, PA rollout, Simms just keeps rolling, tucks it down and gets 3.
2nd and 7, another PA fake and rollout, pass intended for Allstott dropped and SMACKED by AD.
3rd and long, Simms NAILED as he throws on the blitz, pass caught by the RB, and he is UPENDED for a loss by Ed Reed.

YES!!!

Sams gets it to the 27.
