Jaws' film room

I just haven't seen very many redzone TDs but I'll go back and count when I have a minute. Here's some stats from a FF site

Drew Forrester counted 25 TDs, 0 picks over last two seasons. Jaws might be on the take.

He may be including playoff games. In the last 2 years Joe has played 4 playoff games. Even with the playoff games its a significant, and meaningful achievement.

2011 - Pitta vs. NE
2010 - Boldin vs. KC
2010 - Rice or McGhee vs. PIT ???

Not surprising, he's always taken care of the ball BUT the sack rate near 10% in the red zone is troubling despite.

[SC_Raven_Fan]

Don't wanna discount the 31TD, 0INT stat, BUT the RZ conversion rate leaves a lot to be desired.

23 for 62 is pathetic. Ravens won 13 games last season, but remember how frustrating they were to watch? It was RedZone conversions. They got the ball inside the 20 and kicked a FG enough times to make me wanna puke.

The 2011 TD conversion rate was 50% which ranked 18th. That includes rushing and passing. The Ravens were topped by teams like the Panthers, Titans, and Jets who didn't even make the playoffs last year.

A TO in this part of the field can be mitigated by field position and a good defense like the Raven's have. I personally prefer that Flacco take more chances. This is an area that this team DEFINITELY needs to improve! I blame it on a combination of play-calling, WR play, and QB trepidation. Yes, 3pts is better than zero, but 6pts is better than 3.

aside from all the fumbles last year

[arnie_uk]

that INT against the colts from the 21, not in the RZ. So it is 31TDS 0 INTs

2008 - 0TDs vs. Miami

Correct

[bmorecareful]

FYI, if you're still not sure take a look at http://www.pro-football-reference.co...downs/passing/

I count 31 TDs thrown in 2010 and 2011, including playoffs, that traveled 20 yards or less. I haven't found as good a site for INT's but so far I haven't found any--the INT vs the Colts at the 21 is the closest, but FYI if you guys remember that, Boldin could have had an easy TD on that pass but for his alligator arms. It was a perfectly thrown ball.

The larger point here in any event is that Flacco has less red zone attempts than guys like Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, and Tom Brady have TD's (I'm not saying he's on their level, only making that specific point.) This is a team that lives and dies by the run, particularly in the red zone, and only really wants to throw red zone passes on 3rd and long.

Any team that runs as much as the Ravens do in the red zone is not going to convert at a high rate.

Plus we get to the red zone a lot less, I'd imagine.

When Flacco lobbies for the ball in his hands more, I think this is exactly what he is talking about. He wants 2/3 RZ downs to be passing attempts, not rushing attempts. I think he gets over 32TD's this year.

I would love to see him get there, but no Cam Cameron quarterback has ever thrown for more than 27 TDs. That could always change.

I don't know about 2/3rds of downs being passing downs, but even passing more on 1st down (instead of running the ball over 90% of the time) would probably really improve this offense overall, red zone included.

[leachisabeast]

I don't think it's even close to being true that we run the ball on first downs 90 % of the time.
