CRA

It is raining hard. Rain kills the ball. Too unpredictable to be throwing deep. We have thrown deep more this game than any other this season at our current pace

Why.....why.....are we airing it out in the rain? We we have gone undefeated being a run offense. Get away from what you are and you lose games

Colts are smart on the kickoffs. Totally screwing up any blocking we could get. Helps they are desperate and are gonna try the onside eventually

We need to stick with the run. Read option too especially with the weaker OL play. We have run the read in the rain all season....it still works.

Gruden's commentary IMO didn't reflect the play. Colt defender just knocked it out

We lost our one legit lineman in Kalil. Stewart has been grinding yards behind Kalil and the G

Need to lean on the run more than we are

well, the Kalil lose will be interesting. Both in pass and run. Stewart had also been doing a lot of underrated dirty work running behind the C/G.

Another fan base thinking outdated ways are how you stop Cam.... pressure Cam and he will falter? Doesn't seem like any opponent has a clue how crazy good Cam has been the last couple seasons under pressure. It ain't 2012. Last two seasons Cam has been one of the best in the NFL when pressured. As far as running at us. The Gore style RBs are the ones we always seem to contain. It is the speeder RBs we tend to bottle up and allow the one or two big runs that always throw are defensive efforts out of whack

you can find exceptions to every rule....can't deny the NFL Diva WR mentality has changed. Likely has something to do with the passing league and offenses not ideally running through 1-2 players like it did

I'm sure they, like most teams, are just itching to rid themselves of their young dynamic playmakers

WR position has changed. 89 is one of the past still playing that overlapped careers into the headache/diva era. 89 entered in a different game. Teams catered to TO, Moss, Johnson, 89, etc. Never hear a peep from AJ, Julio, Megatron, and all the young present day studs

no he doesn't. Not this version. Now he is a good WR that brings all his headaches. His headaches impact things. Some one argue the emotional attached to what he was skews what people think he brings now...and those selective ignore all the reasons he was released (non of which involve the ability to catch balls )

Maybe ....maybe he is the type that unloads on Funchess in the 3rd q and throws fits about why he isn't getting the ball forced to him instead. Maybe instead of going back to the open man in Funchess that ultimately drives us down to win we turn it over to stop his rage. 89 changes the dynamics, leadership, etc. Which is why he left. People only see his catches right now. You don't just insert a bet to catch open balls when it comes to 89

since it doesn't look DG is going anywhere....I don't see 89 doing a ceremonial one day deal with him

Okay, let's stick with the Michael Jackson analogy. If Jackson was coming to perform at your kids birthday party....don't get all super defensive when someone mentions all his weird freak behavior and allegations of criminal behavior. Yeah, we all get his performance of Thriller would have been on point at the party. Gotta talk about the other stuff though and if it worth all the other parents cancelling, calling your wife to complain, etc b/c of who you wanted to perform at the party. That ain't hating on him as a performer. 89 was awesome WR. At his age, he is still a dang good one. More to 89 at this point than just that....and talking about all this other baggage doesn't have much to do with his ability to catch.

if we were 1-5 our WRs would have more yards than they do. It is gonna help his yardage from a career perspective this year that Baltimore sucks, plays from behind, and only has him to throw to. much props to him playing w/ his injury. That is vintage 89.

there was absolutely nothing in my post dismissing what he did in his career here. The time came for him to leave....and it is working out fine for us. Easily can argue it has worked out better for us than 89 at this point. Carolina will relevant both years has 89 has been gone....

media is so hypocritical... 89 punches dudes in the face, explodes on people on the sidelines, goes loco on the field over anything that provides the opportunity. Media selectively refers to 89 and calls it the type fire you want. I mean imagine if 89 pulled what Greg Hardy just did on the sideline. Media would say...."well, Steve Smith gets it. He is tired of the lack of everyone and he is gonna let everyone now. Coaches? Yes, you aren't too good either". Steve Smith was NOT let go b/c we didn't think he could still play. Period. Since his departure we are 13-8-1. Currently undefeated at 6-0. I think we got it right.

89 was very specific about Baltimore when he went their......2 he flight from home, they encouraged his style of play and were a respected organization. No one else meets his criteria. Atlanta is the only close one and his style doesn't seem to mesh with them. So that makes is Baltimore or no one....

media creates topics...makes people address them. Think about how many articles or opposing fans have knocked Cam based on what he has said. Cam doesn't just randomly share things. He responds to questions and then media writes about what they dictated he talk about. 89 is about to retire and Ravens suck. Media made Ozzie address something he likely had no intention of publically

Zod's Huddle bump took awhile last week to kick in but apparently it took effect late in the 4th q. Huddle bumps don't just last a quarter so obviously Funchess scores his first NFL TD

in all seriousness... Odds of 89 coming back here in a trade are about as good as skinny Jordan Gross coming out of retirement to take over Kelvin's spot.

Ozzie has said he isn't dealing 89 89 hates our FO Our FO believed to get better meant 89 leaving ....why is this a thread?

are you familiar with teens or the internet? I think it is a big reach to assume this is some elaborate plan orchestrated by Steve Smith to be acquired by the man he probably dislikes more than anyone in the NFL... 89 by all accounts appears to be a very hands on dad.....and now dad for the first time is states away. Sure it gets old for his son this new window of his dad's career. 89 spits hot fire when it comes to Carolina. Neither party IMO is interested. Heck, I'm sure 89's wife would love it too. Doesn't mean Steve would want to come back to Dave and this FO.
