Makes me feel better every time I read it.

Its sad to say but I did watch some of the rams game yesterday. Their offensive line looked much better than ours...God what has the world come to?

If Bradford had taken one of those weak side safety blitz shots that Clausen took in the second half yesterday, he'd still be on the field.

Hmm. Interesting read. Unfortunately, there's something that makes me not feel better about the two comparisons:

http://www.nfl.com/players/jimmyclausen/profile?id=CLA709185

TDS - 0/INT - 2/YDS - 247/Completion % - 47.9/RTG - 46.1

http://www.nfl.com/players/sambradford/profile?id=BRA101548

TDS - 4/INT - 5/YDS - 655/Completion % - 59.0/RTG - 68.1

Now... granted... Clausen has only one start. But his numbers are on par with Bradford's numbers for the same reps.

I think the long and the short of it is this... they're both rookies and are playing as such. They both have a long ass way to go before we know if they are average/great/busts.

...and Clausen was a rookie QB getting his first start in a wet, sloppy mess yesterday while Bradford was playing in a dome.

And? I'm not saying Clausen is worse or better than Bradford. I'm saying they are both Rookies and play as such. I'm saying that to point out that people who expect these cats to come out of the draft throwing for 400 yards and 6 TDs are being unrealistic.

Well if they would have kept Vincent we'd have the same line that allowed us to run all over the Vikings and Giants...suprised people aren't making any Trade Gross threads.

I'm not making any "trade Gross" threads because I think he will be back 100% next season.. his knee surgery is taking longer to gain strength than anticipated, I'm sure.

I still don't know why we thought Bernadeau was an upgrade over Vincent.

      Maxx Cosby deal with Ravens off.

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.

      Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
