To be honest not sure id say our D dominated. We forced turnovers but they drove on us a decent amount. 

 

They had way more yards on the ground and through the air. 

 

Our D dominated the game for the most part.  Near the end when the backups were in and it wasn't the QB we gameplanned for things got less awesome but it was the end of a preseason game.

 

Aside from a few series at the beginning of the game (basically until the Ginn PR) we looked a bit flat but what we delivered was a smothering, fun to watch, absolutely beastly defensive performance.

 

I hope we see a fraction of that throughout the regular season games.

Two say our D did anything less than dominate last night is ridiculous! Like stop trying to be so over analytical and face the freaking facts!!!!! 3 count it 3 defensive scores! Star and short basically living in the offensive backfield with multiple tackles for loss! Luke playing one the best halves of football I've ever seen from anyone!!! Ill say it...coooommmmeee onnnn mannnn be a fan support your team when we actually have something positive happen!!!! A whole lot of positive!!!

I was wondering if maybe the media would throw us a bone and make the headline that our defense is awesome and just destroyed the Ravens and their 100 million dollar QB. But I knew all along it was going to "Ravens bungle and goof up the game, it's only preseason."

Thank goodness that game didn't count because the Panthers won. Whew!

I get what you're saying but the whole point of a defense is to get turnovers and keep the other team from scoring as many points as the offense.  They did that in resounding fashion last night.  Flacco looked good on the first drive and the last one (against 2nd teamers) and that's generally good enough to win.  Had the offense been able to move the ball at all it might have been a blowout.

 

My biggest concern is that it took a punt return for a TD for them to get out of the funk they were in...but I understand it too.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
