Re: Around the NFL Week 12

I noticed Ravens running a ton of read option plays. That's the kind of offense you run when the QB can't run the true offense outright. (see RGIII for example) My guess is he'll continue to blow up this year, but next year you'll see defensive coordinators put a stop to it much like they did with us. Dude is fun to watch though and they have a great chance of reaching the SB playing like this.

agree with u , I've said the same thing. RG3/KAEPERNICK both had similar offenses and after a full off season they sucked after. Not saying Lamar isn't better than those guys but his system right now is helping a ton

I was shocked Kaepernick made it as long as he did, once defenses put a spy on him he was screwed. He had no touch on his passes, they were all fast balls, not good for throwing over the short middle into the void left by the spy. He is out of the NFL because he was fools gold and quickly exposed. He was also a one read wonder and stared down receivers.

They have no chance of reaching SB. That's a lock. Regular season is just frontrunner fools betting paradise. Pats will beat them

This is the absolute great example of perfect O Coordinator matched with the perfect QB for his system. This is the similar offense to what Kaepernick ran in San Fran....this is Greg Roman offense.

I think it was 30gut a couple years ago who said Jackson was gonna be a great QB...while it looks like he's right, but I bet if they woulda continue to run Marty Mornhiweg's offense for Flacco, I'd bet we would be talking about him being a bust right now. You have to match the skill sets with scheme and strengths.
