seriously? fck.. do not like the sounds of that.

I do not know how the Skins planned for the Ravens? Usually week 2 in the preseason is not much about game planning.

Week 3 coaches put together a game plan.

I agree with you...but all points sign to us taking a WR in this next draft? No? Unless a certain Vincent Jackson finds his way to the Skins. They were talking about that all day on the radio that the skins should find a way to pick him up.

Not too worried about this game tonight...it's just pre-season, and the ravens D is not to shabby either!

Not at all but other inadequacies have shown their faces as well. We're facing several good teams.

I wouldn't sell the next draft as a WR honestly. I think that it will depend on draft position a lot. Put us around 20 and we're in position to land the top 1 or 2 WR. Depending on Brown's performance we're at a good position for a RT, if he checks out we'll wait till later for a new G if someone here now doesn't take it over, Hicks should be gone after this year.

I could see us going WR in the 2nd next year.

If we draft early, and they're still on the board, you have to start thinking QB.

yeah QB is always in the back of my mind with an older McNabb...I love the guy, but it'd be nice to find someone he could tutor...not likely we could grab Locker...but I woulnd't mind Andrew Luck from Stanford either.

I'm hoping Jonathan Baldwin from Pitt or Julio Jones from Bama could drop too....never know. I think the consensus is that AJ Green is going to go top 3, and rightfully so.

it's a need, if not this year, then next

I honestly don't know that we'll see a big improvement.. we'll see one.. but how much of a diff will it make?

4 wins to 6? to 8?

is 8-8 worth it?

I give it 2 years

Well, this is the time where u work the kinks out and gel. A little struggling is normal for any new unit, especially with a rookie on the O Line, a new coach and a new QB.

I have a feeling that our line will only get better with each start. It has the capability of being really good, but for now, give em some time.

Would like to see McNabb being a little more accurate tho, that could have been the difference in a couple first downs if he threw it where he should have.

Now it looked to me like Balt blitzed a hell of a lot. I am wondering how much we game planned for that. Maybe the o-line looked weak because we didn't adjust much for that.

Did McNabb get hurt bad? Or is just a sore ankle?

no report, just a taped ankle and a limp

he didn't come out on any particular play

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

I would assume it may be a little more difficult for a new unit playing a defense that has been together for a long time. Like I have metioned many times before the front 7 of the Ravens is great and so are the second team guys.

LJ did himself no favors tonight, iirc the line didn't do him any either

^ not home bro. But thanks

No worries

I'll try to update a some of them for you if I stick around

[tryfuhl]

you'd think the crew could see holds on the o-line, especially with the new ref position, better than they could on a PR

Chase Daniels Playing well tonight for Saints, 31 yard TD pass.
