Skins v Ravens - Sat night at 7:30

[sevier2]

With this game in the books can we get an "Official 53 Man Roster Prediction Thread" going?

Curious to see what you lady(s)? and gentlemen think. I've got mine set, just not sure how to post polls and such...

[skinsfaninok]

Miami won't hurt us to bad on offense but that DLINE is scary

Just going to leave this here.

Lucky?
It's a two way street. Goes your way, goes the other. Give me the list of maybe the last three teams you heard....proclaim they got points they did not deserve?
Let's see, KC could easily have cratered as maybe the biggest performance of his career. But....he did not. Even after his INT...he didn't. He played pretty well.
With several....key starters out, we posted (with starters on starters) a winning score at the half and our 2nd and thirds mopped their 2 and 3 squad.
That's...what...went...on
Kick their ass when they deserve, but give a few accolades when deserved...

Lucky catch?? The ball hit Roberts in his hands. At the very least, he should have caught it and it should have been first and goal from about the 8 yard line. At least they were in a position to attempt a touchdown pass. The Offense moved and our QB wasn't getting thrown around like a rag doll. Major improvement.

was at the game & it started to look like it was gonna be a long night...then, *poof*, the 'Skins got a few breaks that went our way.

Kirk looked better than we've seen, but he was still throwing behind guysand I felt he was staring the receivers down still. But, after a rocky start, he finished well.

I didn't read anybody talking about McCoy though.
His passes were really on the mark, leading receivers, putting the ball on the right side of his receivers, etc. He even threw the ball away on a broken play in the red zone...he lived to fight another day & eventually scored.

Really splitting hairs. For a guy who hasn't played with the ones and was in a heated battle just to be a backup, KC had more production in one pre-season game than our proclaimed starter had in 5. With RG3 being the alternative, I don't see how anyone could have anything negative to say about Kirk's performance. Would you really rather have RG3 back there? It's hard to play the position with less competence.

Can't dismiss the fact the INT was bad, and he fumbled a snap, but overall he played well.

Just watched the game and If RGIII had played, with the way the Ravens defense was playing, it would have been a blow out. Ravens would have been ahead by 21 points before the half.
KC was getting heat and by getting rid of the ball quickly KC avoided several sacks. that double clutch, hold on to the ball too long RGIII would have been sacked 4 time before half. Probably would have been injured as well.

The lucky bounce on the TD catch hit Roberts perfectly & should've been caught.

Agree. Hit him in the hands.

I like Jones at RB and I like that KC got the ball out quick and that he didn't wilt after the INT (oy!). D got going once SS and Flaco sat down. Smith was on a 300 yard pace...

It's about what I thought--we're not that bad and we're not that good. I think 6-10 or 7-9 with signs of improvement as we go is a great year. Seriously. Then another round of drafting and FAing with McC. Like that the D is looking stouter in the front, though the back looks familiar, I'm afraid. Ah, well. Rome wasn't built in a day.

PS I frigin hate Harbaugh and enjoyed seeing his whiney ass get chapped as the game went on. Go back and stay on your own fucking sideline, putz. You tell em, Jay!

I agree on all counts.

Exactly. What I liked about that play was there was a free blitzer coming on KC's backside. He had to get rid of it and he put it right on the money.

Our OLine and QB played there best . We had some young guys on Defense play well , Jeffcoat , P. Smith and Jarrett . As far as the fight , bad move by K. Robinson , he will likely get a nice fine from the NFL office .

[Schneed10]

And keep in mind Desean Jackson did not play. He REALLY changes the way defenses play us.

No sacks. The line deserves kudos.
