Ravens vs Raiders, Week 12 Gameday Thread

"Crabtree always a red zone threat"

*Runs route 11 yards short of end zone*

 

That FG drive would likely have been a TD drive if Brown didn't short arm the catch

 

It it's the coaching telling Jackson not to run at all, then they all need to go. They are handcuffing the kid

 

This whole thing is a mess. I dont see any real progression, its almost like they need an on offseason and fresh eyes to just make some basic adjustments to what they already have. It wouldnt even take much to pass on the audibles or options.

Our D is being carried by our Corners so fucking hard, which hasnt been the case if a decade? Our front 7 is pathetic.

WR's cant play to the down and distance still which boggles the mind.

Yeah you can't watch this defense and tell me it passes the eye test. As the rest of the season progresses, we're going to see the rankings continue to drop.

I'm sure Jackson is focused on not running which is stupid because it's what makes him tough to defend.

 

The corners are absolutely carrying the entire defense.

The play calling has been trash. Idk why we were forcing passes.

And you can just tell they pounded "don't run" into Jackson's head.

 

Bad throw. Better and luckier defensive play.

 

They are utter idiots.

He shouldnt run that much but he should be in that 10-15 range with most of those being runs to the outside so he avoids hits.

Also that was an unfortunate interception

The gameplan this week was to call a lot of pass plays and to not use your dual threat QB as a dual threat. Just keep him in the pocket and call deep routes for likely the slowest Ravens WR in two decades

 

Wow, so if you can run plays, and let the QB use his natural talents, against a team with a bad run defense, you can score TDs. Shocking

 

Good shit, its almost like they should have done that since the start.

Jackson is not, and may never be a great pocket passer, but he doesnt have to be, he has to keep them honest and just a step behind.

Odd concept where you play to player strengths and they perform well.

Montgomery looked fast.

 

LOL

all three of us wrote the same shit basically at the same time

Again, just like last week, the defense is playing the NFL Nobodies and still can't get it done.

 

Edwards is one of those backs that can have 2-3 years of great production but boy oh boy is there gonna be some wear and tear on him.

Very decisive, old school.

So the lesson here is, if you let the rookie play his game without restriction, and call a decent set of plays, you can move up and down the field and score

 

There hasn't been much Snead today. I wonder if he got put in the doghouse for blowing up last week. I'm not even sure how much he's been on the field

 

Time to kill the clock. Joe is the better passer right now, but LJ and this run game provide the better opportunity to keep great opposing offenses (like KC) off the field while still scoring points.

Of course all that will be determined by the play calling.....

 

Holy crap a sack and a turnover!!!!!! We need to all remember where we were the day this happened!

 

A sack, a turnover, and a defensive TD all in the same play
