Ravens:
Flacco 3 INTs and credit the WR’s with 2 more. 5 Giveaways. Do you really deserve to win when you do that? That aside, I was really ticked off at the game ending penalty on Suggs. If the QB is delaying to burn more seconds, and we are trying to end the play as quickly as possible and the Offensive line is blocking for the QB, then HE’S FAIR GAME!!! I’ve seen Peyton Manning fake a kneel down, and then pitch a TD pass. Stop babying the QB. That call was wrong, and I stand by it. We shouldn’t have even been in the game at that point, so we are fortunate to have lost by 3 to Buffalo… that’s right, Buffalo. This one could really haunt us.
Problems persist on the run blocking front (or lack thereof). Receivers are playing volleyball. Defense made a rookie QB look good. I guess there is some work to be done this week, against a Miami football club that is coming off a prime time embarrassment on Monday night. Ravens are 0-2 on the road this season. A lot of factors ain’t giving me the warm fuzzies about this game, so be loud down there, and let them know you have their backs. They are gonna need it!
The NFL is looking into expanding the post season to 14 teams, and reducing the preseason to 3 games. This means that only the #1 seed would get a bye, and opens up the potential of starting the season a week earlier, and include 2 bye weeks per team.
