    Let me get this straight - offense

    So new England can roll in year after year and shred our top ranked defense by spreading us out and we have no answer until we step up and play tough man in the secondary, the best offensive production we have had all season is with a spread quick strike approach, but the Ravens roll into town & instead of spreading them out forcing man, we turtle up bigtime? Do we not have a top 3 QB & a plethora of quick wr? Yes sanders is out & Hines hampered, but we still have Wallace, brown, cotchery, Grisham who is small & quick, & Heath. Our better option is slow developing passes & mendenhall?

    Stay pattern is the dumbest f'n play. We have almost been picked on that once a game minimum and finally are.

      What about the D?

      Flacco has outplayed Ben the majority of the time since his rookie year.

      I really wanted to believe that the Ravens were having QB problems, that Flacco wasn't the answer, but I am getting sick of him always playing his best ball against us, and then stinking it up against the Jets or Jaguars or anyone else.

      Bottom line, you can always count on the Ravens to bring their absolute best against us. You can count on the Steelers to do it maybe half the time.

        Just because it worked against the Pathetic Pat D means nothing in this game.

        EVERYBODY torches the Pats. They just outscore people.

        In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

          Amazingly miss lemming, we move the ball in the second half spreading them with no huddle. Only a clown would argue it!

                  Yes he is on the ps, & with sanders out & Hines jacked up with a ankle prior to the ray ray helmet shot, maybe after the success of spreading it out last week a gameplan of that would of been best considering we moved the ball well spreading them out in the second half.

                    you realize the ravens defense is better than new englands right?

                    tyler grisham is a nothing in a game like that.

                      Speaking Of the ps

                      I must have missed the latest signing. Another WR. Made the jags roster out of camp

                      Like the looks of him in some u tube vids. Quick/fast and a LIL better size then the YMC

                        What wr did NE use to shred our top ranked D time after time? It isn't specifically the wr, which wallace & brown alone are better then any tandem the pats used. It's about alignments & matchups. Ben likes Arians because he is the fat chic that put out to him at the prom. Not because of the quality of lay.

                          Welker did not go to the combine. His pro day was 4.6, as was Grisham's. 4.6 is a SLOW time for an NFL receiver. 40 times are a measure of speed not quickness.

                          Welkers measurable are not impresive. Hundreds of high school receivers have those measurables or better. Having Welkers 40 time is nothing special. 5.10 guys who run a 4.6 are not hard to find and are never going to be drafted highly.

                          Welker is an awesome receiver but he plays WAY BEYOND what the measurables would predict. He is a rarity.
                          To say a guy has his 40 time is by no means impressive.

                            I am merely pointing out measurable speed does not measure quickness nor was I saying Grisham could hold welkers jock, & u know it. I am merely pointing out that the pats can shred a top ranked d playing zone with a top QB & worse talent then our offensive weapons.
