I'm also remembering the Bears game I'm 2015. "Most talented WR Triplet is football! Matt Forte I'm the backfield! This is the year Jay Cutler proves himself!"

I don't think we should underestimate Perriman, Smith and Wallace. But Darby, Gilmore and Seymour should be good enough to handle it without too much safety help. Pitta? Decent, but not game breaking.

I was reading one of the articles from ESPN about how Flacco doesn't expect Rex to blitz him more to see if his knee holds up. That's kind of a dick move to even mention, but they also bring up that Flacco is 31st in the league vs the blitz in the last three years. And they are starting two rookies on the left with Kyle and Hughes. If there is ever a reason to blitz, it's there.

Oh, I like our CBs. But the Ravens had a lot of success last year using TEs and RBs I'm the passing game. (I'm going off what I remember from Turners article). Perriman and Wallace can stretch deep, so I want as much help for our LBS as possible.

Oh, it definitely is. More than Smith. But if Smith is out, their air threat is much more manageable.

Any word on Steve Smith?

Like people have mentioned, mobile apps do not play the game. And for me, the streaming sites do not work well on my computer, only giving me plays three series later. However, this year, i think I'm trying the audio streams they use on NFL rewind.

It's Miami. Does them making dumb coaching moves surprise you?

Per link, Dumervill hasn't practiced since the 22nd. The man is elite. That would make a difference

I believe it.

To be fair, it was true at least through the midpoint of last year. I remember someone breaking down Taylor's TD pass to Karlos in the Jets game, and he waited until he saw Karlos coming free. Now, more time as a starter can help, but a lot of people never make the jump. Taylor still has ways to buy time to help with that, and that he does helps with his really low INT count.

He sounds like a Vitale aquisition.

Can we get back the Ravens? Plz?

I mostly agree. I just worry about the pass rush with no Dareus or Shaq. I was worrying more with Forsett there to gash the middle if they had a healthy Smith, Perriman and Wallace to spread and stretch. Forsett gone? Makes me feel a lot better. And there goes my calm...still, that's a hell of a bargaining position to try to be in.

They felt good enough about Perriman to put him in preseason. Steve Smith is a wild card. My Ravens fan friend raves about him, but he's what, 37? Coming off a double Achilles? There's "ready" Week 1, and being back to your former self.

I am shocked at the Forsett cut. I've been worried about their ability to run when they have burners like Wallace and Perriman. I'll take it!

Just for reference, I have been listening to Philly sports radio the past few weeks. To them, the idea of a successful season was Bradford playing well enough to get a 3rd or 4th round pick, maybe a 2nd if they were lucky. To get a first and conditional fourth is way, way, way beyond what anyone expected to get for him.

Maybe but I'm in Philly area. No way that gets prempted.

I don't get it. Manny waa quietly good for us last year. It made sense to draft Shaq because Manny was in his last year, but with our injuries he was an ideal vet to hold down the fort. They must have really seen someone they liked in Lorenzo Alexander.

And we play them Week 5!!!

@OP: Heads up, you have the home/away reversed with the Pats. I still agree with your final scores.

I am honestly not impressed with their receivers and pass catching TEs. Their #1 WR is Steve Smith, and my Raven fan friend raves over him. But he is 37 and coming off a double Achilles and is currently questionable. Wallace is ok, but I trust Darby in single coverage. Perriman is a burner, but he's getting his first snaps this week. I trust all of our starters in single coverage on them.

And confirmation on Little? I thought he was going to stick.

Wow. Today I was hearing about how Minny was a secret powerhouse. That is devestating to them.

I've heard of him....wait. sorry. Instinct. Does anyone know anything about him? All I know is that he was backing up Vonn Miller, and word is he looked ok on limited snaps. Lawson insurance?
