Bing Bong Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 We need better route running. John Brown beating his man in man coverage should be able to complete on a crossing route 9/10. Opposing CBs are killing our guys on this should-be-easy read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was by more than 5 yards on two of them. He didn't miss the deep pass to Brown. They were not on the same page. Looked to me like Allen thought he would run straight up the seam but Brown ran a little outside. If you're going to blame Allen for anything today it's that he didn't make quick decisions with the ball and couldnt beat the blitz. As usual I have trouble judging those plays in real time, I'll have to see what the all-22 shows. One play in particular I remember seeing Singletary open in the flat but Allen didn't look his way and ended up getting sacked. Other than that, in real time I didn't see anything open that he was missing. Edited December 8, 2019 by HappyDays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He turned on the jets to late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hit the same tight throw to Beasley later on but Beasley dropped it. The miss to Knox was very bad, no excuse for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToGoGo Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I wonder what the coaching staff is seeing, or not seeing, in practice to keep Duke inactive. Does anybody here have any suspicions about what it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beasley catches everything too.....not There's plenty of tape on Duke Williams to know his strengths, and weaknesses. Reliable hands are surely one of his strengths. But, it's pretty weird to say that he won't be able to catch a fast ball because he is tall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirAndrew Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 We need a playmaker at the WR position, but people also underestimate how difficult it can be to find one. WR’s are notorious for being slow to adjust to the pro game, and many “sure things” never make it. The Ravens passing game is mostly dependent on TE’s, and they have no receivers who strike fear into anyone. I’m all in favor of trying to improve our receiver corps, but I’d also invest in improving this disaster of an oline. These guys get pushed around on a weekly basis, and we’ll never be able to assess Allen or the running game until that is remedied . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not him it’s the fast balls Beasley also couldn't get separation today-- something he is also good at. Neither could Smoke, or Motor, or McK. The Ravens played tight, tight coverage today. That's why I kept thinking of Duke-- big, strong, and an ability to fight in tight coverage and come down with the ball. That is his wheelhouse. Ya hear me @GunnerBill!

It is,puzzling that Dimarco plays yes he is good,on ST but I see nothing of him as a lead blocker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
