But I don’t think there’s much left in the tank. But he’s probably better-off with Gabbert throwing him the ball than the likes of Flacco, Trent Edwards, and JP Losman.

Ask yourself this….

If the Bucs came there to play the Bears, how many fans would turn out?

There you go.

Oooooookay. Whatever that means. Ask yourself this….. How is it that fans who calls them Raider Nation have 87 blackouts since moving back to Oakland in 1995? By the way, that’s a rhetorical question.

Evans clearly caught the ball but the db stripped it out before he got his 2nd foot down.

The reason the db was able to get his hand in there is because it was a bad throw. Evans beat his man and flacco could have led hi. For the easy td. But flacco threw it back shoulder and forced Evans to come back for the ball. This gave the db the chance to close ground.

Flacco just makes a convenient scapegoat. The ravens have NEVER been beaten according to their fans and players. It’s always some bad luck or a bad call or the other team got a lucky break. Ravens.. Undefeated every year.

I see what you did there.

Best for all concerned that he move on. Players sometimes muff plays, but he would have heard from Balt fans every time he failed to make a catch.

He’d stack up TDs getting single coverage. Injury must have soured Baltimore on him bad. After all that waiting and paying him, they let him go when he’s finally healthy?

I like it. I’d like to see Taylor Price develop and see a Evans/Robinson/Price 3-man set with MJD in single back.

Best O-lineman in the draft, Gene!

If I remember correctly, your offense had two other great opportunities late in the 4th quarter to take the lead and both were squandered after the interception to Brandon Spikes, and then the throw out of bounds on 4th down.

I do wish him the best of luck because he seems like a good guy, but he left unfinished business here and I think he should have had the cojones to say, I want another chance, let me have it.

All you ppl bashing the Jags can bash away, but time will tell ALL & alot of you in here are bandwagon jumpers anyways. Whether he’s a camp body or a legit threat, I’ll take his straight line speed over some big name receivers. Not to mention he will be working with a legendary WR coach in Sullivan. Damn this is looking better & better.
AT pick 7, the Jags are set for a trade back or an instant starter, Gene is doing a fine job, not to worry Jags fans!!

I hear they covet Melvin Ingram or Q. Coples.

I also think Lee just clearly remember just how bad the Jaguars whipped the Ravens on MNF, and thought he’d just go with the winner.

Remember that play where Baltimore when it was like 4th and 40?

The Ravens, like everyone else in the country, can not get excited about the Jags.

Jags are making moves to get better and compete for the division each week.

Mincey, Robinson, Ross, Landry, Lowry, Mathis, Henne

I know they arent flashy, but all solid. We’ve got a playoff D an O-line getting better WR core that’s building and a 22 y/o QB with a big arm.

We have as good a shot as any team in the division.
