		<description><![CDATA[Ravens are gonna be awful this year....9-7 at best. Steelers will be 14-2.. Cant wait ro crush these ratbirds.. You dont need a mathematician to figure out you guys stink. What a waste	if moey. What you really need is an english teacher for that uneducated team. Coach butchers the language. Listening to a has been safety talk who looks like hes homeless instantly makes me dumber. And flacco is so dumb he couldnt spell cat if you spotted him the c _ t. You try to mimic the steelers but all you do is embarrass yourselves. Classless organization! We own you!]]></description>

Maybe he’ll blow out the cap on a mediocre QB and running back (ha ha ha — WHO DOES THAT ANYMORE – besides ringless teams???), while simultanesously letting their stud OG walk with no backup and roll the dice on a 36 year-old journeyman Center with two bad knees and a 400 pound sack of cookie dough at LT.

==================================

One of the most ignorant posts I&#039;ve ever seen on PFT, congrats that&#039;s quite an accoplishment.

1. Joe Flacco and especially Ray Rice are not mediorce. No one thinks thats.

2. The Ravens are not ringless. Duh...

3. Baltimore&#039;s stud OG is Marshall Yanda, not Grubbs. Grubbs was above average, but they extended Yanda and ignored Grubbs for a reason.

4. Matt Birk is a 6 time pro bowler, with a serious shot at the Hall of Fame. I don&#039;t think anyone agrees with you calling him a journeyman.

5. That 400 lbs sack of cookie dough did a pretty good job of making James Harrison about as effective as a school boy last year. He may be fat, but he&#039;s a solid player. Better than what the Steelers have at tackle anyway.]]></description>

      Yes Flacco has the highest winning percentage in his first 4 yours . But you have to admit if you arent a homer . 30% of Flaccos wins are won inspite of him not cause of him . 


           Put Matty Ice on the Ravens and how do you think they fair ? Same ? Little worse ? Better ? Dont know . But either do you .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is why the Ravens are an elite team in the NFL. They think outside the box. Before Harbuagh, was their ever a coach who went from a special teams coordinator to a Head Coach? The Ravens hired off ability rather than former title, and it&#039;s worked out great.

The Ravens adapt like no other team. How many Defensive coordinators have they had over the last decade? A lot, and they&#039;re still able to maintain a top 5 defense each and every year.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@hulkhogansays - ok, pencil neck, why don&#039;t you ask the steelers and the pats what they think of flacco.  The guy has the highest winning percentage of any qb in nfl history in his first 4 years and has won playoff games in each of his 4 years. Meanwhile Marty ice chosen 15 spots in front of him is o&#039;fer the playoffs lifetime. So tell me, are you ignorant or just stupid]]></description>
