Won’t help him when Polamalu comes around the edge and strips him of the ball to seal the game winner – yet again.

Always the bridesmaid!

As you can see, some of our fans are still celebrating our 2 super bowl wins last year. Not me. Being realistic, with all our issues, I predict 7-9 this year at best. Without Suggs, having to rely on 2 OLD defensive stars, and Flacco’s fragile ego, it will be a long season.

Flacco-on-his-back-o is obviously infatuated with the likes of an actual mutli-Superbowl champion quaterback, Ben Roethlisberger, so on-his-back-o is under the impression he is capable, like Ben, of high performance with the no huddle. Please do it Sacko, and watch your season fade away – again.

Keep on hating haters. He sure looked torching Pittsburgh last couple years. Have fun with that quilt blanket of an offensive line.

Its funny how idiots can remember that Flacco completed 57.6% of his passes last year, but always neglect to mention that he was throwing to a brand new rookie starter in Torrey Smith who had no offseason due to the lockout, 2 second year tight ends who caught a whopping 12 passes combined entering last season, and also had brand new pass catchers in Lee Evans and undrafted rookie Laquan Williams. Not to mention released his two go to guys for the first 3 years of his career in Heap and Mason. But no, apparently that chemistry was supposed to already have been there according to moronic trolls.

But I thought Joe Flacccid was already the best QB in the NFL??? At least according to himself…. How could it possibly get any better?

Why is this a headline? Has ANY QB ever said he didn’t like the n0-huddle offense?

Anything anti-Cam Cameron works for me!

We knew how upset Flacco was when Jim Zorn got fired and when it comes to football methodology if the quarterback knows what suits him he should have it his way; only if he’s a passer though.

Hopefully for the Ravens, Flaccid can get his completion % up to 58% this year. That’s brutal considering the defense expects the Ravens to run, and they throw a lot of short dump-offs. And it would be nice if he could hold on to the ball instead of fumbling 11 times again.

I’m concerned about my Bengals if the Ravens go No-Huddle.
The Bengals D is good because they are able to constantly rotate situational guys in and keep the line fresh. We have some DTs built for the run and some built for the pass. I have a feeling they plan to rotate Taylor Mays and Jeromy Miles or Nate Clements at Safety as well depending on down/distance because Mays is better against the run and Miles & Clements are better cover guys.
If the no-huddle works than it could be a rough Monday night.

That should say two aging stars not “some aging stars.” There are two starters over the age of 30. A common misconception of the media. The defense is overall very young.

I’m really surprised it took them this long to do this, Flacco excelled in no-huddle, shotgun formations at Delaware.

Ray Ray better be getting his conditioning straight. A no huddle offense adds can be a good thing. The draw back is if you arnt succesful, your defense is gonna get gassed quick.

The no huddle can add a couple minutes to the game? That only helps your team if the offense is picking up first downs and staying on the field. Otherwise, you’re just killing your defense even more than you already do!

And seriously… Please stop acting like the ravens didn’t throw the ball more because they were conservative. They simply did it because they were good at running the ball and Flacco couldn’t recognize defenses and blitzes.

He still doesn’t understand the concept of the pocket and continued to drop back way too far instead of stepping up to help his own protection.

But hey, supposedly the ravens are “allowing him” to do whatever he wants this year. SO… If he doesn’t get it done this year then no more excuses, RIGHT???!!?!?

My boy Flacco will put up big numbers on offense this year. This year, he’s going to take the next step to becoming elite.

All QBs love the no-huddle b/c usually they get to call their own plays during that time and they will call the things they are comfortable with.

This will elevate Flacco’s game. Flacco has operated in a “defense can win this just don’t lose it for us” since he has been in the league. He has never tried to outscore the other team – like Brady. Flacco has a much better arm than Brady. And finally he has a receiver with Torrey Smith!
