“In Ozzie We Trust”. I had spent much of the weekend whining about the loss of Boldin and then at 5Pm Sunday, Baltimore was hit with the best news since February 3rd–the best free agent pass rusher in the NFL will now combine with Terrell Suggs to produce the new Baltimore Sack Pack. Perhaps this will dictate Game 1 of the season as rematch of the greatest games ever … Read More »
Listen, I have always said In Ozzie We Trust. But wow, I just cannot believe that Anquan Boldin is gone. I guess the ravens meant what they said. It looks like Kruger ($12 Million to the Colts), Ellerbe ($6+ mill to the Browns) Listen, I have always said In Ozzie We Trust. But wow, I just cannot believe that Anquan Boldin is gone. … Read More »
“Without him, we don’t win the Super Bowl. He’s a huge part of this team and someone I want to see back,” Flacco, who signed a six-year, $120.6 million contract this offseason, told USA Today. “Obviously, when you’re a player of his caliber, you believe you’re worth a number and that’s what you should get. He’s going to stick to his guns, and that’s the way it should be.”
Boldin’s response to the pressure to accept a salary cut makes … Read More »

The good: Ellerbe was the Ravens’ best defensive player by the end of the team’s Super Bowl run. This season, he finished second on the team in tackles (89) and sacks (4.5). Ellerbe is athletic and aggressive who is just hitting his stride as an every-down player.
The bad: His attitude and work ethic have been a problem at times. He has been known to be late … Read More »
Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco huddled with his agent, Joe Linta, on Sunday to go over the finer points of his $120.6 million contract that includes a $29 million signing bonus and a total of $52 million in guaranteed money.
Now, the details of the contract have been finalized. Among them: $30 million paid out in the first year, $51 million in the first two years and $62 million in the first three years, topping Drew Brees’ $61 million payout in the first … Read More »
Is there anyone in my reading audience who thinks that Geno Smith or Matt Barkley could replace Joe Flacco? Maybe they could but the odds are so strong against that proposition. This might be the dumbest contingency I have ever heard presented. Don’t we ever learn from our mistakes.#99 can be replaced. #29 can be replaced. #88 can be replaced. McKinnie–I am not sure about. #20 and #81 would be brutal to lose. BUT LOSING #5 would damage this franchise … Read More »

An incredible victory concluded an incredible season for the Ravens. This is the story of Baltimore and how intertwined the Ravens and the city have become. In typical nail biting fashion the Ravens surviving.
What a way for Ray Lewis’ career to end –a goal line stand to secure the victory. I thought Jim Harbaugh’s play selection at 1st and goal from the 7 was horrendous. The mis direction runs had been unstoppablle all day yet 3 passes that … Read More »
This Super Bowl will forever be remembered for Deer Antler Spray. Why? Because this will be the straw that puts the Ravens on top. Imagine that someone criticized someone you love. Told half truths and intended to ruin their reputations. And then you have a chance to avenge the criticism. Listen Ray Rice, Torrey Smith, and too many more Ravens to mention worship 52. Deer antler spray.
I do believe that their will be many surprises tomorrow. The brothers will … Read More »
